About the original
Zippo has made its windproof lighter in Bradford, Pennsylvania since George G. Blaisdell built the first one in 1932, taking the case shape from an Austrian lighter and adding the hinged lid and chimneyed windscreen that still define it. The mechanism has not changed since, the all-metal case is refillable, and every unit carries the company lifetime guarantee. The Classic Street Chrome is the baseline model, with a $19.95 list price. The Supreme FW26 lighter is that same case wrapped in Realtree Hardwoods camouflage, a licensed hunting pattern Zippo has printed on lighters for decades, with a box logo across the front panel.
About Zippo
Zippo is an American lighter manufacturer founded in 1932 by George G. Blaisdell in Bradford, Pennsylvania. Blaisdell adapted an Austrian windproof lighter into a rectangular brass case with a hinged lid, filed the original patent in 1934, and received patent number 2,032,695 in 1936. The lighter sold for $1.95 with a lifetime guarantee that still applies to every Zippo. The company has produced over 600 million lighters at the same Bradford factory and remains owned by Blaisdell's descendants. Supreme has collaborated with Zippo on box-logo, all-over print, glow-in-the-dark, Swarovski crystal, and Emilio Pucci and Spectrum iridescent versions of the standard windproof lighter.
