Zippo Lighters and Accessories
Zippo Manufacturing Company began producing its distinctive windproof pocket lighter in Bradford, Pennsylvania, in 1933. The basic design combines a durable metal case, hinged lid, replaceable flint and wick, refillable fuel reservoir, and chimney surrounding the flame.
Cigars N Cigars carries Zippo lighters across military, patriotic, commemorative, and emblem designs along with selected lighter accessories. Because many Zippo models share the same basic lighter platform, finish, decoration, emblem, and insert type are useful points of comparison when choosing among available models.

U.S. Military Zippo Lighters
Military designs make up a substantial portion of the current Cigars N Cigars Zippo selection. Available models represent the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard, with multiple graphic and emblem variations for several service branches.

Patriotic and Commemorative Zippo Lighters
The Zippo platform is also produced with patriotic, sports, and commemorative artwork. Current inventory includes American-themed designs and limited-interest commemorative models alongside the military collection, providing alternatives to standard solid-finish Zippo lighters.
Zippo Lighter Inserts
Zippo offers interchangeable inserts that allow compatible classic lighter cases to use different ignition systems. Options produced by Zippo include the traditional windproof insert, yellow-flame butane, single- and double-torch butane, pipe inserts, and rechargeable arc designs. Compatibility varies by lighter case and insert.
Zippo Butane Torch Inserts for Cigars
Zippo's butane torch inserts replace the standard insert in compatible classic Zippo cases and produce an odorless blue torch flame. Single- and double-torch versions provide a different flame system from the traditional liquid-fuel windproof insert and can be useful when a concentrated flame is preferred.
Where Are Zippo Lighters Made?
Classic Zippo windproof lighters are manufactured in Bradford, Pennsylvania, where the company has produced its famous pocket lighter since the 1930s. Some accessory inserts, including current butane torch inserts, are manufactured outside the United States, so country of manufacture should be checked at the individual product level.
The Zippo Lifetime Guarantee
Zippo's traditional pocket lighters are backed by the company's lifetime mechanical guarantee. Zippo states that a pocket lighter returned to the factory will be restored to proper mechanical operation regardless of its age. Other products and accessory inserts can carry different warranty terms.
Choosing a Zippo Lighter
Start with the case design or theme, then consider the preferred ignition system. A traditional Zippo windproof lighter provides the classic liquid-fuel configuration, while compatible replacement inserts can provide yellow-flame butane, torch, pipe, or rechargeable ignition. Military and emblem models offer the same familiar Zippo format with service-specific designs.
