Chambord Zip Short

These shorts are rendered in a dense, olive-toned faux suede that holds a rigid, high-thigh silhouette. The construction leans into a moto-inspired utility, punctuated by horizontal silver-tone zippers at the hips that break up the matte surface. It is a sharp, compact cut that anchors the fluid, sun-drenched ease typical of Sydney dressing with a dose of tactile structure.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: This garment is constructed from 100% polyester, a petroleum-based plastic fiber that lacks natural breathability and may trap heat against the skin. The use of faux suede further suggests a synthetic polymer coating, which presents a higher risk for microplastic shedding and limited moisture management.
