High Waist Jean Short

These plum faux-leather shorts sit high on the waist with a sharp, abbreviated 10-inch inseam that prioritizes a clean, leg-lengthening line. The midweight polyurethane provides a structured, slightly rigid hold, mimicking the utility of classic five-pocket denim while leaning into a high-gloss, evening-ready aesthetic. It is a direct nod to 1980s sportswear minimalism—bold, pragmatic, and intentionally graphic.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: Composed of 100% polyurethane, these shorts are a petroleum-based plastic product with zero breathability, which can trap heat and moisture against the skin. The synthetic construction carries a high risk of chemical leaching and microplastic shedding during wear and laundering.
