Preston Shorts
Astr The Label - $65
These shorts lean into a structured, menswear-inspired silhouette, utilizing a crisp herringbone weave to hold the shape of the front pleats. The high-waist cut and vertical cream-and-navy stripes create a sharp, elongated line that functions best when tucked into a slim knit or a crisp shirt. It is a nod to 1940s tailoring, stripped of excess and updated for a modern city uniform.
Safety Rating: Lowest
Analysis: Composed of 65% polyester, this garment is primarily a petroleum-based plastic fiber which limits breathability and contributes to microplastic shedding. The dry-clean-only requirement suggests the use of chemical solvents that may linger on the fabric, further reducing its biocompatibility.
