Richie Contrast Short

These yellow shorts borrow their architecture from vintage track gear, featuring a sharp, contrast-piped trim that hugs the leg opening and side seams. The polyester weave maintains a crisp, structured shape that sits away from the thigh, while the hidden side zip keeps the waistband clean and flat against the hip. It is a nod to 70s leisurewear, stripped down to a high-saturation, athletic-leaning silhouette.

Safety Rating: Lowest

Analysis: This item is constructed from 100% polyester, a petroleum-based synthetic fiber that lacks natural breathability and moisture-wicking capabilities. The material's reliance on plastic polymers presents a high potential for microplastic shedding and limited airflow against the skin during movement.
