Summary
Layere Organic Cotton High-Rise 4-Inch Shorts scores 95/100. Non-toxic everyday activewear built on 95% GOTS-certified organic cotton with 5% spandex — no polyester and no nylon anywhere in the garment, including the double-layer waistband. GOTS certification covers the full supply chain, so the fabric is free from toxic dyes, harsh chemical finishes, and PFAS, and the piece is ethically made. The 5% spandex is the minimum needed for the contoured fit and flat seams to hold their shape — a functional necessity in clean activewear rather than a filler synthetic. Organic cotton is breathable, biodegradable, and sheds no microplastics. These shorts have a high-rise cut.
