Summary

Lululemon Unrestricted Power High-Rise Tight scores 12/100. A 100% synthetic legging with three distinct plastic fiber types across its construction. The body is 71% nylon and 29% Lycra Elastane — nearly a third elastane, one of the highest proportions in this category. The pocket lining adds 90% recycled polyester and 10% Lycra Elastane. Recycled polyester still sheds microplastics identically to virgin polyester. Three synthetic fiber types means three separate leaching vectors in direct skin contact across the full lower body. No natural fiber content, no organic or sustainable certifications.
