Maria Slim Bootcut Jean

These EB Denim jeans lean into the mid-aughts aesthetic with a low-rise waist and a sharp, whiskered fade that mimics years of natural wear. The heavyweight denim holds a structured, slightly flared silhouette through the leg, punctuated by tactical distressing that breaks up the deep Suntory wash. It is a calculated take on the vintage-hunting ethos, trading the fragility of true archival finds for a more durable, daily-wear construction.

Safety Rating: Fair

Analysis: The composition is primarily organic cotton, which is highly biocompatible and breathable. However, the inclusion of 1% elastane—a petroleum-based synthetic fiber—prevents a top-tier rating due to the presence of plastic polymers against the skin.
