Shorts with Drawstring 100% Organic Cotton NATURAL Hypoallergenic Grown and MADE IN USA.
Certified Organic 100% Cotton Shorts with DRAWSTRING Waistband NATURAL Hypoallergenic - Grown and MADE IN USA. Sized very SLIM - especially in the hips .... so order UP one or two sizes. They WILL shrink! These 100% Organic Cotton Drawstring Shorts are natural in color, and you can see the flecks of cotton throughout them. Natural means NO DYES and NOT BLEACHED - which allows our chemical sensitive customers to have shorts they can relax in and wear comfortably. Hypoallergenic. This WILL shrink about 5% (which is about 1 inch in width, and 1 1/2 inches in length). These NATURAL Drawstring Shorts gets softer and more cozy with every wash, which will keep you wanting to wear it all night and all day long! Note, they will feel stiff when you first get it, but as soon as it's washed, the softness begins! Soft and relaxed, yet durable and versatile. This is NOT pre-shrunk, so check the size chart before ordering, as IT WILL SHRINK (the size chart lists PE-SHRUNK measurements ... so IT WILL SHRINK from the measurements listed), and we recommend washing in cold water and line drying - and wash with similar color items for the first couple times. Remember, this is sized SMALL SLENDER .... so order with this in mind.

Certified Organic Cotton • Crop-to-Garment • USA
SOS From Texas is one of the rare U.S. crop-to-garment operations — growing certified organic cotton on their own Texas farms and carrying that cotton through the supply chain into finished apparel. This farm-to-fabric approach prioritizes traceability and quality by starting with cotton they grow themselves.
The cotton grown by SOS From Texas is certified organic by the Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) under the USDA National Organic Program (7 CFR Part 205).

Note: “USDA Organic” here refers to the certified organic cotton and farm operation. Finished-garment labeling depends on how the full manufacturing chain is certified.
USDA Organic certification can apply to agricultural materials (like cotton) and to the processing/handling chain. While the cotton in this garment is certified organic, using “USDA Organic” as a finished-garment claim typically requires the key handling and manufacturing steps (for example: ginning, spinning, fabric production, and cut-and-sew) to be certified under the USDA National Organic Program as well. If any one of those is not organic certified, the garment cannot be labelled with the USDA Organic.
Many responsible textile facilities are not certified under USDA organic handling rules, even when they work with certified organic cotton. We prefer to be completely transparent about what “organic” means at each step — starting with the certified organic cotton itself.
Using undyed, unbleached cotton can reduce chemical processing, which we love — but USDA organic labeling is still primarily about certified chain-of-custody through handling/processing steps. So the absence of dyes doesn’t automatically make the finished garment eligible for “USDA Organic” labeling unless the required operations are certified where applicable.
Minor components like sewing thread, labels, and trims are common in apparel and can be compatible with organic-content standards depending on the labeling category and applicable rules. In our case, the organic claim we make is focused on the certified organic cotton used in the garment.
To avoid confusion, we do not use the USDA Organic seal as a finished-garment badge on this product page unless the full garment supply chain is certified for that use. Instead, we document and link the farm-level organic certification (Organic Integrity Database verification) so you can confirm the certified organic cotton origin.
If you’d like, we can also add a separate “About Our Organic Cotton” section (away from the Buy Box) where the USDA seal is shown clearly as a farm/cotton certification reference — without implying the garment itself is certified.
