The Tie-Dye Dungaree Short Kids

The composition is stated as 100% organic cotton twill, made in India, with no elastane or synthetic content in this style. The organic status is named but without a product-level certificate number attached to this specific garment.

We found no published specification for this short's snaps, seams, or trims, and no brand statement on reinforced fastening or flat-seam construction for this or an adjacent style. A detached button and a torn seam were reported on a different denim garment from this brand, not on this short.

No dye-chemistry or azo-safety claim is published for this tie-dyed cotton twill garment; ZDHC-compliant dye claims only cover the brand's knitwear line, leaving this garment's dye chemistry undisclosed.

GOTS certification is claimed for the manufacturing partner (Vetrivel Tex, Tirupur) rather than stated as covering this finished garment with a product-level certificate number, so the claim sits at the supplier-facility level rather than the finished short itself.

We queried the CPSC recall database across its full 1973–2026 corpus and found no record naming this brand in any role. The query's control terms (diaper, crib, stroller, toy, pacifier) confirm children's apparel-adjacent categories are covered, so the clean result reflects genuine absence.

The garment's manufacturing partner, Vetrivel Tex in Tirupur, India, carries a named GOTS licence number (CU 1148978) published for that facility, and this exact certification is asserted directly for this product's production. No registry lookup was performed, but the named, numbered certificate is a strong, specific claim.

The care instructions for this cotton twill short call only for a cold machine wash with no mention of wrinkle-resistant, non-iron, or stain/water-repellent finishing, and its softening is done by carbon-brushing instead of chemical finishing treatments.

Cold-wash, inside-out care instructions are published for cotton denim/twill pieces, but nowhere does the brand instruct buyers to pre-wash this garment before first wear to remove residual finishes or sizing.

The Simple Folk names the factory behind its garments, with that factory's GOTS licence number, and publishes a traceability page that follows the cotton back to named farms and notes where certification is still in progress. Some garments give a country of manufacture that conflicts with the factory named for them, and no warranty or repair route is published.

The straps close with brushed brass buttons and the fabric carries a tie-dye wash, so both a metal hardware question and a dye-chemistry question exist here, but no nickel-free/lead-free hardware claim or dye-safety method is published for this specific garment.
