Shein mocked for outrageous leather thong shorts that look like 'loin cloth'

A tiny pair of leather thong shorts have had Shein shoppers in stitches, with some comparing the outrageous item to a "loin cloth". The £12.99 cropped shorts aren't much bigger than underwear, complete with a thong-style back.

The daring ‘Apperloth A Pocket Patched PU Leather Shorts’ come in sizes 6 to 16, and brave wearers can opt for a black, silver, or tan shade. Shoppers have been left wincing at the thought of the minuscule shorts, and have been surprised to see that they actually come with handy pockets.

One person quipped, "There's pockets for your yeast infection cream! Hell yes!", while another marvelled, "The fact that the pockets are real…" A third shuddered: "When women ask for pockets, WE DON'T MEAN THIS ONES!"
