Cotton fibers from repeated washes and clothing waste are also terrible though. In my case, one pair of synthetic outdoor or workout pants lasts over a decade while a pair of cotton jeans or khakis has the crotch chewed out within months. As far as I understand the math on the environmental impact, it’s more about using the same items for as long as possible than what material those items are.
Wool balls do not work with synthetics.
Synthetics are terrible anyway
