    Don’t forget everyone… It’s not the manufacturers fault, it’s YOURS for not recycling properly and not reusing your packaging that comes with every purchase!

            Plastic clothes (polyesther) are basically inescapable now as well, and a huge source of microplastics.

              It was really depressing when I found that Pendleton, literally THE wool store, is mostly dealing in poly-wool blends now. That completely defeats the purpose of the wool?? A breathable fabric that stays warm when wet for winter, but can also keep you cool in summer? Yeah, let’s just shove some plastic in there. Fucking capitalist brain-rot of these companies, man.

              EDIT: I wanted to chime back in and correct myself. Good news everyone, Pendleton’s clothes seem to be mostly all either wool or cotton again! I don’t know what was going on when I looked like a year ago, but they seem to have fixed their fuckery. I’ve never been happier to be wrong.
