FUCK POLYESTERWhy the FUCK would i want to wear plastic?FUCK blended fabricsFUCK nylon, acrylic, spandex, rayon, and ESPECIALLY fuck FLEECETOTAL SPANDEX DEATHTOTAL FLEECE DEATHWE MUST SECURE AN EXISTENCE AND FUTURE FOR COTTON, WOOL, AND LINEN
buy fabric, make your own clothes, win. There are very good 100% natural fibre fabrics available in the hobby sector
>>18564113I like my peter millar golf polos and rlx golf polos tho
>>18564118I have been genuinely looking into this and might do it. Im not great at sewing but who care. which stores specifically can i get cotton, or maybe even wool by the square foot?
>your coat made with plastics
>>18564113I agree, but I have this 100% synthetic long sleeve shirt from Uniqlo that I really like and want to continue wearing.
all my clothes are thrifted natural fibers. The amount of never-worn high quality brand name stuff people buy and then give away is insane if you live in a rich area.

>>18564153You also want to continue jerking off to tranny porn, but that's not a healthy habit either. Stop it. Get some help. Say no to plastic slop. A man without principles is worse than an animal.
What's wrong with fleece?
>>18564123I can tell you more about European stores, or UK
>>18564113I find it ok in some outerwear, for anything in contact with the skin it's a disgrace though
>>18564113>I don't practice any sport nor engage in any amount of physical activity where I would benefit from wearing technical pieces for their moisture wicking, lightness breathability or stretch propertiesColor me shocked.
>abstains from technical fabrics>drives with his windows down
>>18564123>by the square foot?You don't buy fabrics by square foot, you buy them but running meter or yard, where the width is set by the mill and price is per a meter of that width.Leather you buy by square decimeters, the whole animal or half of it with an estimate of square decimeter.
>>18564323>>18564327>calls smelly plastic "technical"
>>18564323Not OP but I lift in old cotton t shirts and shorts. I hike and camp with wool clothes and leather boots. FUCK polyester FUCK nylon, I'd rather make my life difficult than wear plastic trash
>>18564323People have been playing sports in cotton and wool clothes for decades. That pic is from a cricket test match which goes on for 5 straight days for nearly 10 hours per day under hot sun. So STFU about your "technical" plastic slop. Nobody needs it.
>>18564401Shit argument. People have wiped their asses with their hands for a hundred thousand years, doesn't make toilet paper useless.
>>18564412Your shitty plastic slop makes people smell like literal shit. That's reason enough to flush it down the shitter. And no, "muh moisture wicking" is marginally better in plastic clothes than with cotton. It's not that much of an advantage. And regular people absolutely don't need "muh moisture wicking" clothes everyday. Just stop being an unfit fatfuck who sweats like a pig just from breathing.
>>18564383you take it off after you're done with your physical activityor would you rather do it in a completely soaked through cotton shirt? no, you do that in winter and you fucking die from hypothermia dumbass
i wear a cotton shirt and cotton drawers when i workout, but im not wearing cotton shorts, what the fuck. i'll just use swishy nike shorts for the 45-60 minutes i need them, lol.and why wouldnt i want synthetics for hardwearing outerwear? i like when rain just slicks right off a plastic shell. thats cool. yes i know you can wax stuff but sometimes you dont want to look all barbour jackety.
>>18564113merino wool that is washable usually has plastics btw not required to be listed on label
>>18564465Plastic is fine for outerwear for rain and snow since it's not touching your skin for the most part.
>>18564197Well, yeah, but I can't just throw it out. I'm just going to be more mindful of the material composition of the clothing I buy going forward.
>>18564466Pure merino on base layers rips easily anyway. They are the most comfortable shit ever in cold weather but I've lost count of shirts and thermal leggings that got holes in them after a year or less if I do anything more strenuous than walk around town with them. Doesn't matter if it's from Icebreaker or smaller brands.
Polyester has unironically become underrated nowPeople don't seem to realize polyester shirts can have amazing drape and never fade
>>18564113Autism threadEveryone into textiles knows that blends are great for performance and durabilityAutist kek
>>18564124Nigga that’s wool and just needs an ironing retard
>>18564681At the cost of being flammable as hell
>>18564689(((Everyone)))
>>18564759Yes
>>18564984Plastic clothes aka polyster turns into microplastics dust every second and falls apart after washes. Plastic clothes are second only to car tires as a source of microplastics in the oceans. and you call that durable? performance, yes perhaps that is can be argued that it does better performance. However, personally i am willing to sacrifice a small increase in performance by NOT wearing gasoline. fuck your gasoline clothes bro. you don't have to be autistic to not fuck with polyester.
>>18564113i'm sorry you're too poor to have experienced good syntheticsthere are good and bad plasticsthere are good and bad cotton/wool/linens (esp the latter two)plastic bad is such a clueless take
>>18565102The worst, itchiest, roughest wool shirt is millions of times better than the best plasticlothes. Plastic is unironically terrible.
>>18565099>you call that durableBro 88% wool 12% spandex is comfortable and softFuck the ocean yn
>>18565390If there was a beautiful cake and the chef said he put a teaspoon of cow feces in the batter before cooking, would you eat it?
I am careful with synth fiber. I do not outright condemn it but when I see that there is some in the garment I fancy I think twice and even three times whether I actually want to have it
>>18565534Based careful considerer
So how strict are the labelling requirements for garment tags? Does "100% cotton" actually mean it is 100% made out of cotton? And who's checking to see if they're lying?
>>18565503Cow feces doesn’t elevate the flavour of buttercream, so no.
>>18565573There's plenty of stuff that can legally end up in the finished product, if it's deemed necessary for production, even in a highly regulated place like the EU. Don't trust the label, find manufacturers you can trust.
>>18564113See how good you feel in -30 with cotton and wool lol. If you don't want to walk around in an animal hide like a freak then synthetics are superior to every natural fiber.
>>18565962The most mentally disabled and retarded mongolian walking around wrapped in yak skin completely mogs the smartest metrosexual polyasster arcteryx wearer
>>18565390Nigger, what the fuck do you need spandex in wool for? Just don't be a degenerate fatfuck and stop wearing skintight clothes.
>>18565979To subsidize my plastic company.
>>18565099I've been phasing plastic clothing out of my wardrobe for the past few years. All that is left are several pairs of cotton/spandex blended pants and a few synthetic outerwear items.
