Damn most of our clothes are literally plastic
>>18606982yeah, it's pretty cool
just yours actually not mine because i'm a smart shopper and i don't buy garbage
>>18606998brainwashed
>>18606982you can get 100% cotton everything very cheaply if you shop around.
>>18606982There is literally nothing wrong with polyester>Affordable>Good wind and water resistance>Way more durable than cotton>Moisture-wicking and antibacterial so you won't feel all gross and sweaty
>>18606982Who cares? Our bodies are becoming more plastic by the day anyway.
>>18606982Most of YOUR clothes. I don't buy any clothes unless they're 100% cotton or any other natural fibers. Plastic is acceptable only for waterproofing outerwear.>>18607254>Who cares? Just eat shit because there's shit in your intestines anyway.
>>18607013fucking kek
>>18607243>There is literally nothing wrong with polyesterI know you probably mean well, but you are completely wrong. The majority of microplastics in the ocean come from the textile industries. Microplastics leech into your skin even through contact. Microplastics disrupt your endocrine system and cause all sorts of problems we are only just now realizing.
>>18606982Yeah, and it's shit. Punish the garbage-peddlers by putting the effort in to find proper cotton, wool, leather and linen clothes.
>>18607243>AffordableYes, garbage is free.>Good wind and water resistanceNo, not really. >Way more durable than cottonYeah, so you can suffer wearing plastic for longer.>Moisture-wicking and antibacterial so you won't feel all gross and sweatyQuite the opposite, it keeps moisture and skin oils in so you develop fungal infections in the summer if you wear it as an inner layer.I just don't get it, is this a weak bait? What do you even gain out of shilling plastic clothes? Hope this is a nike/adidas bot.
>>18607243basedyou're not gonna get rational replies on /fa/ though since most of the shitposters here spent their life savings on a shitty suit and have to justify their purchase lest they become an hero
>>18607243ThisImagine listening to a bunch of faggots talking about buying 2 pair of cotton socks for $60 being something to brag about when price unironically got artificially inflated in the last 2 centuries by clothing industries...Why bother when I can have 9 pairs of half cotton half polyester for $10 that would last me 3 years just fine ?
My fleece is made from roadside recovered pissbottles and was only $178. I fucking love saving the planet and looking fresh.
>>18608993>he doesn't have a eco-friendly jacket made from anons cumsocks that he ordered on the other side of the globe
>>18608993yellow is based and underutilized in fashion
>>18606982only if you really don't care about yourselfmaterials are always listed, cotton isn't (much) more expensive than plasticsonly buy cotton. linen, various types of wool, bamboo (not rayon), hemp, jute, silk, and leather>>18607243>correct>debatable>wrong>dead fucking wrong
>>18609000the cumsock joint was pretty limited desuI do have the all soilent hard to open edition puffer parka though.
>>18606982Not mine. I don't buy that trash. Only normies are wearing plastic clothes
>>18607243Synthetics are used because they're cheaper. That's it. Any "miracle fabric" "sport fabric" "dri-lux" whatever bullshit is pure marketing nonsense to make you believe they're actually good and not just used to make the product cheaper
>>18608950>I just don't get it, is this a weak bait? What do you even gain out of shilling plastic clothes? Hope this is a nike/adidas bot.Literally yes. You don't recognize the same tired troll posts over and over?
>>18606982It looks and feels like shit. I pay for linen, hemp, wool, cotton for anything that touches my skin directly but plastic is fine for an outer layer
>>18609013Truth be told, they have their place. Even I have to agree they are good windproof outer layers (as long as they are water/windproofed with whatever sprays they use nowadays) and also good as workwear because there is no point in ruining actual good clothes with paint and concrete. Other than that, no.
>>18609013Is there a natural material that's as quick drying as plastic trash?
>>18609272Wool performs comparably per pound to well-engineered fleece in cold weather. It's either just as good as or better than polyester as a warm/breathable base layer as well, depending on the study and use case.In warm or hot weather, though, nothing compares to the plastic fantastic fabrics.
>>18609013Coolmax and Gore-Tex are legit. If anything, a lot of natural fabrics are pure marketing hype. Look at the off-shilled merino wool, it doesn't offer any functional advantage over synthetic performance fabrics but is orders of magnitude more expensive and difficult to maintain.
>>18609286It doesn’t rot in a landfill for 10,000 years without degrading you fucking retard
>>18609309what is the tactical advantage of having clothes that rot quickly?
>>18609284The fuck, in hot weather linen is king not plastic
>>18609312They don't shrink your testicals and turn you trans. Unless that is part of your tactics.
>>18609324lol ok bud put on your linen yardwork shirt
>>18609326bro you grew up teething on plastic toys and wearly polyesther. the damage is already done if there was any at all.
>>18609327>yardwork
>>18609352Sirs is these true?? This is bad but chalta hai
>>18609372>hes right but i dont have to admit it and i dont actually care about the truth at all i just like the vibes of hating plastic
>>18609375>if your body is damaged just keep damaging it lmao it's already damaged anyway
>>18609391is it actually damaged tho?
>>18609397Of course. Environmental damage from plastic pfthalates, from goybean oils, from glyphosate, etc.
imagine being such a contrarian you start shilling for polyester lmao
>>18609286No plastic clothing offers any reasonable moisture-wicking. Merino wool has the advantage of actual moisture-wicking while also keeping you warm.
>>18609352>we have one problem so since that is it then justifies another problem ignoring the fact that both are problems and can be fixedThere is also the matter of prevalence. In my childhood eons ago most household objects were made of natural fiber, glass, wood or metal. Now 9/10 items I use daily contain plastic so they can be produced cheaper.
>>18609451were just ignoring underarmor?
>>18609424Afraid of a little fossil fuel, libtard?
>>18609456Eww
>>18606982Who cares
the best pants I've ever worn are a nylon-lycra mix.
>>18607314So it turns out that it wasn't tap water poisoning us. How the turn tables
>>18609272Silk dries very quickly.
>>18609547This nigga walks around in pantyhose
