>Recycled polyester

I don't want to wear clothing made from jeet garbage.
Sad i was really interested in patagonia

Go outside

Not OP, but I also don't want PFAS and other garbage chemical infected "clothing."

I wear leather, wool, and cotton. I'm doing just fine.

>>2856186
Brother you gotta get some linen and hemp in there.
>>
>>2856171
majority of plastics are already recycled. Advertising as such is just a marketing strat to hike the price
>>
>>2856221
Why would you pay more for literal garbage that was also already subsidized by your taxes
>>
>>2856226
because "the environment" is an upsale tax that companies know people will pay more for when they see it on tags. That's modern Patagonia's entire gimmick
>>
>>2856227
Only complete dumbasses would fall for this. Animal and plant materials are an actual renewable resource and are degradable.

I actually have linen/cotton blend shorts for spring and summer hinking. Great materials.

I helped build a DIY skatepark on an old forgotten slab in my town. It was really cool and we all pitched in thousands of dollars to create a really awesome skater-built skatepark. Then patagonia bought the land and bulldozed it because muh land conservation. Now there are tweakers camped out where our sick skatepark used to be. Fuck Patagonia forever.

what about backpacks?

>Bamboo
"Bamboo" fibre is viscose made of bamboo.
Also tencel is the superior viscose fibre.

The wife has bamboo sheets. Those stay cold for like, ever. They're also really smooth. Not soft like polyester, but buttery smooth like silk.

agreed patagonia has been trash ever since they started putting their logo on the breast of their clothes. They even have ll bean copying that design language so their clothes are ruined now too. I don't want to be a walking billboard.
>>
>>2856192
i don't understand the fucking logic of this. do ecofags really?
>>
>>2856500
Ya really. Yes it's retarded. Producing plastic is environmentally harmless (and could even be done from biological ethanol). Disposing of it is. I have to wonder whether the effort of transforming recycled polyester into jackets instead of just burning it isn't even more harmful than just producing it new.
