    Unfortunately, high-plastic fibers are often the ones that last a long time. Or maybe that’s fortunate if you enjoy wearing your clothes until they’re falling off your body, which I do. Cotton, meanwhile can start to degrade through regular use in just a couple years. But it’s really common with modern designs to see high-plastic stretch fibers woven into the fabric, which also degrades really quickly. So it’s kinda the worst of both worlds.

    I’ve been shopping on eBay, just going to Buy It Now and sorting low to high. Shit’s pretty cheap, it’s not contributing to fast fashion, and it’s more accessible for me than thrifting because I’m big in several senses of the word. And a lot of 70’s and 80’s polyester is still in great condition and just sitting in people’s closets.
