Making this post so users can share information on cruelty-free clothing that is built to last.
Ideally this will mean both vegan and natural materials but I'm aware synthetics are near unavoidable. Please feel free to share synthetic materials that are made for long-term / indefinite use.
In summer I typically wear only cotton / linen but as the weather gets colder I'm looking for warm or waterproof winter clothes. I asked this question to a vegan community already and I'll put their responses in a comment below.
Additional question - It seems the best way to keep warm in cold weather is to layer natural layers with treated/waxed nylon or cordura on top. Does anyone have experience with this or know of an accessible guide online? Every post I find is linked to a shop or otherwise trying to sell something.
Also any info on the waxes to use (Parrafin, soy oil, synthetic beeswax, candelilla are all options I have come across) is appreciated!
