I want to be more respecting of my own sensory needs, and notice certain fabrics are incredible uncomfortable, as opposed to others. I've also noticed loose clothing feels more comfortable for me, then tight clothes. Cotton feels good, polyester does not. I understand this may potentially vary for each person, but wanted to ask about it anyway.

From looking around, it looks like a lot of current plant stuff still tends to be mixed with polyurethane or coated with plastic

Ah, that sucks..

But I agree, it's encouraging to see the field grow and the options expand as people invent new materials (especially those made from waste from other industries!), even if they're not quite there yet..

(Would plant-leather be "planter?" "Planther?" /thonk.)

That's going to bother me for days now lol

Isn't normal leather also plant based? Because cows eat plants (/j)

I'll see myself out
