Researchers have discovered that waste from the global apparel industry is leaking millions of tons of plastic into the environment each year and may be getting worse over time.

I’ll check it out. Sadly it seems that AGC is out of business.
Any other recommendations for brands? I’ve tried Realfleece merino wool and it was warm and comfy but not terribly durable, and breathtakingly expensive.
Do you have to wear fleece? Cotton and wool flannels and shirts, and nylon down or synthetic puffies will shed dramatically fewer microplastics. Could do more of a canvas jacket instead of puffy but I live in Colorado so it’s puffies all the way down. I don’t own any fleece and don’t miss it at all.
Don’t leave out linen! Warmer than cotton but cooler than wool.
