Cotton vs Polyester

We now offer 100% cotton t-shirts made out of recycled water bottles and made in the USA. 

So why is cotton better than polyester? Polyester has been linked to micro fibers being found in plastic pollution. 35% of all micro plastic pollution is linked from garments. Every time you wash your sheets or clothes the fabrics release micro fibers that are too small to be captured by the machines filter. The microfibers then enter the water ways and the toxic fibers effect animals and people. 

Why is cotton better? Cotton is better because it is more sustainable and a natural fabric compared to polyester being synthetic.
