Our take
Sustainable everyday fashion is becoming increasingly important as we seek to make mindful choices in our wardrobes. Recently, I discovered that the pilling I've noticed on my favorite REI apparel, particularly from brands like Prana, often stems from synthetic fabrics. This revelation has inspired me to explore more sustainable and stylish options for my daily wear. I would love to hear any recommendations for brands or pieces that embody both sustainability and elegance.
i was mostly shopping apparels from REI, especially brands like Prana but recently learned that the pilling i have noticed is often due to synthetic fabrics. that got me thinking about switching to something more sustainable and stylish for everyday wear. any one has any recommendations?

- Are there eco-friendly options for men’s sustainable outerwear sets?A couple of days ago, I began to searching sustainable outerwear sets of men, and became curious whether there are eco-friendly alternatives in this category. Initially, I believed that sustainable would mean that I could not enjoy style or performance, but nowadays there are numerous modern options. As far as I could learn, eco-friendly outerwear collections are commonly produced out of organic cotton, recycled polyester, hemp, and Tencel (lyocell). They are employed due to their reduced environmental impact, they are durable, and comfortable. Polyester can be recycled, and organic cotton is cultivated without the use of toxic substances, thus it is more sustainable to people and the environment. Hemp is also becoming popular due to its strength, breathability and less resources needed to manufacture it. A great number of outdoor and fashion brands are moving towards these materials, and even on Alibaba, suppliers are providing sustainable sets of jackets and pants to meet various needs and to stay affordable. Outerwear that is eco-friendly is becoming more feasible and is more accessible, as I have learned. Very much experimenting, but sustainability and performance can certainly be a match. submitted by /u/Ilovepancakes6978 [link] [comments]
- Why does “sustainable clothing” so often feel… disappointing?I’ve been trying to switch to more sustainable fabrics lately, and the experience has been surprisingly inconsistent. A lot of brands position themselves as “eco-friendly” or “ethical,” but when I actually try the products: Some feel oddly synthetic, even when they’re plant-based Some wrinkle too easily or lose structure after a few wears Some are priced at a premium without a clear difference in feel or performance It made me question something that “sustainable” seems to focus more on how something is made, not how it actually feels or holds up in real use. So I’m trying to understand this better: Which fabrics have actually held up well for you over time? Are there materials you actively trust or avoid? Is there any reliable way to judge quality before buying? Curious to hear real experiences, good or bad. submitted by /u/AnuprernaTextiles [link] [comments]
- How to shop fashion sustainably?Hi everyone. I want to ask for advice on how to shop sustainably, or more ethical and eco-friendly. What's your shopping process? My experience in the Philippines is shop in thrift shops or look for overruns, and repair clothes I already have. Unfortunately I haven't seen any sustainable brands and have any thrift finds where they make fashion I prefer, which is usually gen z fashion that you find on pinterest. Mainly but nit limited to streetwear, academia, and y2k I think they're called. A brand I found that fits these is Carmico. Another problem I have is I was thinking of buying something from the thrift store and just customize it to my liking to a tailor. But when I tried customization before, I wasn't really satisfied with the results. And as of now I'm not really interested in making my own clothes. Do you have any tips? Thanks! Edit: Another brand with designs I like is Koi Footwear, though I'm unsure on their sustainability. submitted by /u/KaelPizza [link] [comments]
