Well-made, but plastic on skin.
↳ Not recommended for socks — synthetic on skin, all day, all night.
Why this grade?
This product scored 55/100 based on its composition of 50% Nylon, 45% Polyester, 5% Spandex. Blended from 50% Nylon, 45% Polyester, 5% Spandex — the overall score is a weighted average based on each material's proportion.
C (55-69): Average — typical blend, reasonable for everyday wear.
Average quality, high synthetic content
Decent for everyday wear, but the synthetic content means microplastic shedding and it won't biodegrade. Consider natural alternatives for your next purchase.
Every wash of synthetic fabric releases up to 700,000 microplastic fibers into waterways. Use a Guppyfriend bag to catch them.
This fabric will take 200+ years to decompose. That means a shirt you buy today will still exist in the year 2226.
Dryer heat destroys spandex/elastane over time. Your leggings and stretchy clothes will last 2x longer if you skip the dryer.
Biodegradability
Not BiodegradableMaterials will persist in the environment for decades.
Health & environmental impact →Health Impact
Microplastic shedding · skin-contact synthetic load · likely chemical treatments
High health impact — significant synthetic content or likely chemical treatments. For frequent skin-contact wear, consider a natural-fiber alternative.
