Finding polyester/other synthetic-free clothing shouldn't feel like a research project. We built Wear 100% so you can cut through the noise and discover clothes that actually deserve to be bought.
These are the synthetic fibres that make up roughly 60%-70% of the clothing industry — and 100% of what's banned from Wear 100%.
The world's most common clothing fibre. Made from petroleum. Sheds microplastics with every wash. Even "recycled" polyester still releases plastic particles.
A synthetic plastic polymer, common in activewear, tights and outerwear. Sheds microplastics and takes hundreds of years to break down.
A plastic fibre often used to imitate wool. One of the worst microplastic shedders — releases up to 730,000 fibres per wash.
A rigid plastic used in raincoats, waterproof shells and shiny "vinyl" finishes. Doesn't biodegrade and can release harmful chemicals as it breaks down.
Used in sportswear and base layers for moisture-wicking. A plastic derivative with significant microplastic shedding.
The basis of most "vegan leather" and coated fabrics. A plastic-based material that degrades into microplastic fragments over time.
