Hi there. I wonder whether is it ok if I just wear t-shirts, blue jeans and sneakers for as long as I like? I am ultrasensitive to many polyester clothes so I always wear cotton and leather for now...

Comfort is important. Fortunately, natural fibers are alll the rage.

On the other hand, rayon can be very comfy.

Maybe even more comfortable than cotton because they can be stretchy without being binding. (I don't care for anything with spandex - other than undergarments and socks.)

This stuff called viscoise and modal are two very comfy versions of rayon. The way I understand it, rayon is sort of natural because it comes from trees. Whereas polyester is a petro product.

Cotton is nice - but I don't like wearing woven cotton shirts because the bind. T-shirt fabric is ok and I can tolerate soft jeans. Love corduroy and velour!

Oh - and quality polar fleece? Not the kind that pills. The performance fleece stuff they sell at Old Navy.

Wear whatever you like. If it's comfortable and you like the way you look, who cares?

Comfort over fashion, even when it comes to shoes.
Hollywood, on other hand, Fashion over comfort and style. Words that turn me away, 'This Fall's fashion' It looks tacky!
At least in my opinion.

I've never cared much about what I wear, not to say I'd go off wearing something ridiculous but I generally wear what I have and don't stress over it.

I can't wear jeans because I have a nickel allergy.

I do that too, except that I am supportive of animal rights and try to wear as little leather as possible. I find it comforting, and I can't think when I'm in polyester and have the sensation of being squeezed by my clothes.

Yes I do... Sweats are so comfy, I'd love to wear them, man!

And if I can be more animal-friendly, what are the natural materials that make shoes?
