A lot of athletic wear is using recycled poly, and many companies tout using recovered ocean plastic and such. The toxins don’t disappear when the plastics get converted into textiles… I’ve always wondered about this, glad someone is gathering data! Another good argument for sticking to natural fibers when possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bpa-in-sports-bras#post-2286267 Sat, 15 Oct 2022 14:12:14 +0000 cat2 2286267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can’t get their site to load, but it looks like they also tested socks and found problems. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bpa-in-sports-bras#post-2286265 Sat, 15 Oct 2022 14:06:00 +0000 Anonymous 2286265@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep I wear Athleta tops as normal casual wear all summer too :/ </p> <p>I can't stand the feeling of being braless- it totally creeps me out! Always has as long as I can remember, even when I lived alone. I do have a couple of Bali (I think) bralettes I also sleep in, maybe they're better? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bpa-in-sports-bras#post-2286261 Sat, 15 Oct 2022 13:49:28 +0000 Janet 2286261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And in reading the article it looks like levels are higher than acceptable in all kinds of sports wear — and I wear Athleta tops. Yikes. </p> <p>Sleeping in a bra — even an unstructured bra — sounds so uncomfortable to me! Why do you sleep in one, if you don’t mind me asking? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/bpa-in-sports-bras#post-2286259 Sat, 15 Oct 2022 13:47:11 +0000 Indigoprint 2286259@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow That is sobering.
