Even the simple act of putting on a synthetic shirt or sweatshirt has you at the epicenter of a large "puff" of microplastic dust.

I am conflicted every time my wife brings home Patagonia she received for free at work

Going to be some sad irony if Patagonia is found out to be responsible for more plastic pollution than they ever thought imaginable.

I been wearing their plastic fleeces for years, I guess I’m fucked.

I am very concerned by this really. After putting on that hoodie, take a look at your fingertips, and then your eyelashes. Microplastic fibers are everywhere and they are electrostatically attracted to you. At times it will feel like they are chasing you.
