Pretty interesting article about apparel and environmental impact. Big ups to Patagonia for supporting this kind of research

This article cites a lot of the same data in the study previously posted in this thread ... but it specifically calls out

Looks good, comfortable, not great in oysters.

Near and dear to some on this site, I'm afraid that the end of
