I get inflammation and pain through contact with modern rubberized plastics such as silicone objects, walking shoes, polyester. Any sources of shoes, especially, that are not made with such material? Clothing that is all cotton, hemp, and/or linen?
Bad experience: I was shoe-hunting online and just found super expensive shoes that came up only because they are more sustainable because of recyclables or being partially natural.
I bought several "100% cotton" items on Ebay and at a local store. Most items turned out to be partially to 100% polyester. What a waste of time!
Tip: If you hold fabric near a flame (carefully), you'll see it is much harder to get cotton to begin carbonizing (darkening), while polyester will shrink into hard material or even catch fire very quickly. When testing, I pass the flame close and pull back repeatedly until I begin to see the effect.
Any leads would be really helpful.
