Scout's take

Petroleum-derived synthetic plastic fiber forming the body of the legging. Sheds microplastic fibers with every wash — a single wash of a synthetic garment can release hundreds of thousands of microfibers into wastewater. Worn against the lower body during sweaty exercise, where elevated skin temperature and moisture amplify contact with any residual chemical finishes, dyes, and treatments.
