Scout's take
Petroleum-derived synthetic plastic fiber forming the main fabric (recycled polyester). Polyester+spandex is the exact fabric class CEH found BPA in across multiple major activewear brands (Oct 2022 / May 2023 testing). Sheds microplastic fibers with every wash. Worn in maximum skin-to-fabric contact during sweaty exercise, which amplifies absorption of any residual chemical finishes.
