Polyester

“How many polyesters died to make that shirt?” we used to taunt people who wore synthetic clothes. But who could blame people back then? I remember it was my constant lament trying to find clothing made with natural fibres. Even t-shirts in those days were 50% polyester. That was the early seventies – polyester and brown. My other never ending search was trying to find cool black clothing. If I ever came across a black garment I snapped it up immediately. Now, ironically, I am trying to get away from black. But it is such an easy colour to wear.
