I want to be more respecting of my own sensory needs, and notice certain fabrics are incredible uncomfortable, as opposed to others. I've also noticed loose clothing feels more comfortable for me, then tight clothes. Cotton feels good, polyester does not. I understand this may potentially vary for each person, but wanted to ask about it anyway.

For me, the fabrics i like are:

  • Wool, especially merino
  • Linen
  • Hemp
  • Raw denim

Cotton I'm kinda neutral on, I dislike polyester and most synthetics.
