Jumpers that feel like sponge

It can’t just be me.

They’re everywhere on the high street.
No idea what the heck it’s attributable to, but they are bothering me a bit.

It’s been a few Years, H&M seemed to start it but the rest have caught up.
They wash badly, they feel weird.
They make the olde worlde acrylic shit seem luxe in comparison.

Is this a thing?

Ugh I know the ones you mean - horrible feeling things. Make my teeth itch

Scuba fabric? If that’s what you mean it is weird. The thinner stuff is quite nice for more structured dresses tho.

If you got caught in the rain i get the feeling they’d expand....

Hadn’t considered that! Grin

They feel like neoprene wetsuits.

M&S actually had summer tops made out of that shite last year.

But what is it?
What is the thing that spongifies them?
