Lefties · Week of 5 Oct 2026
Apparel is 2,694 (49%) of the 5,552 products on Lefties’ storefront. The report covers apparel only.
Every garment Lefties sells must list its fibres, and those fibres largely decide whether it can be recycled. Single-material garments can be, though few are. Blends mostly cannot: machines cannot pull them apart, and chemical separation has yet to scale. Synthetics come from oil and gas, but most of a garment’s emissions come later, from the energy its mills burn. Of Lefties’ products, 54% disclose a blend and 57% contain a synthetic fibre.
We read every apparel product on Lefties’ storefront each week. The charts below are built from that data. The report gives you all of it, product by product.
