Cotton and polyester couldn’t be more different. Cotton is natural, breathable, absorbent, and sustainable. Polyester, on the other hand, is a synthetic fiber that doesn’t breathe well, repels water, and isn’t sustainable.
But keep in mind that you’ll see cotton and polyester blended together to produce fabrics that exhibit properties that can’t be achieved using either fiber alone. Taken separately, each has its advantages and disadvantages. The more you know, the better choices you can make when selecting a fiber to meet your needs.
