For some reason I find vests, and specifically down vests very comfortable. I know that some of you have problems with polyester though, so I'd love to hear about your comfy clothes! (I kinda wanna test out some new stuff)

Which are the places you buy your Tshirts etc. from? I found buying Merch/Band-Shirts (men's) a good source for heavy weight 100% cotton T's and Longsleeves. Hoodies too sometimes if you're lucky, but it can be extremely difficult to find the same quality in Hoodies. I always start sweating like crazy in synthetic kind, feeling so uncomfortable I can't think straight. Same for jogging pants and gym wear.

Honestly I get most of my stuff secondhand, the shirt I’m wearing right now came from a vintage shop. If anyone knows any brands that makes good, heavy tees still I would love to know as well.
