Cons: The downside lies in cotton’s poor ability to resist wrinkling and shrinking unless fabric pre-shrinking was done. Durability in the long-term is another disadvantage as cotton fibers tend to fray after 5-7 years of use. More importantly, ethical issues with cotton production make other people turn to sustainable alternatives like TENCEL™ and bamboo.
