Many people reflect today's clothes.
Price
Higher and higher, the ingredients are becoming more and more difficult to understand. It is not easy to buy pure cotton.
Such clothes, especially underwear, are really good for people to wear? In November 10th, the reporter conducted an investigation.
Cotton prices have dropped, while winter clothing prices have gone up.
In March this year, cotton prices exceeded 30 thousand yuan / ton, cotton prices rose so that clothing prices rose.
Now, cotton prices have gone down sharply, and the current purchase price is only about 20 thousand yuan / ton.
However, a reporter's visit found that the fall in cotton prices did not drive the price of clothing down, and the price of winter clothing did not decline this year.
In some clothing wholesale markets of Chaoyang Street, some brand clothing dealers said that the clothing this winter is at most 30% more than that of last year, which is a relatively big year.
Clothing wholesaler Mr. Wang said that this summer, when manufacturers held a winter clothing ordering meeting, he learned that the price of winter clothing would be 20% to 30% more than that of last year. "This is mainly because the upstream garment manufacturers have raised the price, and we will certainly increase the wholesale price accordingly.
"Wholesale prices have risen, and retail prices have risen accordingly.
Reporters visited some shopping malls in Pro Hsien street and found that the price of an ordinary cotton padded clothes was generally above 1000 yuan.
A saleswoman in a ladies' clothing shop said, "this year's clothes are really expensive.
"
The price has gone up, and the cotton content has dropped.
The price of cotton fell, but the amount of cotton contained in the garment did not rise, but it also dropped.
"Cotton prices are high. Textile companies have added polyester to reduce costs. Now many cotton fabrics have shrunk.
"Ms. Yang, who has been engaged in garment processing industry for many years, said that some fabrics last year contained about 65% cotton, but only about 50% this year. However, ordinary consumers do not feel this change.
Ms. Yang said that the reduction of cotton content in cotton fabrics has a great relationship with the price rise of cotton, because pure cotton cloth is more expensive in fabric products. Many textile enterprises reduce their cost by adding polyester fiber and other chemical components.
In winter, northerners have to wear autumn clothes and autumn trousers, but it is hard to find 100% cotton underwear in the market.
A lot of underwear that feels soft and comfortable is also advertised as pure cotton. But looking carefully at labels, you can find that some of them are mixed with some chemical fibers, including modal, bamboo fiber, Lycra and so on.
Some socks that "combed cotton" and "mercerized cotton" were read carefully.
Although these products contain less cotton, they are not cheap at all.
The autumn dress and autumn trousers, which are mainly made of modal fiber, are worth several dozen yuan more than cotton underwear.
Underwear, or pure cotton.
"Pure cotton is comfortable, but it is easy to deform several times after washing. Other fabrics are not easy to deform, but are afraid of poor health.
"Members of the public, Ms. Zhang, said that she had seen news that chemical fiber materials were derivatives of petroleum." is this material wearing bad for the human body?
The reporter consulted the staff of the provincial Fiber Inspection Institute. They said that the ingredients of chemical fiber material were very stable, so long as the relevant regulations of the state were allowed to be safe, and these materials also had their own advantages.
But it is undeniable that chemical fiber materials are not as environmentally friendly as cotton and linen products.
Chemical fiber material in the production process, all need industrial processing, energy consumption itself, and its decomposition is not as easy as cotton and linen natural material, so from the perspective of environmental protection, it may be better to wear cotton and linen products.
Dr. Ma, Department of Dermatology of the second hospital of Shanxi Medical University suggests that underwear is best to wear pure cotton products with primary colors.
Doctor Ma said, the coat is good, underwear should be closely worn, the processing environment of chemical fiber material is more complex, raw materials, coloring agents and other ingredients are all likely to lead to allergies. "In the visit, we often encounter similar situations, so we suggest that when you choose underwear, you should try to choose a product with high cotton content.
