How is this vest environmentally friendly?

What is the main material type?

Troubleshooting
Vest feels tight or restrictive
Ensure you have selected the correct size. If a more relaxed fit is desired, consider a size up, though this may affect the intended performance fit.
Moisture-wicking performance seems reduced
Ensure the garment is washed with appropriate detergent and without fabric softeners, which can clog the fabric's pores and impede moisture management. Check care label instructions.
Seams causing irritation
While bonded seams are designed to reduce irritation, individual sensitivity varies. Ensure the vest is properly oriented and lies flat against the skin. Consider a break-in period during shorter runs.
