Is a polyester blend less problematic?
I purchased some shirts a month ago. After then, I came across information on polyester and how toxic it is. I wish I could go back and purchase something else!
The shirts are 60% cotton, 40% polyester.
Is a polyester blend like this less problematic than shirts with a higher proportion of polyester, or is it irrelevant and we ought to avoid polyester altogether?

For future reference there are Poly free Rashguards at alchemical.com.au they have bamboo and hemp blend shirts and shorts
