Also the elastic wasteband in most clothes is made of spandex which is akin to polyester... you dont really want that directly on your skin and they are also frequently tight on your skin as well...
Yeah and it's usually inside of the pants. not on the outside. I forgot to mention the following:
you can check the fabric of something by taking a tiny part and burn it. Plastic burns like well plastic, cotton, etc barely burns at all. I have never had pants with an elastic lining have the elastic on the outside, and the waist has never touched my skin.
Boxers are the only underwear you should wear btw.

I work on a farm so barefoot “shoes” are out of the question
Why? I'm not saying I'm not sympathetic, but at least explain it. Do you require a reinforced shoe to avoid injuries? I can't really think of any other possible reason other than you misunderstanding terms.

Aren't springy soles better when walking on hard pavement?
Nope. The springiness also has nothing to do with it. Zero drop refers to not only the thickness of the sole, but the heel raise as well.

You must be a man.
Cotton bras are impossible to find and if you find them they are a truly awful fit. Unfortunately. -
@happyhanneke Aerie has a wireless cotton bra! Ok 91% cotton - not bad. It fits just like a regular bra.

@CO3 It’s in my best interest to wear steel toe boots because I’m constantly dealing with farm equipment and livestock. I’m definitely open to buy barefoot shoes when I’m not working though. Wearing boots for 8-10 hours a day starts to take its toll.
-
@happyhanneke Honestly the best thing would be to not wear a bra... but cottonique makes 100% cotton ones as an option but yes fit is an issue but its still worth it

@noseleather
Jeez that must be the ugliest underwear that I have ever seen.
Good thing I'm old and married for a long time. Otherwise I probably would be out the door.
I'm going to try this out, it might be comfortable at least. -
@CO3 Linen is my favorite fabric. I love how it wrinkles and makes you look like a Miami Vice extra. Kino

oh yeah ofcourse. you don't want a cow leaning on your toe and pulverizing it lol.
I would look for wide toe box work boots with a minimal drop and relatively flexible soles. I found the terra venom online that fits at least the first two criteria.
I see the brand 'keen' also mentioned. to some extent the heel itself kind of protects your foot, so none of these are truly barefoot. But having used barefoot sandals before these current boots, i can confidently say the super wide toe box isl likely more important than the sole thickness ( which is still important)

@happyhanneke What do you mean? I specifically mention I am a man in this thread lol. I wear a polyester uniform on a daily basis now and have no way around it. So it's not like I'm not understanding of the fact that it's hard. That's why i asked specifically for female input here

lol these seem interesting. Don't know how they'd hold up in mud and they're a bit like insane to just wear around the city,

I can no longer wear or touch anything polyester. My skin starts to itch as it has become very sensitive to toxic material.
Kamakura shirts are my favorite 100% cotton and one of the last trad/ivy brands that still deliver quality. UNLIKE BROOKS BROTHERS!

@Kilgore Almost all secondhand stores have lots and lots of cotton options. I bought a silk shirt and a wool long coat for 3 euros the other day. One of the only perks of living in Northern Europe is you have great secondhand stores with beautiful natural clothing

no clothes like an african lion hunter, dick swinging like a madman, the natural organic way

I do not have stores like that in my area and especially not for the clothes I like to wear but its great that you can get them.

In an interview Ray was talking about a man who had a potato nose, speech issues and a terrible memory. Ray told him to get a Vitamin B2 shot at the doctor and the guy became normal but had to get it every week.
Maybe you should get that (or atleast supplement as your conditions are not that severe) because you seem to forget every advice people give to you. Act like a lunatic all the time. Don't structure posts reasonably so we cant understand what the hell you are trying to say.
In the "Blood Vessels" section he talks about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqhlIOt5sUw
