<a href="https://hypernaturalstyle.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HyperNatural</a> co-founder Chris Kolbe reveals what's hiding in your synthetic clothes, why it matters, and the simple fix that won't break the bank.Full show notes and resources can be found here: <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/1333" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">jordanharbinger.com/1333</a>What We Discuss with Chris Kolbe:<ul><li>Polyester, nylon, and spandex are all plastic used in modern fashion — and most people don't realize they're wearing petrochemicals against their skin. When asked directly if they wear plastic, people say no, while pointing at their synthetic gym shirt.</li><li>The danger is twofold: plastic itself requires chemicals like phthalates (hormone disruptors) to become soft and pliable, while topical finishes for "quick dry," "wrinkle-free," and "water-resistant" claims form a layered cake of chemicals that comes off first and leaches into the body when activated by heat and sweat.</li><li>Marketing has sold consumers a false premise over the last 30 years: that it takes plastic to achieve performance. Chris Kolbe, a 30-year apparel industry veteran, argues the industry solved performance while quietly creating a whole new set of health problems.</li><li>Real-world proof exists where it's hardest to dispute: airline uniforms. Delta's purple polyester uniforms caused health problems so severe that flight attendants had to quit working, prompting lawsuits — a rare case where constant daily wear made cause and effect visible.</li><li>You don't need to torch your closet or buy $400 underwear — start where exposure is highest. Focus on high-contact items (underwear, socks, leggings, gym shirts, bedding), read labels, ask brands for actual receipts over vibes, and upgrade one item at a time. The closet is just the next frontier after we've cleaned up our food, water, and skincare.</li><li>And much more...</li></ul><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/podcast/id1344999619?mt=2&ls=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here</a> — even one sentence helps! <ul><li>Sign up for <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/course" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Six-Minute Networking</a> — our free networking and relationship development mini course — at <a href="https://jordanharbinger.com/course" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">jordanharbinger.com/course</a>!</li><li>Subscribe to our once-a-week <a href="https://www.jordanharbinger.com/news/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Wee Bit Wiser</a> newsletter today and start filling your Wednesdays with wisdom!</li><li>Do you even Reddit, bro? <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/JordanHarbinger/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join us at r/JordanHarbinger</a>!</li></ul>This Episode Is Brought To You By <a href="https://www.jordanharbinger.com/deals/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Our Fine Sponsors</a>: <ul><li>HyperNatural: <a href="https://hypernaturalstyle.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get plastic-free apparel made with jade and crab shells: hypernaturalstyle.com</a></li><li>Lufthansa Allegris: <a href="https://www.lufthansa.com/us/en/discover-lufthansa/allegris" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Go to Lufthansa.com and search for "Allegris" to learn more</a></li><li>BetterHelp: <a href="https://www.betterhelp.com/jordan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">10% off first month: betterhelp.com/jordan</a></li><li>AT&T: <a href="https://att.com/iphone" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get an iPhone 17 Pro for $0: att.com/iphone or visit an AT&T store for details</a></li><li>ButcherBox: <a href="https://butcherbox.com/jordan/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Free protein for a year + $20 off first box: butcherbox.com/jordan</a></li></ul>See Privacy Policy at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy</a> and California Privacy Notice at <a href="https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info</a>.
