In my thrift store travels, I see stuff from Brioni and Canali down to crap I wouldn't dare clean my car with.
Every once in a while in that latter category I see a label boasting of a garment's "imported polyester" composition. Usually shirts. Ties and pants, sometimes.
WTF?
Is it supposed to be somehow better than domestic? Was it a 1970s marketing gimmick?
Just wondering about the history of this, er, fabric-like stuff.
