What can I realistically do when it comes to clothing material composition? (thelemmy.club)

I care about my health and sustainability. General advice is to check clothing labels, and I won't buy underwear or whatever that has a large percentage of polyester. But they can just make it up and there isn't recourse. Can't sue em and I don't have access to a lab that can analyze the composition. So how would one know?

Yeah it's not gonna do anything if you pressure individuals to make difficult choices and spent a lot of time shopping and we shouldn't expect a poor working mother to buy from ethical companies, excuse the oxymoron, but I do have time and a tiny bit of money and I just want to know where to focus my efforts. If you want to build a powerful movement I'm all ears, but if you're just saying that like a catchphrase that's just noise
