Do cycling jackets have to get a lot worse for the environment to get a bit better?

It’s been two years since Gore announced the retirement of the Gore-Tex Shakedry technology. It was ahead of a ban on environmentally detrimental PFAS (polyfluoroalkyl) fabric that rippled out, state by state, from the USA and will soon be adopted by the European Union.
