Question from Pure Cotton

Both Hanes’ & Land’s End’s are sewn with very scratchy synthetic thread (polyester or nylon) and I am severely allergic to synthetic fabrics/threads. The seams on the sleeves, neck & shoulders for these were so scratchy I had to take them off immediately & still ended up with redness. These were my latest disappointing purchases. I’ll probably be able to tolerate cotton-covered synthetic thread (at least until the cotton wears down). I’m aware there is no labeling for the thread so please only suggest a retailer and long sleeve T shirt type if you do know for a fact, meaning if you currently own some. No “guessing” suggestions please, I’ve done this already as you can see. Also, please only suggest ONLINE retailers as I’m unable to go anywhere. Thank you everyone.
