Women's Thermal Base Layer Leggings

What's with the smell; it did wash out though

Organic cotton should not smell like chemicals, but this did. As soon as I tore open the plastic bag the products were shipped in, a chemical smell hit me in the face like a Mack truck. Each item was packaged in paper bags designed to hold the individual clothing item, yet one of those paper bags was wrapped in Saran wrap, I'm not sure why. I have noticed that cardboard tends to reek nowadays, at least many of the boxes I get from Amazon; perhaps it is from a paper manufacturing process, so whether it was the paper or the clothes in this shipment that reeked, I cannot be sure, but I suspect the clothes. The plastic shipping bag did not smell on the outside, but of course did on the inside since it contain smelly items. I had the same problem when trying to buy organic cotton sheets as numerous company's GOTS certified sheets reeked of chemicals that did not wash out and when contacted they swore they used no chemicals. I finally settled on Pact and Rawganique who's products, thus far, do no smell. Cottonique products did not used to smell and luckily the chemical smell went away upon washing, but it still begs the question, what has changed?

I am so happy to have found Cottonique apparel. I love everything I’ve purchased to date - bras, long underwear shirts and leggings, and turtleneck shirts. I have ordered several of each item in different colors. My winter wardrobe is now complete and I look forward to coming back in spring to refresh my summer wardrobe.

Cottonique leggings have been life changing for me. They help me regulate my skin sensitivity so that I can exercise and lounge comfortably.
