  "whyPlastic": "A sleeping bag is almost always a nylon or polyester shell around down or synthetic fill, and the plastic-free kind starts over with wool, cotton and linen. The catch is in what closes and stitches it. The zipper is nylon or polyester coil unless a metal one is named. Thread is polyester unless it says cotton. Drawcords end in plastic cord locks, edges are bound in synthetic tape, and the stuff sack is silnylon. A wool felt bedroll with no zipper and no stitching removes most of the list.",
