What is Spandex Allergy?
Spandex, also known as Lycra, is a synthetic fiber. Spandex can cause allergy, resulting in rashes, redness, itchiness and hives. The chemicals used in the processing of spandex are responsible for allergies. If an individual has spandex allergy, he/she should avoid spandex fabrics and switch to natural fabrics such as cotton.
Spandex is used in sock tops, bathing suits, lingerie straps and other elastic clothing. However, usually no clothing is made from 100 percent spandex.
Symptoms:
Spandex allergy can result in redness, itchiness, hives and rashes. In severe cases, the skin can also break out in blisters.
What causes Spandex Allergy?
Spandex is made by processing chemical agents. These chemical agents are
responsible for irritating the skin and causing allergies. Here are
some of the chemicals present in spandex which can result in an allergy:
MDI: MDI is used in the manufacturing of spandex. It can irritate the skin and result in rashes and redness
TDI: TDI is another chemical which is used in the making of spandex and it can cause allergy
Manufacturers have to ensure that there is no residual and unreacted TDI or MDI. This can prevent an allergic reaction.
How to Prevent Spandex Allergy?
Switch to natural fibers such as cotton. You can also choose 100% cotton products
Avoid synthetic fibers as they are more likely to cause allergy
Be careful with clothing containing elastic as they may contain spandex
If you suspect you have an allergy to spandex, try eliminating spandex
containing products. If your allergy subsides, avoid spandex products.
Treatment:
If you experience spandex allergy, do consult your allergist. You would
be prescribed topical corticosteroids or antihistamines for treating the
reaction.

So you guys don’t make the size socks I like. All of yours are low cut or like up to the fucking thigh. Can you guys just not make regular sized socks like I’m used to?
HI- I have been loving and wearing no itch merino wool for years but recently got a new pair of Smartwool pants and bust out in itchy intense hives around my ankles with every wear. I called the company and they said that unless it is their 100% merino base layer line, they use ELASTANE in their clothing. I also now have reactions to the top cuff of their socks.
One trick I learned was to cut off the cuff and they don’t ravel! The other was to line the ankle area of their pants with organic cotton which i cut from an old pair of leggings I had.
I have never had any allergies before but now swear by all natural companies like Cottonique. thanks for being out there for us!
