Both my mother and I had allergic reactions to this sweatshirt (when I was wearing it). I don't know why. I started to get a runny nose and felt that I was having trouble breathing due to constriction in my chest. I don't usually get this in response to anything. My mother does have some form of asthma or environmental illness, and I might have some chemical sensitivities or inherited tendencies myself, but I never expected anything like that to be triggered by a sweatshirt. If you have any form of breathing problems or chemical sensitivities, it would be best to buy a different garment. My disclaimer is, I didn't wash it to find out if washing it made a difference. I just freaked out about what had happened and threw out my new purchase.
