A bit of spandex is ok. I definitely like a bit in my jeans. I don’t need any in my tops, but I don’t mind it as long as it doesn’t make the top feel like rubber. 😱 I had that experience once. I don’t mind all cotton, but it can shrink & wrinkle. I prefer cotton with a bit of poly which helps maintain shape & color & lessens the chance of wrinkling & shrinking.

I'm not a fan of spandex in my jeans, and even though none of my jeans have more than 1% spandex in them some have more stretch than others. The more stretchy ones I don't like because I'm continually pulling them up unless I wear a belt with them.
I'll never buy Jeggings from the shopping channels . They don't even look good on the models that don't have bird legs. And I don't care what they say, they'll look like sausage casings on those of us that don't have bird legs. Same for the pants I see sold on QVC & HSN. If they look good on the host, I know they'll be tight on my legs. What they're calling straight-leg pants are more like skinny jeans on me, and not in a good way.
A little spandex to provide a little ease is one thing, but spandex so more people can squeeze their bodies into the clothing is a whole different story and not a good one.

Without a little spandex in denim, the knees would be very uncomfortable. Some brands DO overdo it.

DG2 stretches terribly, wears thin bags out & rips because of the spandex. Isaac says to never buy with more than 2% spandex. Renee's line often has 16% spandex!

@barrel racer, I think 2% is the perfect ratio.
