Why does it seem like some of my sweaters have a soft and loose "lint layer" on the inside? (lemm.ee)

It's always particularly nice and soft the first time you put it on, but the one I got most recently is so bad it leaves a thin but thorough coat of black fur on my arms when I take it off. What's the production methods used when making sweaters like this?

Nobody seems to "just make high quality clothes" anymore. It's always partly "we do clothing properly" but also "this is a modern art project, and also sometimes we don't do clothing properly".

The modern art vibes have always, frankly, disgusted me.

I'd much rather buy from a factory with a known location and a known manufacturing/tailoring process, with a sales tactic based purely on describing methodology and materials.
