Is there such a thing as 'good quality acrylic'?

I buy quite a few James Lakeland italian-made clothes and have been surprised by how much acrylic they have in them, but the clothes are beautiful and wash and wear well, so I have to say, yes.

I had a lovely beanie type hat, recently, from M&S, for my birthday...looks like it is chunky wool knitted on big needles..label inside says 100% acrylic, made in China, so maybe the answer is 'yes'

Some acrylics are quite thick quality - I got a M&S long cardi which has a very nice 'handle'. On the other hand, there are other garments you could shoot peas through!
