Allbirds Women's Merino Blend Sweatpants
Lower concern, untreated merino blend has minimal PFAS risk, but verify no hidden water-resistant finish.
Allbirds' merino blend sweatpants are made from natural fibers without publicly disclosed water-repellent or stain-resistant treatments, which are the main PFAS vectors in apparel. The brand does not claim PFAS-free status or hold third-party certifications.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 78% confidence. It is not a lab result.
No independent PFAS lab test is on record for this exact product. A lab test could move the score in either direction.
The brand has not made a specific, verifiable PFAS-free statement, so part of this score reflects that missing disclosure rather than a confirmed material.
Formulations and coatings change between production runs. Always check the current label before buying.
