Hanes Men's Cool DRI Crew Socks with Ventilation (3-Pairs)
Lower concern, basic crew socks with no known water-resistant finish or PFAS-prone coatings.
Hanes Cool DRI socks are primarily cotton/polyester without reported water-repellent coating or stain-resistant chemical treatments. Moisture-wicking function appears to be fiber-based, not chemical coating. No public PFAS disclosures or claims exist; Hanes has not published PFAS policy for this product category.

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.
