PFAS score
Kjus · Snow Pants
Kjus Men's Rain Rescue 2.0 Pants
Higher uncertainty due to water-repellent coating treatment with no PFAS disclosure, contact Kjus or choose verified alternatives.
Kjus Rain Rescue 2.0 pants use a water-repellent coating typical of performance rain gear, but the brand does not publicly disclose PFAS-free or third-party verified claims. water-repellent coating finishes on apparel traditionally rely on fluorinated chemistry, though newer non-fluorinated options exist.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 45% 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.
