Knix Catalyst Front Zip Sports Bra

D · Elevated

Lower concern; typical athletic blend with no known PFAS triggers, but brand offers no transparency.

Knix's Catalyst bra is a standard nylon, spandex sports bra with no disclosed water-repellent or stain-resistant coating, the main PFAS risk factors in apparel. Knix does not publicly address PFAS in this product. No independent testing or PFAS-free certification found in public records.

What we don’t know

This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 72% 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.
