L.L.BEAN Boys Straight Chino Trousers 7-8 Years W24 L22 Grey Nylon
Lower concern, plain nylon chinos with no water-repellent finish reduce PFAS risk, but L.L.Bean provides no transparency.
These chinos are made from nylon without any specified water-repellent coating (water-repellent coating) or stain-resistant finish, which are common PFAS vectors in children's apparel. L.L.Bean does not disclose PFAS policies or testing for this product.

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.
