Ultra-light Waterproof Hardshell Jacket
Skip until Mammut discloses water-repellent coating chemistry or commits to PFAS-free.
Mammut's hardshell jackets use waterproof coatings typical of the industry, where legacy water-repellent coating treatments often contain PFAS. Mammut does not publicly disclose its water-repellent coating chemistry or make PFAS-free claims.

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.
