H&M Men's 2-Pack Easy-Iron School Shirts

F · High PFAS

Skip, easy-iron and stain-resistant finishes often use PFAS, and H&M makes no disclosure.

Easy-iron school shirts typically rely on water-repellent coating (water-repellent coating) coatings to maintain crease resistance through washing. H&M and Nordstrom School Uniforms have not disclosed whether these shirts use PFAS-based or PFAS-free finishing treatments.

What we don’t know

This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 42% 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.
