Patagonia Women's Active Mesh Bra

D · Elevated

Lower PFAS concern for a basic athletic mesh bra; no water-repellent coating or stain treatments typical of this category.

The Patagonia Active Mesh Bra is a nylon-elastane blend undergarment with no water-repellent or stain-resistant finish disclosed. Patagonia does not publicly claim PFAS-free status for this product, but the simple knit construction and absence of water-repellent coating treatment suggest lower PFAS risk than heavily coated athletic wear.

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.
