Sweaty Betty Power UltraSculpt High Waist Piping Leggings
Activewear with likely water-repellent coating treatment but no PFAS disclosure; higher risk warrants caution.
Sweaty Betty does not publicly disclose PFAS in their product materials or supply chain. High-performance athletic leggings typically receive water-repellent coating (water-repellent coating) finishes, which have historically relied on PFAS.

What we don’t know
This grade is a model-based estimate from public materials, coatings, and brand disclosure at 48% 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.
