Cat & Jack Boys' Straight Fit Uniform Pants

D · Elevated

Lower PFAS concern, plain uniform pants with no water/stain treatment reported, but Target/Cat & Jack makes no PFAS disclosure.

Cat & Jack uniform pants are basic cotton-polyester blend trousers with no advertised water-repellent, stain-resistant, or other chemical treatments that typically introduce PFAS. Target's product pages do not mention PFAS or water-repellent coating finishes.

Helps the grade

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.
