2 of the 17 yoga leggings we graded clear our screen and 15 do not. Non-toxic is not a defined or regulated term, so what we can tell you is what our graders recorded. Beyond PFAS, the hazards found or left unruled-out on yoga leggings in this category are microplastics, artificial dyes, formaldehyde, heavy metals, undisclosed fragrance. The highest graded here is Girlfriend Collective Compressive High-Rise Legging at 85 out of 100.

On our grades, Girlfriend Collective Compressive High-Rise Legging at 85 out of 100, which we band as Excellent. Then Vuori Daily Pocket Legging at 85. These are model-based assessments from published materials, ingredient lists, certifications and disclosures, not laboratory tests, so treat them as the lowest risk we can evidence rather than a safety guarantee.

Girlfriend Collective Compressive High-Rise Legging, at 85 out of 100, which we band as Excellent. It is nylon/spandex blend, no disclosed coating. The runner up is Vuori Daily Pocket Legging at 85.

The three lowest scoring we hold are Alo Yoga Alo Airbrush High Waist Leggings Women's at 65, Athleta Women's Salutation High Rise Leggings at 65, Girlfriend Collective Compressive Pocket Leggings at 65. The problem with the first is that the main material recorded for this product is not one associated with PFAS.

In this category we check for formaldehyde / VOCs, endocrine disruptors. Off-gassing chemicals from some finishes, textiles, and pressed wood. Language like stain resistant, water repellent or easy release usually means fluorinated chemistry even when PFAS is never printed on the box.

We found no PFAS statement from 6 of the brands we scored in this category, including Alo Yoga, Athleta, Girlfriend Collective, Manduka, Outdoor Voices, Vuori. That is what our research turned up, not proof a brand has never said anything, and a missing statement is not evidence of harm. It is the reason those brands cannot score well on disclosure.

No. We score from published ingredient lists, materials, certifications, disclosures and third party lab results where they exist. Where a product has been independently tested we use that result and say so.
