Does Athleta sports bras have PFAS?
PFAS Authority is a scoring system, not a laboratory. We do not test products ourselves. Grades are model-based, built from published ingredients, materials, certifications, brand disclosures and third-party lab results where they exist. See the rubric.
We graded 8 Athleta sports bras products, averaging Good (65/100). None of them grade Good or better.
