Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating composition, Synthetic fill microplastic shedding and Coating degradation and leachables from synthetic lining on the Allbirds and not on the Roxy.
  • We flag PFAS in DWR coating (fluorine-based water repellent) and DWR coating degradation and re-application chemical exposure on the Roxy and not on the Allbirds.
  • The Allbirds is Wool blend with synthetic fill (likely polyester) where the Roxy is Polyester with DWR (durable water-repellent) coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
  • The gap is 45 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Allbirds is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Roxy grade, at 42% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric: materials, coatings, brand disclosure, lab findings, and recalls, plus a beyond-PFAS hazard analysis. Grades are model-based estimates, not lab tests. How grades work →
