Men's Italian-Stretch Chino Pant vs Ralph Lauren Men's Tailored Fit Performance Pants: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Azo dye contamination and allergic sensitization and Microplastic shedding from elastane on the Banana Republic and not on the Polo Ralph Lauren.
• We flag PFAS in DWR finish, Formaldehyde-releasing resins (wrinkle-resist treatment), Azo dyes and aromatic amine colorants and Degradation of coating and microplastic shedding on the Polo Ralph Lauren and not on the Banana Republic.
• The Banana Republic is cotton-elastane blend, no known durable water repellent finish where the Polo Ralph Lauren is polyester/cotton blend with DWR finish, 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 Banana Republic is the one to buy.
• We are less certain about the Polo Ralph Lauren grade, at 45% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.
