Women's High-Rise Straight Stretch Linen-Viscose Utility Pants vs Men's Performance Series Trousers: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Formaldehyde resins (wrinkle resistance, shape retention), Azo dyes and heavy metal pigments and Antimony in polyester (if present in trim/elastic) on the Banana Republic and not on the Brooks Brothers.
• We flag PFAS in DWR and stain-resistance finishes, Formaldehyde resins in synthetic finishes and Microfiber shedding and degradation on the Brooks Brothers and not on the Banana Republic.
• The Banana Republic is linen-viscose blend, no water-resistant finish where the Brooks Brothers is cotton/synthetic blend with DWR and stain resistance 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 Brooks Brothers grade, at 35% confidence against 82%, because it discloses less.
