2015 Men's Cloudburst Cycling Rain Jacket 3M315X/BLK vs Women's Dirt Roamer Storm Jacket: which is safer?

Where these two actually differ

• We flag Azo dyes and heavy metal colorants, Microfiber shedding during laundering and DWR coating degradation and reapplication risks on the Cannondale and not on the Patagonia.
• We flag Azo dyes and color fastness, Antimony in polyester fiber, DWR coating degradation and re-treatment chemicals and Unverified DWR chemistry on the Patagonia and not on the Cannondale.
• The Cannondale is Nylon with DWR water-repellent coating, 3M lining where the Patagonia is polyester shell with DWR finish, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
• The gap is 25 points, wide enough that this is not a close call, and the Patagonia is the one to buy.
• We are less certain about the Cannondale grade, at 35% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.
