Where these two actually differ
- We flag Undisclosed durable water repellent (DWR) coating, Azo dyes in polyester fabric, Antimony as polyester catalyst residue and Microplastic shedding from coating degradation on the Coleman and not on the Skandika.
- We flag Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from waterproof coating, Coating degradation and structural integrity loss and Antimony residues in polyester fiber on the Skandika and not on the Coleman.
- The Coleman is polyester fabric with water-resistant coating where the Skandika is polyester fabric with waterproof coating, which is most of the difference in these two grades.
- These two are level, close enough that price and fit should decide it rather than our grade.
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 →
