Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Azo dyes and azo metabolites and Heavy metals in synthetic dyes (lead, cadmium, chromium) on the Cotton On and not on the Outdoor Voices.
  • We flag Microplastic fiber shedding (nylon microfibers), Fluorochemical coating degradation and migration and Coating leachables into sweat on the Outdoor Voices and not on the Cotton On.
  • The Cotton On is cotton where the Outdoor Voices is Nylon blend with water-resistant coating (Bubble Wrap texture), 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 Cotton On is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Outdoor Voices grade, at 45% confidence against 78%, because it discloses less.

Both products run through the same public rubric, which covers 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 →
