Where these two actually differ
- We flag Azo dyes and colorants, Antimony in polyester, Heavy metals in dyes and pigments and Residual solvents or sizing agents on the Dickies and not on the Izod.
- We flag Formaldehyde resins in synthetic finishes, Azo dyes and colorant metals, Antimony in polyester fiber and Elastic degradation and contact dermatitis on the Izod and not on the Dickies.
- The Dickies is cotton/polyester blend, no special coatings where the Izod is polyester/cotton blend school uniform jumper, 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, 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 →
