Where these two actually differ

  • We flag Azo dyes and synthetic colorants, Formaldehyde resins (finishing agents) and Microfiber shedding from synthetic blend on the Fabletics and not on the Koral.
  • We flag Azo dyes and formaldehyde releasers in black synthetic textile, Spandex degradation and chemical leaching under UV and heat, Contact dermatitis from dyes, formaldehyde releasers, or DWR residue and Microplastic shedding during wash and wear on the Koral and not on the Fabletics.
  • The Fabletics is polyester blend fabric, standard construction where the Koral is Nylon/spandex blend, likely DWR coated, 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 Fabletics is the one to buy.
  • We are less certain about the Koral grade, at 45% confidence against 72%, because it discloses less.

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 →
