Teflon, andGore-Tex (polytetrafluouroethylene) before PFAS became an issue contained oodles of it. So did \"classic\" DWR (durable water repellant) fabrics. It’s in food, in air, it’s probably on the keyboard condom I use to keep the crumbs and fizzy water of out of my computer. PFAS is all around, it’s a sad story, they were scientific advancements with unintended and unknown consequences. They’ve had their day, every one of you reading this has a closet and kitchen and pantry full of PFAS stuff, but just hang in there. We say NO PFAS on the label, but it's more prudent but too late to say NO INTENTIONALLY ADDED PFAS. The fabric-maker says No Pfas, so we did, too.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe ”good” (?) news is, manufacturing PFAS is worse for the environment than wearing clothing with PFAS. If you have to make that distinction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eMost or all pre-2025 MUSA clothing has had PFAS. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eStarting as soon as we learned about PFAS, and effecting all MUSA clothing made for the 2025 season and onward, no more. A big fabric supplier, Milliken, has been, as they put it, “PFAS-free since ’23,” but we learned of them just about 7 months ago, and the new MUSA shorts and pants, and all future ones, are made the USA-made Milliken PFAS-free fabric. It’s still not as green as organic cotton or hemp or linen, but this is a step toward that, and at least a pair of our MUSA bottoms will likely last 10+ years. That’s something.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rivendell Bicycle Works","offers":[{"title":"Ranger Green \/ Small","offer_id":43092995571823,"sku":"cb-25-grn-s","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ranger Green \/ Medium","offer_id":43092995637359,"sku":"cb-25-grn-m","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ranger Green \/ Large","offer_id":43092995702895,"sku":"cb-25-grn-l","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Ranger Green \/ XL","offer_id":43092995768431,"sku":"cb-25-grn-xl","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coyote \/ Small","offer_id":43092995604591,"sku":"cb-25-cyt-s","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coyote \/ Medium","offer_id":43092995670127,"sku":"cb-25-cyt-m","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Coyote \/ Large","offer_id":43092995735663,"sku":"cb-25-cyt-l","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Coyote \/ XL","offer_id":43092995801199,"sku":"cb-25-cyt-xl","price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ Small","offer_id":54231316201583,"sku":null,"price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ Medium","offer_id":54231316234351,"sku":null,"price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ Large","offer_id":54231316267119,"sku":null,"price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Black \/ XL","offer_id":54231316299887,"sku":null,"price":116.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1403\/7343\/files\/BAGGIES2026-19.jpg?v=1788547205","url":"https:\/\/www.rivbike.mom\/products\/musa-cycling-baggies-2025","provider":"Rivendell Bicycle Works","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
