Since 2012, Houdini’s garments has been 100% PFAS-free, well ahead of many competitors in the industry. However, Houdini’s commitment to sustainability goes beyond eliminating PFAS; they use recycled and biodegradable materials, and have implemented circular business models such as rentals and repairs. Their approach to waterproofing involves using PFAS-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatments and materials like recycled polyester with a polyurethane membrane.
