Lululemon under probe by Texas AG over PFAS in athletic wear

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched a probe into Lululemon over the potential use of harmful chemicals in its clothing.
The activewear company says it stopped using the so-called “forever chemicals" more than two years ago.
The investigation, announced on the attorney general's website Monday, concerns whether Lululemon’s athletic apparel contains PFAS, or perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances.
These so-called “forever chemicals” don’t break down easily, and the attorney general's office said Lululemon buyers wouldn’t expect their presence based on the brand’s marketing.
