Water-resistant, eco-happy fabric: Our Water-resistant aprons are made with 100% cotton fabrics that are coated with a non-toxic, water-based polyurethane that is CPSIA-certified BPA and Phthalate-free. Our fabric also meets the human-ecological requirements of the Standard 100 by OKEO TEX. This is a matte coating that is buttery soft and not at all reflective/glossy. You won't believe how soft it feels!

All of our products meet or exceed CPSIA standards.
