A 16 ounce PV kilt. I've even seen Isle of Skye kilts sold that were like this.
The source? That's the bugbear.
Google for teflon health issues or teflon health risks, or like words, and you will get millions, and I do mean millions, of hits about all kinds of issues.
Edit. Dupont has already paid out somewhere around 50 million dollars in various lawsuits concerning teflon and PFOAs. This has been from housewares, like pots and pans, chemicals, like Scotchguard sprays, and from clothing that uses teflon infused fibres, like certain pants and stain resistant features. Hundreds of millions of dollars are still pending in many lawsuits still in courts. The EPA has waged a full scale war on Teflon and PFOAs, and internal documents were leaked by a whistleblower showing that Dupont knew about the human health risks since at least 1981. (And probably earlier)
