I used to love Patagonia clothes, but now they've become all woke and political!
...which is fine with me. Still love their stuff: incredible quality and comfort. Recently, my wife bought some pants; her first thing ever from Patagonia. Now she REALLY wants to buy more of their stuff.
Great quality. I've got stuff over 10 years old, and still in great condition. The only visible issue is the small reflective Patagonia logo on some items has faded or deteriorated.
Warms the cockles of my heart! This is so overwhelmingly generous, decent, humane, caring and loving that is stuns me silly. I wish there were more like him. Seems to be a really cool guy who raised some good people.
Since I mentioned this yesterday, here's my favorite picture of Yvon. Full story (by my dad): Yvon is a tiny little guy, only about 5 feet nothing. He wanted to be a professonal climber SO BAD but he scared people because he would leap "like a goat" from one perch to the next. My dad is 6'2" and Yvon would just launch himself vertically to follow the route my dad was following. The guy who ran the climbing guide business thought Yvon was too reckless, so he couldn't live (in the tent colony) with the other guides. So he and Ken Weeks and Reckless the airedale lived in the NPS incinerator instead. https://uploads.disquscdn.c...
And I start wearing nothing but Patagonia now

Eileen Fisher as well. Similar ethos and good people there... I wonder if she will do something similar.
The Top Gear lads had a rough go down there.
I have visited Patagonia AZ but not that Patagonia.
I'm still wearing their base layers I bought in the '90s.
It certainly has nothing to do with the guy whose name is on the front door.
Preach, I was wearing a fillet earlier that must be thirty years old.
Perfectly lovely, in each and every way💖.
Terroristic shit-gibbon says what?

nice to see reappearance of an OG “old money” meme … noblesse oblige … on a planetary scale !

“Lazy-Ass Ranch,” lol!
Like the ones who do it for the tax write offs, control and accolades.
