The Patagonia Story
Visit PatagoniaFounded by Yvon Chouinard in 1973, Patagonia evolved from Chouinard Equipment, a company that made reusable climbing pitons. Chouinard, a passionate climber, was motivated by a desire to create highly functional, durable gear while minimizing environmental impact. A key early milestone was the shift to 100% organic cotton in 1996, a then-radical move that underscored their commitment to sustainability. Patagonia has consistently cultivated its reputation for quality and endurance by designing products built to withstand rigorous use and by pioneering initiatives like its "Ironclad Guarantee" and the Worn Wear program, which encourages repair and reuse. These programs demonstrate a long-standing commitment to creating products designed to last and a willingness to stand by them, fostering deep customer trust and loyalty. The company's 2022 decision to transfer ownership to a trust dedicated to fighting climate change further solidified its unique purpose-driven approach.
