I wish they'd use less plastic. It's hard to find anything from Patagonia that uses environmentally-friendly materials.

Perhaps they can research a way to make performance fabrics that are better for the earth.

Allbirds has been a real pioneer in this space, and they've shown that you can use natural, sustainable materials and produce a product just as good as the others.

I’m sure they do use plastic but don’t they also offer a recycled collection or something? Not familiar with it or the availability
*sustainable is highly disputed, it's unclear any use can be sustainable past a certain scale
