Patagonia

Patagonia's history began in 1957 when Yvon Chouinard founded Chouinard Equipment to produce climbing gear. Over time, the company evolved from a small climbing equipment manufacturer into a globally recognized outdoor apparel brand. In 1973, the company expanded its operations to include clothing production, initially focusing on garments for climbers. Over the years, Patagonia's product range grew to include a wide variety of outdoor clothing and accessories, while remaining committed to sustainability and social responsibility.
