Massive carbon footprint Super massive carbon footprint. We purchased several items that arrived today from Patagonia. We went with this company because it markets itself on the pride of being environmentally aware by claiming that it makes most of its products from recycled materials. Out of the three items that arrived, two were from Srilanka and the other was from Vietnam. We live in the UK! This company is absolutely no different from any other sweat shop cheap labor outlet. Which, considering the jacket alone cost around £300 is an absolute joke. Source locally or don’t bother.

Just another hippy clothing brand Once this company became popular and trendy among the hippy community, I have the feeling that they shifted their focus from providing the best quality garments for hiking and outdoor activities to making some fancy and trendy pieces of everything that they would sell for an unreasonably high price. Let's be honest, no hiker in the world would spend a fortune to buy a pair of pants that no one would see him wearing in the mountains while having in mind that with one slip he may tear them apart. That's what I am saying, this company’s target customers from hikers switched to hippies. The quality is still good, let's be objective till the end.

They say they ship the order within 2… They say they ship the order within 2 business days. When I order a Down Sweater from them, there was no response at all. Even after 3 business days, I am not able to check the status of my order. I filed dispute and sent numerous emails via PayPal and still there was no respond.

I'm generally a real fan of Patagonia… I'm generally a real fan of Patagonia clothing and gear. I didn't hesitate to order an item from their website. It came quickly but sadly didn't fit properly. I promptly paid for shipping and returned the item. It's been several weeks and I still have not received a refund. They have the item in their possession for a reasonable amount of time to process a refund but still haven't done it. I would shop elsewhere with better online customer service! I'm very disappointed.

Patagonia refused to give a full refund for faulty gloves I purchased gloves from Patagonia in October 2023. Given the mild winter I have only worn them 4 or 5 times. A couple of weeks ago I noticed that the stitching near a button hole tag on one of the gloves has come loose. Patagonia have refused to give me a full refund and are only prepared to offer a 60% refund so I can get them repaired myself. I will never buy from Patagonia again.
