PATAGONIA
Patagonia began in California in 1973. Its founder, Yvon Chouinard, was a climber making pitons in a shed until he realised they were damaging the rock he loved, and moved into clothing instead. That instinct — build the thing properly, then reckon with what it costs the planet — still runs through everything. Patagonia pledges 1% of sales to environmental preservation and restoration, and repairs what it sells rather than replacing it.
Yards Store is an authorised Patagonia stockist. We hold the range at 13 Old Bank Street in Manchester and 86 Pinstone Street in Sheffield, as well as online, and stock differs between the two shops.

What is Patagonia's 1% for the Planet pledge?
Patagonia commits 1% of its sales to environmental preservation and restoration, paid whether or not the company makes a profit. The money goes to grassroots environmental groups rather than to a central fund.
