Here's the link.

While a wide range of styles are on sale, you may have a hard time finding items in your size.

Their products are priced moderately (mostly), and always look to be well made. They sound like a bunch of enviro-phile/hippies, though, so I've been voting with my dollars. Their donations, if I understand correctly, support non-profits that lobby against coal mining (the frame of our local economy.)

Unknown. No, I'm just passing along some information.

Your comment reminds me of an earlier discussion about the relationships between commerce and politics.

My wife told me always check out a sale - you never know when you'll find a good deal on something you need.

I click through Cabela's, REI, Campmor, Backcountry.com and a few others every week reading reviews and looking for sales.

Patagonia makes high quality clothes. Very durable.

As soon as they start making pear-shaped shirts, I'll buy some.

Thanks for the reference. The Reaper spoke true. Regardless of what I think is the correct choice, it wasn't my place to comment.

I apologize, Sigaba.

IMO, your POV on Patagonia is food for thought.

The link was offered to broaden the conversation.

It is, I feel, a valid topic of discussion that (to my knowledge) hasn't been fully explored. However, I chose a poor time and place to comment on it and that was needlessly disrespectful. It was rude of me.

My Dad's view on the topic was that you can't always get a bargain on something you need, but you should always be looking for one.

I've gotten to like this site: http://passwird.com/

It is updated at least every day and sure enough the thing you bought yesterday is on special today.
