Why should you buy Patagonia

published 27 February 2025

Discounted Patagonia goods, anyone? REI did us all a solid and reduced the price of over 300 items from the popular outdoor brand, from jackets and fleeces to hats and pants – they've got it all. I've been poring over the listings and created a shortlist of five unmissable items every self-respecting outdoor enthusiast must check out.

Of course, REI also stocks a score of other brands, and a lot of their stuff is also on offer – you can find the full list here. There is The North Face, Arc'teryx, Helly Hansen, Columbia, Cotopaxi and other top-tier brands to choose from if you're not keen on Patagonia stuff (although, again, why would you click on this article if you weren't?).

Why should you buy Patagonia

If you’re looking for gear that lasts, performs, and actually does some good for the planet, Patagonia is a solid choice. Their clothes aren’t just built for adventure – they’re made with recycled materials, organic cotton, and Fair Trade Certified production to keep things ethical and sustainable.

Plus, Patagonia doesn’t just sell stuff; they encourage you to repair, reuse, and keep your gear going with their Worn Wear program. Every purchase supports environmental activism and climate initiatives, so you’re not just getting great outdoor gear – you’re backing a company that cares. Quality, sustainability, and impact – what’s not to love?
