Leland on Patagonia
One of the most admired and emulated firms in the outdoor marketplace,
Patagonia is also one of the stalwarts in the fly fishing industry. Yvon
Chouinard, the head of Patagonia, is well known as an alpinist and a
surfer, but is also an avid fly fisherman. Atlantics, cutthroats,
permit: he knows what he likes for fish as well as for gear, and he
maintains a hand in the processes of product design to this day.
Patagonia is a founding partner of '1% for the Planet', a league of
environmentally progressive businesses, and Patagonia demonstrates its
engagement with environmental stewardship in other ways as well. To
minimize the inevitable ecological costs of manufacturing, Patagonia
uses recycled content fabrics where possible and makes products that
will perform at a high level for many seasons of fly fishing without the
need for a replacement.

Patagonia on Patagonia
The approach Patagonia takes towards product design demonstrates a bias
for simplicity and utility. For us at Patagonia, a love of wild and
beautiful places demands participation in the fight to save them and to
help reverse the steep decline in the overall environmental health of
our planet. At Patagonia, we donate our time, services and at least 1%
of our sales to hundreds of grassroots environmental groups all over the
world who work to help reverse the tide. We know that Patagonia's
business activity – from lighting stores to dyeing shirts – creates
pollution as a by-product. So the Patagaonia Team works steadily to
reduce those harms. Staying true to Patagonia's core values during
thirty-plus years in business has helped us create a company we're proud
to run and work for.
