    Default Patagonia to stop selling logo’d merchandise to finance companies

    https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article...-policy-change

    Patagonia trying to distance itself from finance bro’s. Wants more “mission driven” organizations to sport its gear. I’m not sure we can rely on the B-corps to carry the sales numbers 20-something WASP’s will provide you.

    Can't they still buy the vests and have logo embroidered on them? Hell, once I buy it I should be able to put a rebel flag on the entire back of it if I so choose.

    This is like when Abercrombie asked fat people not to wear their clothing except an even dumber business move.

    They could have just refused the right to use their name in this song

    Yes. That's why this is a stupid virtue signaling bullshit move.

    Patagonia will be back to filling large orders from finance/tech firms within a year.

    Why is this news? The trustafarians will still buy their clothes. Move along. Nothing to see here.

    Nope. I will keep buying their shit because it is high quality. The stand up shorts are the best shorts ever made period.

    I'm with Fish. There's better quality and better fitting clothing out there for a better price IMO. I don't need to wear anything with a Patagonia logo to know I'm cool.
