Patagonia

Patagonia was founded in 1973 by passionate climbers and surfers, with their business rising to success through their sales in outdoor apparel. Since then, Patagonia has continued to grow and evolve, branching out into luggage, travel backpacks, duffle bags, hip packs and more.

How sustainable is Patagonia?

Their passion for the environment seeps into their product manufacturing process. Patagonia’s main goal is to create good quality products that stand the test of time. The longer a product lasts, the less waste their will be. Another pillar of their company is ensuring most of their products are made from recyclable materials so that they don’t end up in the landfill. Patagonia’s end goal is for all their products to be made from renewable and recycled raw materials. With a lifetime Ironclad guarantee, Patagonia stands behind their product quality. If you discover your Patagonia bag is not quite up to par or is showing faults, Patagonia will repair it for you. If a hole begins to form in your new bag, Patagonia will repair it with a gear patch so you can keep using your bag for many more years to come. To avoid products being thrown out unnecessarily, Patagonia has started a program called “Our Worn Wear”, which allows people to buy pre-loved gear.

The Patagonia Black Hole Duffle range is a standout range, made entirely from recycled materials. All items in this collection are water-resistant, making them durable outdoor bags. Choose from duffle bags, wheeled duffle bags, backpacks and hip packs and feel good about your purchase knowing that it is an environmentally friendly choice. If you need to organise gear for a week or so away, the Black Hole Duffle is the way to go, available in a range of sizes ranging from 40L – 100L. With a spacious main compartment, you can easily pack and unpack your gear. If you have to walk a fair way with your pack, simply convert it into a backpack to distribute the load evenly. The shoulder straps are padded too, making it extra comfortable. If you are off on an outdoor adventure, attach extra gear to the outside using the daisy chain attachments. When not in use, this duffle can be stuffed inside itself for compact storage.  If you only have a short expedition on the cards, the Black Hole Mini Hip Pack will do the trick. This bag is perfect for hands-free movement, allowing you to keep it down to the essentials and the essentials only. For an everyday backpack that lasts the distance, try the Black Hole Backpack. With mesh ventilation on the back, you can carry it comfortably to and from your destination. This backpack also doubles as a laptop bag, with a padded 15” laptop pocket. If you wish to take it on an outdoor escapade, utilise the daisy chain attachments for attaching gear and bring a hydration system with you.
