Well, I gotta say, their commitment to the environment does boost my trust in Patagonia a lot. I mean, as an urban farmer in Brooklyn, I'm all about sustainable living and eco-friendly practices. Seeing a brand like Patagonia put their money where their mouth is, it makes me feel like they're not just in it for the profit, you know? But, I'm not thrilled with how some companies use greenwashing. Patagonia feels genuine to me, but it's a tough world out there.

I'll tell you, when I'm looking to buy gear, I always check if the company is doing anything for the environment. If Patagonia's got a product that meets my needs, I'll go for it because I know they're doing their part. It's not just about the product anymore; it's about supporting a cause. But it's disheartening when I can't find what I need from them and have to look elsewhere.

I'd be more loyal if Patagonia could show me clear, tangible results from their initiatives. Like, if they could prove that their efforts are directly reducing waste or improving conditions in a specific area, that would make a huge difference. It's not just about saying they're doing good; I need to see it. Also, initiatives that involve the community, like local clean-ups or educational programs, would really resonate with me as a community organizer.

I'd love if they could fix zippers, patch up tears, and maybe even replace worn-out parts like buckles or straps. It's so annoying when gear breaks and you have to throw it away because it's not fixable.
