Over the years, Patagonia has been honing their use of eco-effective materials, and lately they've been incorporating even more recycled materials and hemp in their clothing. They just introduced this climber's jacket, which has an outer fabric made of a blend of 77% hemp and 23% PCR (post-consumer recycled) polyester. It's tough, but also soft and packable. The interior is made of polyester fleece scraps collected from the cutting-room floor and woven together to create insulation. The jacket is priced at $175. :: Patagonia
