Honestly, are you any sort of outdoorswoman if you haven’t got a Patagonia fleece to sling on for early-morning dog walks and evenings on the beach? With its relaxed fit and slouchy styling, this Synchilla Marsupial has that ‘why yes, I am taking a bit of time out to drive across Europe in the van’ vibe absolutely down. The half-zip design means you can regulate temperature easily, and the zipped kangaroo pocket keeps your hands warm and valuables secure. Not too warm and not too cold, the midweight fleece is 100% recycled polyester with an anti-pilling finish – so it'll stay looking decent even after plenty of wear. The elastic binding at cuffs and hem stops draughts sneaking in, and the contrast nylon collar facing adds an extra layer of protection to your neck. Made in a Fair Trade Certified factory in El Salvador.

Patagonia is the brand that other gear companies want to be when they grow up. In 2022, the company's founder, Yvon Chouinard, famously gave the company to the planet. It’s now jointly controlled by a charitable trust and a not-for-profit dedicated to fighting the climate crisis, and all post-operating profits go to environmental causes.
But in some ways that’s the tip of the (melting) iceberg. For nearly half a century, Patagonia has been an experiment in responsible business. From the farms that grow their cotton to the factories that make their goods and everything in-between, they’ve tried incredibly hard to set the gold standard in terms of ethics, transparency and social responsibility. Not only that, but their gear is made to last – to take hard use and repairs, and to maintain its performance through thick and thin.
All of which is even more extraordinary when you consider that Yvon Chouinard started out blacksmithing climbing gear for his mates in his parents' backyard, using a forge and anvil that he bought from a junkyard.
At WildBounds we don’t usually tend to go for the big-name brands, but this was one we simply couldn’t resist. Quite apart from their amazing ethical and environmental credentials, they just make great gear. We’ve used it and loved it for years, and you will too.
