>>176799I sent patagonia a note with my return about how much they suck now compared to the old days. I didn't get any kind of response back. Also saw a lot of negative comments other people had left on their website with the same issues I had.
I also told them how much I dislike my retrox jacket. Whatever you do, don't get one of those.
I know they are real proud of the recycled soda bottle thing. But that jacket is made of the cheapest PLASTIC I have ever seen in my life. And the color description was gravel, and it looked grey in the picture. But the jacket looks kind of purple sometimes. And they charge $200.00+ for that shit.
Also no tall size option that I know of. If you are not one of those 135lbs rich kids in their pictures, then that shit is probably not going to fit you. Pretty fucking disappointed if you can not tell.
I only have two items from outdoor research. Some lashing straps. And a small dry bag. And they are of excellent quality. No complaints. I want a couple of their stuff sacks.
