Custom Patagonia apparel for the cold weather
Patagonia is a region in Argentina, but it is also an apparel brand (we’re sure you have seen Patagonia apparel somewhere and loved it) founded in 1973 by accomplished rock climber Yvon Chouinard. His idea for this rock climbing equipment brand came after a trip to Scotland where he used a tough rugby shirt for a climb and he saw how it made his climbing easier and how the shirt easily withstood the climb.
After his trip, he decided to add rugby shirts in with the sale of climbing equipment and it became a trend that became popular really fast therefore becoming one of the most successful sportswear brands today.
Patagonia, as they say on their website, still considers alpinism as their main focus, but they have branched out to clothes for skiing, snowboarding, surfing, fly fishing, mountain biking and trail running too. Nonetheless, “as the climate crisis deepens, we see a potential, even probable end to such moments, and so we’re fighting to save them. We donate our time, services and at least 1% of our sales to help hundreds of grassroots organizations all over the world so that they can remain vigilant, and protect what’s irreplaceable”, they also comment.
This consideration for the climate and our planet makes a difference from other brands and sets Patagonia apart as a company that cares. One of their core values is to defend the place “we all call home”, which they have been doing for over 40 years and plan to continue on doing in the future.

Well, today we want to tell you that it is possible to have amazing apparel like Patagonia customized for whatever intention you need to use it for. Keep reading, we’ll tell you more about it!
Why should you get custom apparel?
Many companies today have moved towards a more casual dress code in the workplace where ties and suits are a thing of the past. Charity events, staff retreats and conferences are also becoming more and more popular and all of these things have one thing in common: customized apparel, such as t-shirts.
However, custom apparel can also be a jacket, a hat or even a backpack, it all depends on where and how you would like the target people to wear or use them.
One of the reasons to have customized apparel is representation. For instance, a custom t shirt will allow your employees to demonstrate that they have a link to the company and it will set them apart from clients and customers and people will be able to identify employees easily. It is also a means of advertisement for outside the office if a team member is wearing something with the brand on it.
An employee may not want to wear their branded t-shirt they use every day at work when they go out with friends, but if they also had a custom Patagonia vest or Patagonia hat, for example, one they can wear anywhere, look good and still get your brand out there, don’t you think they would use it often? Yes, they will, also because Patagonia is a renowned brand and people will want to own a piece of apparel from them (especially on this cold weather).
Branded apparel also gives teams a sense of unity which can promote better communication, relationships and productivity and Crooked Monkey is here to help you achieve all of that and more since we love to create custom apparel and promo items if you are located in Washington DC, Philadelphia, Louisville and Nashville, although we deliver anywhere in the US!
