Featured Initiatives

Columbia — ECO Jacket

The OutDry™ Extreme ECO Collection is Columbia’s first waterproof-breathable rainwear made with no intentionally added PFCs.

prAna — Clothing for Positive Change

prAna is propelling the sustainable clothing movement forward. When you choose to invest in a piece of prAna clothing, you are casting a vote for social and environmental responsibility, for transparency, and for a fundamental change in the way clothing is made.

Mountain Hardwear — Lamina ECO Sleeping Bag

Mountain Hardwear has set out to prove that sustainability is about opportunity, not sacrifice. But there’s more to this sleeping bag than a little green here and there. In fact, there’s no color at all. The Lamina Eco AF™ is undyed to reduce our water footprint. And on top of that, it’s made with a recycled shell, lining, insulation, and trims. ‘Eco’ alone wouldn’t quite do it justice.
