Patagonia helped Samsung modify their washing machines to reduce microplastic pollution: https://www.fastcompany.com/90904159/why-patagonia-helped-sa...

Not a perfect company, I mean almost all of their iconic garments are plastic, but they're doing far more than other technical outerwear companies.

I have one of their “iconic” puffy jackets. I wear it about a third of the year here in Seattle. In the five years I have owned it I have washed it maybe once and possibly never. I don’t even wear it in the rain often because I have a rain shell which is also plastic and also doesn’t get washed.
