It doesn't matter whether you've ever voted (shhh!) or which party you belong to (if any). Just get out the damn vote and take a bow for doing your part.

Patagonia CEO Ryan Gellert sits down with @surfrider.org CEO Dr. Chad Nelsen to discuss the federal government's plan to expand offshore oil drilling in California, Florida and Alaska. As the new 5-year offshore leasing plan unfolds, they explore the true cost of oil spills on coastal communities.

Bears Ears National Monument was the first U.S. national monument established at the urging of Tribal Nations and the first managed through Tribal-federal collaboration. Long before its designation, Bears Ears was home to Indigenous peoples, and it remains a living homeland today.

Hopi, Zuni, Diné, Ute, and other Indigenous peoples have cared for these lands since time immemorial. Tribal Nations that led the effort to protect Bears Ears continue safeguarding these sacred places for their communities and future generations while supporting respectful recreation.

Stand with Tribal leaders against efforts to shrink Bears Ears, putting culturally significant sites, traditional plants and medicines, and critical landscapes at risk. Support the Bears Ears Inter-Tribal Coalition. Visit pat.ag/BS/Indigenou... to learn more or make a donation.

We had a lot of fun partying with you, ATL. Thanks for helping us get people to the polls. If you want to keep the party going, you can still join us in increasing voter turnout—thanks to our partners at Relentless

Make vote plans for your friends at pat.ag/B/26/11.2Mil..., and if you want to go the extra mile, we've also added new ways to volunteer with our nonprofit partners at Environmental Voter Project and League of Conservation Voters.

This election season, we decided to give away up to $11.2M in Patagonia credits. That number represents one dollar for every environmental voter who skipped the last election. Thanks to you, all credits were claimed within a week, and nearly half a million people now have plans to vote.

Shortly after we announced the 11.2 Million Vote Project, our website crashed and we scrambled for a few days to work out kinks on the back end. To celebrate the $11.2M milestone (and your patience), we thought we'd share a few of our favorite scenes from that hectic weekend.

In Reno, Nevada, our repair techs put a whole lotta love into each garment that lands on their desks. Tenaya James works on a zipper-pull replacement while Emery Beebe sorts and grades gear, cuts laundry tags and scans products for tracking

Whether it's a simple zipper replacement or a more complex fix that requires stitching or new fabric, each repair is unique, which makes the finished product one of a kind. Photos: Tim Davis

Democracy works when we do→In an ideal world, rewards wouldn't be necessary. But at a time when our democracy is under threat, offering $100 Patagonia credits is simply our way of saying thanks.

Making a plan to vote increases the likelihood of following through→ By helping friends make plans to vote and providing accurate information about when and where to cast their ballots, we boost the chances of follow-through.

Rewarding voter outreach allows more people to take part→Time is valuable. By rewarding people for the efforts involved in helping their friends make plans to vote, we reduce barriers to participation and reach more voters from different backgrounds.

Friend-to-friend outreach works better than reaching out to strangers→ In a world flooded with political ads and misinformation, people trust friends and family most. That's why sharing voting information with our peers is one of the most effective ways to encourage voting.

Over 11.2 million registered environmental voters skipped the last election. These aren't just some far-out greens. They're people we know—and they're people we have the power to reach.

Over 11.2 million registered environmental voters skipped the last election. These aren't just some far-out greens. They're people we know—and they're people we have the power to reach.

Introducing the 11.2 Million Vote Project. From now through Election Day, we've got up to $11.2M to give away in $100 Patagonia credits to folks in the US who help three friends make plans to vote.

It doesn't matter whether you've ever voted (shhh!) or which party lines you fall on (if any). Just get out the damn vote, and we'll throw you a small gift for doing your part.
