Hence, after I bought my first Patagonia Trucker hat I did immediately a research about the history of Patagonia. So here is what I found out, what makes this company as unique as the softness that Patagonia trucker hat provides.
Patagonia’s founder is Yvon Chouinard, who at only 14 years old had been a member of the Southern California Falconry Club. As the years went by Chouinard had started making pitons and built a small house shop, but after opening the shop there had been a high demand of his tools.
In the 70’ Chouinard had been the largest producer of climbing hardware in the U.S. Back then he enlarged his business by getting into partnership with Tom Frost, an aeronautical engineer.

Chouinard and Frost started their clothing line as a means to support their hardware business in the 60’s. They started by ordering shirts from England, New Zealand and Argentina, rain cagoules from Scotland, gloves from Austria and hats from Boulder.
