The new Patagonia Stand Up Trout Trucker Hat features the classic Patagonia Trout Stick logo in a classic 6-panel design, making it a stylish choice both on and off the water. Additionally, there's a clear statement on the back with the logo: "we stand for the water we stand in!" The headband and printed front are made from 100% organically grown cotton, while the brim is made entirely from recycled fishing nets. The mesh back provides airflow, increasing comfort on hot days. It also includes a snap closure for adjustable sizing, and the pre-curved brim offers ample sun protection while aiding in spotting fish with your polarized sunglasses.
NetPlus: Our beloved oceans, home to many fish species that are prized by anglers, such as GT or Tarpon, are suffocating in plastic waste. Approximately 8.8 million tons of plastic waste are estimated to be thrown into the oceans every year, and fishing nets are one of the most harmful forms of this pollution. Around 650,000 marine animals become entangled in ghost nets annually. This underscores the importance of using NetPlus materials in Patagonia products. NetPlus material is recycled nylon derived from unused fishing nets. In the process of obtaining NetPlus material, collaboration with fishermen is crucial to keep hundreds of tons of retired nets out of the sea each year. The nets are sorted, cleaned, and shredded in Chile, then processed into 100% recycled nylon pellets known as NetPlus. These pellets can be molded into plastic products, components, or fibers, giving them a new sustainable purpose!
