It feels like a cheat code when you rock outdoor clothing outside while not doing outside things. Stretchy climbing or yoga pants, for instance, give you incredible range and comfort, making you feel like you’re wearing loungewear in public. Fleecey jackets look cozy and visually striking, but they’re more likely to keep you warm than a regular cotton crewneck. My secret summertime short? Swimming trunks, because they’re quick-drying on moist days, they’re lined so I don’t need an added layer of underwear and they’re colorful enough that they feel stylish.
What I’m saying is: Even if you’re not an outdoorsy person, you still have good reason to get something from this current Patagonia sale. The legendary retailer is known for its durable, colorful clothing that’s as utilitarian as it is attractive, and right now, it’s at a rare discount as its website is offering an up to 40% off sale. You can save big on rain jackets, backpacks, waterproof shorts, fleecy layers, hats, hiking pants and much more. In-season things for summer. Cozy finds for the upcoming winter. Everything! Best of all, you can also find discounted pieces for much higher than 40% off if you dig around.
If you’re not sure what to shop for, we’ve selected some ofour favorite Patagonia pieces below. Grab one of these past-season pieces before the sale ends on September 2 and save big now.
