We’ve just updated the Footprint Chronicles, our interactive mini-site we use to share information about how andwhere our products are manufactured, what the environmental costs areand how we think the process can be improved.

There are a number of new features in today's Footprint update but the highlight is the release of the second in a three-part video series dedicated to investigating the issues of social and environmental responsibility and product quality. Our first documentary explored social responsibility and offshore manufacturing. Our new installment, What Comes Next?, explores environmental responsibility in the Patagonia supply chain.

Our latest installment also includes three newly chronicled items – arecycled fleece jacket, synthetic high-loft insulation, and awaterproof/breathable jacket.Together, these new additions to the Chronicles take us deeper into ourFootprint investigations by illustrating how trying to do the rightthing creates its own set of environmental challenges.

Make the jump for a full list of features in our new Footprint Chronicles.
