EP 168: Buddy Pendergast & Mackenzie Warner - Patagonia’s industry-changing new wetsuit, Developing sustainable materials, Sharing technology for good, Patagonia’s ethos, and The biggest wetsuit overhaul in over a decade

This week Patagonia Wetsuit Team members Buddy Pendergast and
Mackenzie Warner join The Lineup to talk about the new Fall wetsuit
coming out. They discuss how this wetsuit is the biggest overhaul
in over a decade and the culmination of years of research, design,
and development, and how they are trying to change the wetsuit
industry with sustainable materials like natural rubber. They dive
into the Patagonia ethos about producing the best possible wetsuits
and products to avoid product churn and waste and also sharing
their technology with the entire industry. Then Mackenzie and Buddy
describe their work within Patagonia and personal relationships
with the brand before taking part in the Lightning Round. Shop
