Patagonia Airshed Visor - Plume Grey

Looking for headwear to protect from the sun whilst you work and play hard? This visor is a perfect combination of quick drying, lightweight and extremely breathable 87% recycled polyester fabric.

The Patagonia Airshed Visor in Plume Grey is a dark grey sun visor with Patagonia Logo on the front. It has an elasticated adjustable band for a comfortable active fit. The spec of this visor is seriously impressive with high-output sports in mind, but you don’t have to be an athlete to get the most from it.

The fabric used is an 87% recycled polyester, which is a plain weave, making it super breathable and really comfortable against the skin. The brim is made from NetPlus®, a material made from recycled fishing nets to help reduce ocean plastic pollution. This is a visor which will support you through some serious activity, whether that is running your first 5k, marathon or long distance row. If it makes you work hard, you’ll want a visor which works hard with you.

We're proud to be stocking patagonia at Babipur, the pioneers of responsible business practices! Patagonia were one of the earliest adopters of organic cotton recognising the damage that pesticides had on the earth and making the switch back in 1994. A core value is to make the very best quality product because better products last longer and the longer products last the less that have to be made. Materials and manufacturing are carefully considered to ensure minimal impact from creation through to disposal.

Patagonia's continued efforts to reduce and even reverse the impacts of commercial activities is awe-inspiring. Investment in environmental causes and activism, sourcing of reused, recycled and low impact materials, fair trade certifications and initiatives to help other companies achieve higher sustainability levels, Patagonia lead the way. Not satisfied with pushing for change within their own industry Patagonia have begun a food division looking to change farming practices for the better too. Now a global brand using their increased influence for the greater good and still independently owned.
