Patagonia- Hale’iwa

*I just love this store, they have some local Haleiwa gear which is cool to pick up and their staff is very friendly
*I don’t get why they stock down jackets in november but someone’s buyin em!
*If you like to shop, a must stop in north shore

This Patagonia is the best! Way better than the one in Honolulu. Everyone greets you as you walk in the door and is extremely helpful. I had the pleasure of Angela helping me find gifts for my family. She was very helpful and ordered in some shirts for me that were out of stock! I am going to make the trip up to the north shore for now on to hit up this store!

Have been to this store many times when visiting Oahu. I usually buy several items when I visit. The women’s selection was pretty slim when I was there a few weeks ago. Maybe they were in between seasons. I asked a few questions about the selection and they seemed annoyed with me. I did buy 2 hats to take home. The older lady working the register wasn’t very friendly. She seemed annoyed when I asked for a paper shopping bag for my hats. I know a lot of tourist go in and out of their store but locals should remember they couldn’t stay in business if tourist don’t shop in their stores. I’m giving them 3 stars because they did have some local logoed items. #appreciateyourcustomers.

Was just checking out the new items when I saw they still had 50% off sale and got a tshirt. Good service and no line at cashier.

Generally speaking, I like outdoor stores. We don’t have the Powder Edge Store anymore, and no REI in Hawaii. Not much choice here.
This is located at Northshore Market Place. Larger space than Ward store, and more items. It was extremely crowded yesterday, probably due to 50% sale until 07÷31÷12.

Great quality outdoors gear and attire here. Very high quality jackets, bags and clothing. I just wish they had more big sizes that I could fit into! They also have some location specific items (Patagonia — Haleiwa/​Hawaii), so they would make great gifts for out of town recipients!
However, now that they have opened a location on Ward, I’m a little less inclined to make the trek out here to shop. I’ll definitely stop by if I’m out that way, though.

THE BEST STORE EVER!!!
Our whole car load was super excited to purchase goodies from Patagonia. In Texas, we don’t have this jewel down the street so we went all out stocking up on t-​shirts, rain jackets, light weight jackets, hats, and yes, stickers! It’s a must stop if you’re in the neighborhood!

Ich schaue aus dem Fenster — schneeweiße Landschaft, minus 7 Grad. Ich schaue in meine Erinnerung — acht Monate zurück, warmes Wetter, laue Luft, Lust zum Einkaufen, Hawaii.

Ich brauchte eigentlich nichts. Aber Sohn und Schwiegertochter bestanden darauf, dass ein Einkauf bei Patagonia etwas besonderes sei. Ein Unternehmen, das sich dem Umweltschutz verschrieben hat, müsste man unterstützen. Und so fand ich etwas, was nicht auf dem Einkaufszettel stand.
Eine schicke Kurzhose — ich schaue aus dem Fenster und mir wird kalt dabei — wurde erstanden. Und da wir zu Viert dort waren, freute sich die Kassiererin über weiteren Umsatz.
Der Laden hier ist rustikal eingerichtet, mit viel Bekleidung, aber auch Sportartikeln ausgestattet. Wie üblich in den USA freundliche, service-​orientierte Bedienung, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Wer will, der wird fündig.
Patagonia — ich wusste es bis dahin nicht — ist eine internationale Kette (in Deutschland in München), die stark ökologisch ausgerichtet ist. Wie schreibt das Unternehmen selbst:
Unsere Definition von Qualität bezieht sich nicht nur auf unsere Produkte, sondern auch darauf, bei deren Herstellung die Umwelt so wenig wie möglich zu belasten. Wir prüfen dafür unsere Rohstoffe, investieren in innovative Technologien, entsorgen kontrolliert unseren Abfall und spenden einen Teil unseres Umsatzes an Gruppen, die sich engagiert für den Umweltschutz einsetzen. Wir haben erkannt, dass die unberührte Natur, die uns mehr als alles andere am Herzen liegt, immer mehr verschwindet. Deshalb verbindet alle unsere Mitarbeiter ein starkes Engagement, ursprüngliche Landschaften und Gewässer zu schützen. Wir verstehen unser Business auch als Mittel, Lösungen zur aktuellen Umweltkrise zu finden. Seit 1985 hat Patagonia aus seinen Geschäftsaktivitäten $ 35 Millionen an Umweltschutz-​Organisationen weiterleiten können.
Ich kann bestäigen, dass die Produkte von hoher Qualität zeugen, ohne dabei preislich überzogen zu sein. Im Umfeld des hiesigen Geschäftes gibt es viele weitere Einkaufsmöglichkeiten, so dass dem Shopping-​Glück keine Grenzen gesetzt sind. Und wer denn will, erwirbt auch ein neues Surfbrett — auf Hawaii eine lohnenswerte Anschafftung.
Fazit: Wer an dieser Adresse vorbeifährt, sollte anhalten und in den Laden schauen. Mit großer Wahrscheinlichkeit verlässt man ihn wieder mit einer Tüte bewaffnet. Und da es auch in Hamburg nicht nur Winter gibt, sondern im Sommer die Sonne vom Himmel strahlt, findet meine Patagonia-​Hose auch bei uns gute Einsatzmöglichkeiten. Bei vier Sternen.

This is my all time favorite Patagonia store. God knows I have been to a lot of them. The best part about this store is just how small and out of the way it is. Up on the North Shore of Hawaii, in the town of Haleiwa you’ll find some unique items here not sold at other Patagonia stores, like their t-​shirts.
The staff are super friendly and it’s amusing to see people buy winter parkas here where you’d think there would be no use for them. Apparently there aren’t many stores in Hawaii that sell Down jackets and stuff for people traveling off the island.
Nearby are some good places to eat and get coffee.

This is maybe my favorite Patagonia store. The staff is great, and they have a unique selection of stuff that you can only get on the island. They also sell nice surfboards, which is great!
Of course, their stuff is a little on the expensive side, but it is patagonia after all!

Cute store, great staff, nice selection of things.
I went to scope out the MLC bag because I was considering buying one on the spot. I’m glad I held out because I don’t care for one of the pockets.
Instead I bought a skirt and a sleeveless top. After paying for my things, I scored a few free stickers from the lady who rang me up. She asked where I was from, and turns out she knew the area quite well!
Customer service is always top notch, but I wish they weren’t so expensive with some of their stuff.

This Patagonia store is great esp. if you are a fan of Patagonia to begin with. Check out this store if you ever happen to be up in the North Shore. The staff shows their customers true aloha spirit and everyone really knows their product. There is a good local café in this shopping area as well as other shops and restaurants– a good place for tourists!

Man, I never thought I’d find a place selling parkas and down jackets in Hawaii, but Patagonia was representing. I just had to take a look at what they have cuz I’m a total Patagonia fan. It is a pricey vice though, so just browsed on this trip.

Love this Patagonia. The store itself is adorable and they have terrific sales items. I support the philosophy, ideology, dogma whatever you call it. They make excellent quality, stylish goods in a responsible way that doesn’t look or feel like potato sacks or smell like goats. Yes, I’ve had this misfortune.

Ok… usually I don’t shop at Patagonia cuz I know the stuff is expensive.
I happened to be cruising around the little strip mall that this was in and decided to stop in.
Wow… there was a sale… and not some «something called a sale to draw people in.» For a place like this, it was actually a «sale to make things reasonably priced.» So about $ 140 later, I walk out of there with 2 backpacks and another small pack.
I use one of the backpacks daily for work, with a laptop (even though it’s not a bag specifically designed for laptops), a couple notebooks and other stuff as well, and it has held up great, with no signs of falling apart at all. It just needs to be washed a little bit.
The other backpack has seen a couple random uses here and there, but it looks almost brand new with very little, if any wear showing on it.
The other small pack I use daily. I keep all my «stuff» in it from my wallet, keys, chapstick, phone, spare change, mp3 player etc. in it. It as well needs to be washed.
Best of all, as with all Patagonia stuff, they have lifetime warantees. I actually tested this with the little pack as I managed to get a hole in it within about 6 months. I took it into another store (the one in SF I think) and they replaced it, no questions asked.
So yes… you get what you pay for… and in this case, you can get it for like 50% off too.
