where they sit in the whole fast fashion cheap manufacturing debacle.

It's a tough one. They made decent quality things, so I wouldn't categorise them as fast fashion.

Ultimately nothing made from cotton will ever be ethical or environmentally friendly. Anything made from synthetic materials will have detrimental impact at some point.

If the quality is there and you buy something with the intention of keeping it a long time then you can minimise the impact. I'd take something synthetic that's well made and gonna last over something made made of sustainable materials that falls apart after a year.

Definitely.

Until I recently got too tubby I still wore my dad's gortex Berghaus jacket that's got to be almost 40yo.
