The Stories We Wear: Zahan Billimoria
“Most of my early climbs were epics. I had no idea what I was doing,” says Patagonia Snow Ambassador Zahan Billimoria. “Did them all in that pair of baselayers. They were my earliest connection to my own dreams.” As he explains in a new episode of “The Stories We Wear”—our series about great tales of gear as told by their humans—a serendipitous sale-bin find sparked a lifelong commitment to chasing powder.

The Stories We Wear: Jenn Shelton
“I don’t get that dopamine hit when you get a new thing the way I get a dopamine hit when I put on an old piece,” says Patagonia Ambassador Jenn Shelton. That feel-good vibe is especially potent with her Micro Puff® Jacket. One of her fondest memories is wearing it on a 10-day trek through the Dolomites with her 10-month-old son. As she explains in “The Stories We Wear”—our series about great tales of gear as told by their humans—it also reminds her that she still belongs. Video by Mattias Evangelista.
The Stories We Wear: Fran Berrocal
Before she became a fly-fishing guide in Coyhaique, Chile, Fran Berrocal learned the ropes—or reels, in this case—in borrowed waders before getting her own in 2019. Now, she’s the one lending out what she’s dubbed her “new beginnings waders.” With all those excursions, her gear’s been through a lot, but its patches and scars only add to its history. In our new episode of “The Stories We Wear”—our series about great tales of gear as told by their humans—Fran explains why her well-loved waders make her feel like a superhero.

The Stories We Wear: Brooklyn Bell
“I don’t like to take up a lot of space,” says Patagonia Ambassador Brooklyn Bell. “Those pants forced me to really just shine.” When she first put on her mauve Dirt Craft Pants, Brooklyn wasn’t just field-testing the gear. She was also testing her ability to own space in her sport. As she explains in a new episode of “The Stories We Wear”—our series about great tales of gear as told by their humans——proudly sending it in purple-pink pants became a lesson in leadership.
