Nau They’re Back!
Date: June 26, 2008 | Category: Events, Fashion, Lifestyle, Men
A little over a month ago we sadly reported that sustainable fashioneer Nau was closing their highly regarded doors for lack of funding. There were a lot of really unhappy Nau enthusiasts. But we have amazing news! In part, due to the outcry from loyal customers, Nau employees kicked it into high gear to save their brand and eventually found a SoCal outdoor apparel company called Horny Toad to purchase them. They will now exist autonomously under Horny Toad’s umbrella. So Nau is gone no more. Of course there’s a lot more to this story; to learn the details on what went down, check out this Treehugger article. More good news: The clothes on Nau’s website will remain 50% off through July. So grab those bargains while the second evolution of Nau is in the making. We cannot wait to see the next iteration. FYI, the guys jeans are gorgeous and a great deal at $69.

Hi - You forgot to mention the corporate giving part. They donate 5% of your purchase to a list of charities that you get to pick from. They tell you during check out how much will be donated (mine was $4.95) I picked the Oregon Food Bank. So cool. I hope Horny Toad keeps this going.
