Nau has high quality clothes, super comfy.
I like that it warms you to the core and sheds water.
Sweet
I love finding companies from whom I can buy clothes without having to wonder if they are truly eco-friendly. Nau is definitely one of those companies. I also love that Nau’s transparency. Their code of conduct and all their other policies are available at their website for all to see. That is commendable.
Nau’s high quality and style are quite impressive and much likeable! Thanks for the great opportunity.
I love everything about their business model. How can you argue with this?
We only deserve to exist if our products and our practices are capable of contributing to positive, lasting and substantive change.
Our goal: To demonstrate the highest levels of citizenship in everything we do: product creation, production, labor practices, the way we treat each other, environmental practices and philanthropy. We believe that companies have a broader responsibility than simply generating profit. That’s one reason we’re blending profitability and philanthropy, what we believe is the new measure of success. Lofty? Perhaps. We didn’t invent all the ideas we seek to combine, but we will stake ourselves to them.
We’ll screw up sometimes, but we’ll own up to our mistakes and keep moving forward, questioning assumptions in our efforts to get better. We invite you to do the same: Question us. Challenge everything we do. It’s the only way we can truly improve.
Becaus they are sooooo comfy!
nau looks warm and flexable. great for a day on the slopes
recycled materials…how wonderful.
would love to try this clothing line.
I like that they have great clothing and they are committed to being environmentally responsible.
A nice hoodie. My daughter would love it, since she wears the hoodies a lot. Thanks for having the contest!
I like their sleek styling and rich fabrics. Their clothing is so much cooler than the just-another-hoodie-from-the-mall junk.
Nau is known for quality, style and environmentally ethical clothing
It looks stylish and warm.
The Nau label means good quality, green manufacturing, and social responsibility, and looks smart to boot!
What a great company thanks for introducing me to them. I had not heard of them. Living in the northwest part of the country I am always looking for clothes that work for the weather and are hip which is the hard part!
I love that Nau is stylish and hip.
I like the indulgent jacket. Very nice!!
I am glad that Nau is trying to use renewable resources to make their clothing.
They are environmentally friendly and comfortable, too.
NAU appears to produce great sustainable design wear, and who doesn’t love a hoodie?
I like the extra pockets.
Developing better, more environmentally friendly fabrics to raising the bar for functional, elegant designs.
These look amazing, I plan on getting one for me and my gf. Maybe even win one as well!!
They have put a lot of thought into how they are approaching both the clothing offered and how they run their business.
I like that some of their clothing is made in Canada. I think sometimes we forget about our neighbor to the north. My husband would love the male fleece
The fabrics look warm without being overly bulky. I hate feeling like the Pillsbury Doughboy in order to stay toasty.
I appreciate that they use sustainable, recycled materials for their fabrics.
I like Nau because their products look great and are high quality!
they have such hip and stylish clothes
I like the design of the hoodie.
I would like to win the female hoodie for my daughter – I would like to introduce her to clothes from NAU. Thank you for this chance.
