Innovex Downhole Solutions, an oil and gas business based in Houston, tried to order jackets from The North Face and were rejected because they supply oil and gas. If only The North Face cared as much about all the cartels pouring into the country.
Innovex CEO Adam Anderson wanted to buy employees a North Face jacket with an Innovex logo for Christmas. They ordered from The North Face in the past.
REJECT
But The North Face won’t support oil and gas and rejected the order.
โThey told us we did not meet their brand standards,โ Anderson said. โWe were separately informed that what that really meant is was that we were an oil and gas company.โ
โThe recreational activities they [The North Face] encourage are all ones that require hydrocarbons to make the products, to provide the means to get to whatever activity folks want to perform,โ Anderson said. โItโs just so intertwined with everything that we do.โ
Anderson responded to The North Face via LinkedIn, penningย a 4-page letter about the oil and gas industryโs importance to modern lifeย that went viral.
Anderson said, โHydrocarbons are important not only to energy but to most the products we consume and utilize today,โ listing some.
Innovex still got the jackets but elsewhere.
North Face hasn’t responded to CBS7 but on their site, The North Face says by 2030, all their clothes and equipment will be “responsibly sourced.”
Oil and gasย are very respectable and we are indebted to them, so is The North Face.
THEY GET OWNED
The hypocrites use hydrocarbons in about 90% of their products. That led to theย CEO of an oil and gas company — Liberty — to put out a thank you to The North Face for their support of their industry.
The North Face still won’t get it or react normally. They are ideologues and ideology is very dangerous. They will virtue signal and then turn around and use the very products they disdain — but you can’t.
The fossil fuel industry is fighting back!
Watch:
WATCH: North Face refused to make jackets for an oil and gas company.
So the fossil fuel industry is fighting back with a new campaign โthankingโ North Face for using so much petroleum in their products.
