The North Face vs Patagonia - Dirtbags | 1

It’s the 1960s, and two climbing buddies are about to lay the foundations for a new industry.

Niether dreams of riches. They just want enough money to keep climbing. But when they both start businesses based on their hobby, little do they realize that they’re about to climb the heights of corporate America too.
