Heritage and History
Nau was founded by a team of outdoor industry veterans who believed that sustainability and performance could coexist in a single product — that it was not necessary to choose between high-performance outdoor apparel and responsible manufacturing. The company has operated with that mission since its founding, pioneering the use of recycled polyester and sustainable natural fibers in outdoor clothing.
The brand's Los Angeles manufacturing base for its Made in USA collection reflects a commitment to domestic production that allows direct oversight of labor and environmental conditions. Premium outdoor apparel sewn in LA combines West Coast aesthetic sensibility with performance specifications developed for serious outdoor use.
Made in Los Angeles, California
Nau's Made in USA collection is sewn in Los Angeles, California, using GOTS-certified organic cotton, machine-washable merino wool, and post-consumer recycled polyester fabrics. The Los Angeles garment district provides access to skilled sewers and specialized equipment that can work with technical fabrics requiring precise construction.
The sustainable fabric choices are not merely marketing — the organic cotton and recycled polyester have measurable environmental advantages over conventional alternatives, and the recycled fibers reduce dependence on virgin petroleum. For buyers who want performance outdoor clothing made with genuine environmental commitment and domestic manufacturing, Nau delivers on both counts.
