June 16, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Providing superior outdoor sportswear, such as the Men's North Face hoodie, F.L. Crooks also subscribes to a superior green shipping practice to help protect and preserve the natural resources their customers appreciate.

F.L. Crooks & Co., a specialty store in Clarion, Pennsylvania, has made their boutique collection of outdoor sportswear, such as the men's North Face hoodie and much more, available online. This premier collection is now available to a larger audience, and the store has not compromised their commitment offer only the best in versatile clothing and specialty items. To that end, incorporating a more environmentally responsible shipping practice is aligned with their high standards.

"Customer service is a top priority and it drives every business decision we make, from the way we determine which products we offer to the types of promotions we launch. We offer select items, such as the men's North Face Denali jacket and Patagonia outdoor items, and the customers interested in this type of quality outdoor apparel are almost always advocates for the environment. We like our customers to know that our business practices are in line with their concerns," states Lydia Crooks, who is co-owner of F.L. Crooks, focusing on public relations and Internet sales.

When F.L. Crooks ships a men's North Face Denali jacket or a Patagonia hoodie for her, they get creative. With a stockroom filled with boxes and shipping materials, it just makes good sense to recycle and reuse them. They reuse the packing material, boxes that are in good condition and use recycled or brown paper for wrapping. Going with new materials is a last resort.

"Our priority remains firmly set with making sure the customer's order arrives on time and in perfect condition. But we get so many boxes from vendors that hardly even appear used--it's a waste to just toss those boxes, when we can simply pass along," adds Crooks.

F.L. Crooks encourages their customers to emulate these practices. They can save the box in the event that an item needs to be returned or reuse it for their own shipping purposes.

F.L. Crooks recently celebrated 105 years in business and is currently offering discounts on men's Nautica and Columbia Sportswear, as well as other select items. To learn more about their green shipping or to browse current sales, visit the F.L. Crooks website at http://www.flcrooks.com.
