The North Face

The North Face. It was in 1966 that a duo of avid hikers decided to found a small business specializing in mountaineering equipment. Quickly, the young company gained reputation and began to finance expeditions to some of the most remote regions of the globe. Thus was born their motto: "Never stop exploring". 50 years later, The North Face has become the company we know today, always at the forefront of modernity, whether in style or in the design of its products.

Choosing North Face means choosing quality, design, technology and high standards, all at an affordable price, or even downright cheap. If North Face stands out so much compared to its other competitors, it is thanks to their FUTURELIGHT technologies, which are constantly pushing the limits of the textile industry. Thermoball, Gore-tex, Polartec, or Windstopper to name a few, are some of these FUTURELIGHT technologies that completely change the game when faced with the usual problems that can be encountered in the high mountains. I could still tell you about Flashdry, Primaloft, Tka, Apex Flex, Windwall, Ventrix, or Fuseform, so many other revolutions that have opened up new possibilities.

 The HERITAGE collection also perfectly illustrates the North Face mentality with its line of action: "draw inspiration from the past to move forward". Because it is good by taking advantage of the experience of great athletes that The North Face develops its product lines. If you are not very mountain, it does not matter, North Face develops lighter and more functional clothing for the outdoor, but also the everyday life. Indeed, The North Face is not limited to winter clothing, there are also summer collections for those who do not like snow. An incredible choice of sportswear, shoes, backpack or caps. Light, design, comfort with quick drying, whether for mountaineering, running, hiking or climbing.

The North Face is also a brand that fights for the preservation of the environment. This is why, in their new European headquarters in Switzerland, 100% of the electricity is supplied by renewable sources. That's not all, North Face is also developing cutting-edge strategies with its Clothes the Loop clothing and shoe recycling program, and their RDS ethical standards for down.
