Our new Q design Mountain Jacket is a scaled back modern interpretation of the original, but with updated features for a more streamlined everyday look.
DWR (Durable Water Repellent): A special surface treatment of the fabric which makes it hydrophobic - ie durable water-repellent.
DRYVENT™: A two-layer material, the outer layer repels water from the surface and protects against abrasion, and the inner layer removes air moisture, making the garment waterproof, breathable and provides dryness and warmth.
PFC-free water-repellent treatment: Here you can be sure that in the production of this piece, no PFCs (perfluorinated compounds) were used, ensure the material's water repellency.
100% Polyester: A synthetic fibre that is made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) and is known for its durability, low wettability and ability to dry quickly. Due to these properties, it is often used as an additive in textiles, which improves their performance properties such as shape retention and wrinkle resistance.

The popular outdoor brand with American roots was established in California in 1968. Despite bearing the name of the coldest and least accessible side of a mountain you can climb, it has helped many adventurers on their journey in the Himalayan mountains as well. In contrast, the story first started in sunny San Francisco when two hiking enthusiasts decided to open a shop with climbing equipment in 1966. The shop became quite popular, and two years later, The North Face moved to Berkeley on the other side of the bay. That's where the duo designed and created their own technical climbing products and equipment.
At the beginning of the '80s, The North Face brand became interested in skiing and added ski clothes for extreme conditions into its offer. And if you know how colorful the '80s were, you can imagine the color palette of these clothes too. Pastels, neons, pastels, and neons again. So put one and one together, and you'll realize where the colorful jackets, still popular today, came from. Thanks to all the adventures and exploring, the TNF soon stocked everything you might need, which is why it became the sole supplier of complex and high-quality equipment for extreme conditions in the US.
Over 50 years have passed, and The North Face outdoor equipment reached the top and it became a well-respected brand among mountain climbers, skiers, snowboarders, and other athletes. Thanks to collaborations with streetwear and fashion brands such as Vans, Supreme, Gucci, or Palace, TNF was popularized among fashionistas and artists, including Redman, Travis Scott, Method Man, or Drake.
The North Face is available at Footshop. The collection features T-Shirts, hoodies, windbreakers, iconic puffer jackets or winter jackets, and popular duffle bags. Never stop exploring!
