North Face

The North Face: Pioneers of the Peaks

Ever wonder what it takes to outfit adventurers and explorers who refuse to call any climb to hard? Enter The North Face, the brand that’s been equipping the bold and the brave since 1966. Born in the hippie heyday of San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood, it quickly moved from a small mountaineering retail store to a powerhouse in outdoor gear. Why? Because while others were busy walking the streets, The North Face was busy conquering peaks. Fast forward to today, and they're still leading the pack.

The North Face: Outfitting Your Next Adventure, Wherever It Takes You

The North Face isn’t just about looking cool in the cold or gearing up for glory. They're deeply committed to sustainability, without sounding like your high school science teacher. They prefer actions over words, turning recycled plastic into rad parkas and supporting conservation efforts that actually matter. They believe in repairing gear and reducing waste, because the only thing we should be leaving behind on our adventures are footprints (and maybe that flag on the peak).​

  • Renewable Energy Initiatives: Invests in renewable energy projects to reduce environmental impact from its operations.
  • Bottle Source Collection: Features products made from recycled plastic bottles collected from national park waste streams, reducing landfill waste.
  • Eco-Conscious Products: Offers a line of eco-friendly products under the "Eco Heritage" label, made using sustainable materials like recycled plastic.

Meet Filson, the old soul of outdoor gear with a heart for hardcore adventure. Born during the 1897 Klondike Gold Rush, this isn't just a brand—it’s a legacy wrapped in rugged canvas and tough-as-nails wool. Filson started by outfitting fortune-seekers with goods tough enough to survive the harsh conditions of the frozen Alaskan wilds, and they haven't slowed down since.

Rugged Elegance: Gear That Goes Anywhere

Fast forward over a century, and Filson's commitment to durability isn't just about surviving; it's about thriving in the great outdoors. Whether it's a stormproof jacket that keeps out the gnarliest weather or a bag that gets more handsome with each scratch and mud splatter, their gear is like a fine bourbon, better with age. And let's be honest, who doesn't want to look effortlessly cool while wrestling a salmon in a river or setting up camp in the backcountry?

Commitment to Conservation

Preserving the Wild

  • Collaboration with National Forest Foundation: Supports reforestation and forest management projects in the U.S., focusing on improving wildlife habitats and enhancing public lands.
