Visionary Design
The mastermind behind this collaboration, Jun Takahashi, has breathed new life into iconic pieces from The North Face, seamlessly merging fashion with functionality.
The collection is an embodiment of a free approach and the "search for the essence." It's a harmonious balance between tranquillity and chaos, representing a world we aspire to create.

Technical Mastery
Let's go deeper, we see here an inspiration of “search of emptiness”. Jun Takahashi has utilized some of The North Face's most advanced tech from their Summit Series and Advanced Mountain Kit Performance line.
The collection boasts hiking accessories such as fur-lined hats, practical backpacks, and gloves that spell out "peace" and "love." Among the standout pieces are the iconic Nuptse Down jacket, the 50/50 Mountain Down jacket and trousers, and the Futurefleece jumpers and trousers.
The collaboration is not just aesthetically pleasing but is designed as a full-blown, head-to-toe utilitarian uniform.
