The original Californian activewear icons partner for a holiday collection.
Vans and The North Face were both founded in California in 1966, with a shared mission to inspire an active lifestyle of exploration and creative expression. Now more than half a century later, the OG Californian icons partner for a Holiday 2017 collection.
Championing an ethos of adventure, Vans join creative forces with The North Face to create an exclusive capsule of apparel, accessories, and footwear that fuses the brands' aesthetic voices and values to deliver a range of functional pieces for the imminent inclement weather. Arriving in a bold palette of black, white, red and yellow, the partnership highlights the Vans Old Skool and Sk8-Hi silhouettes, along with apparel and accessories treated with a signature technology to take you from urban terrain to rural landscapes, while keeping you warm and dry along the way.
With help from The North Face trusted Thermoball™ technology, Vans updated the Torrey Jacket with the synthetic PrimaLoft® fill to guarantee lightweight warmth in the coolest of conditions. The Vans x TNF Torrey MTE quilted jacket is featured in three colorways – red, black and yellow, and signed off with a Vans x TNF embroidered patch on the front. In accessories, Vans reimagines the iconic The North Face Base Camp Duffle, modified for the first time ever to include a skateboard strap. The bag dons the iconic The North Face logo with embroidered patch detailing.
Finally, Vans unveils four iterations of the Sk8-Hi MTE and Old Skool MTE, each featuring The North Face logo on the back heel counter, The North Face custom eyelet and a checkerboard lugged outsole. The full collection matches back to the primary red and yellow colorways, in addition to classic black and white for a striking contrast.
The Vans x The North Face Holiday 2017 capsule is now available at END.
