Brand history
The North Face brand was founded in 1966 in San Francisco, California. The founders were Doug Tompkins and his wife Suzy, who originally conceived The North Face as a store for hiking and mountaineering enthusiasts. The brand’s name comes from the north side of a mountain, which is traditionally considered the most difficult to climb. Shortly after its creation, The North Face began producing its own line of clothing and equipment for extreme conditions, striving to provide maximum protection and comfort for people with active lifestyles.

The North Face manufactures a wide range of clothing and equipment, including:
- Outerwear — jackets, parkas, down jackets, and fleece jackets designed to protect you in cold conditions.
- Activewear — T-shirts, pants, and shorts that are perfect for hiking and everyday use.
- Footwear — hiking boots, sneakers, and sandals for various types of outdoor activities.
- Equipment — backpacks, tents, sleeping bags, and other goods for camping and mountaineering.
- Accessories — hats, scarves, gloves, belts, and various small items for travel.
