The North Face History

In the mid-1960s a husband and wife duo began the now-famous North Face brand in San Francisco. The mountaineering couple’s shop sold backpacking equipment and climbing gear for even the toughest conditions. But the little shop quickly gained popularity and become a go-to for those looking to explore some of the least-tread-upon lands in the world.

In the 1980s, the brand experienced another wave of popularity among skiers and snowsports athletes. And in the 1990s, The North Face’s popularity broadened even further, catering to everyone from the casual backpacker and outdoor enthusiast to serious rock climbers and trail runners.

These days, The North Face brand remains globally popular both on the trail and at home owing to its quality, rugged apparel, footwear and accessories made for all conditions and for its classic designs, whether that’s in the form of trail shoes, fleeces or backpacks.
