In 1966, two hiking enthusiasts founded a small mountaineering retail
store in the heart of San Francisco's North Beach. The Company soon
became known as The North Face, a retailer of high-performance climbing
and backpacking equipment. (The name was selected because in the Northern
Hemisphere, the north face of a mountain is generally the coldest,
iciest and most formidable to climb.) In 1968, The North Face began
designing and manufacturing its own brand of high-performance mountaineering
apparel and equipment, and in the early 1980s, extreme skiwear was
added to the product offering. By the end of the decade, The North
Face became the only supplier in the United States to offer a comprehensive
collection of high-performance outerwear, skiwear, sleeping bags,
packs and tents.
 Now,
35 years after its start in the outdoor industry, The North Face provides
an extensive line of performance apparel, equipment and footwear.
Offering the most technically advanced products on the market, The
North Face is the choice of the world's most accomplished climbers,
mountaineers, extreme skiers, snowboarders and explorers. The North
Face is committed to pushing the limits of design, so that you can
push your limits outdoors -- never stop exploring.
