The North Face® Founding

In 1966, in San Francisco, a small fishing port called Shashadori, Doug and Thompkins both tried to conquer an unknown peak on the edge of Whitney. It seemed to be insignificant because of the lack of equipment. However, after a small decision by both of them, it brought a big change to the entire outdoor sports community. The establishment of an outdoor sports equipment retail store initially originated from the desire to climb and provide better protection for local climbers and skiers. Today they bravely climbed the heights of their beliefs and made it an inspiration for people to explore the limit today. The North Face® has always focused on the development and development of outdoor areas.

People who love mountaineers know that in the northern hemisphere, the northern slope of the mountain is the coldest, most snow-covered and most difficult to climb side, and in the name of The North Face® it is alluding to true mountaineering enthusiasts. Fear, meet with difficulty. At the same time, the beliefs of Doug and Thompkins have been handed down to The North Face® brand for nearly half a century and have been hailed by outdoor enthusiasts all over the world. As a result, “Explore Never Stop ExploringTM” has become the slogan for The North Face® brand. The North Face logo was inspired by the Half Dome in Yosemite Yosemite National Park. It was also the ultimate goal for climbing enthusiasts to climb granite. We use this to express the brand's challenging and progressive spirit of discovery.
