Fans of The North Face will be happy to know that the outdoor label has returned to Singapore since its closure in 2017, this time with an innovative concept store. Located at VivoCity, the new store features three zones – Performance, Performance-inspired, and Urban Exploration.
The Performance and Performance-inspired collections feature gear and apparel suitable for any type of expedition, be it hiking trails or mountain climbing. On the other hand, Urban Exploration combines style and functionality in one, as seen in the new capsule collection titled ‘Urban Wander’. The new collection includes apparel with features like adjustable waistband drawcords and detachable panels that allow you to change up your look and silhouette to fit most occasions. The ‘Urban Wander’ pieces are also water-repellent and lightweight, so you can embark on your outdoor adventures in style.
You can also find The North Face’s Summit series for climbers and snow athletes, which is a high-performance collection that includes features like adjustability, reflectivity, and weather resistance that are sure to keep you warm when you’re high up in the mountains. If climbing sheer rock faces or challenging the snowiest peaks is your groove, head straight for The North Face’s Summit series, the brand’s highest-performance collection. It features technical gear with adjustable, reflective, and weather-resistant features to protect you in the most extreme conditions. Not straying far from Singapore? Breathable and lightweight fabrics with UV protection can be found in the Summer and Lightrange collections, which are perfect for Singapore’s hot and humid weather.
To celebrate the return of The North Face to Singapore and its new concept store, The North Face will be hosting pop-up activities at VivoCity’s event space from May 17 to 19, 2024. Learn various fundamental knot-tying methods, such as the figure eight, clove hitch, and stopper knot. There will also be an artefact ink dip, where you can paint a mountain-shaped Jesmonite with your favourite colours and use it as a trinket dish afterwards. This activity is limited to the first 25 participants daily, so arrive early to avoid disappointment.
