The North Face x Gucci is born out of a desire to connect the two brands and their values through the spirit of discovery.

Though it might not be the most obvious pairing, The North Face and Gucci just released their more than 80 piece collaborative collection. Announced last year, the collection is centered around what the two brands have proclaimed to share in common: challenging the status quo and equipping adventurers on their quests for self-expression. If you were skeptical at first, that feeling should wash away as you turn your attention to the lookbook and collection. Over the six years, Gucci has emulated an aesthetic vibe reminiscent of the 1970’s and 80’s, and with this collaboration the luxury fashion label is putting their mark on original The North Face designs from the 1970’s. The lookbook is filled to the brim with eccentricity and a side of functionality, creating a vibe best fit for an Elton John concert in the woods. Gucci had their way with the TNF catalog, setting the tone of the collection with looks featuring big sunglasses, silk scarves, cutoff denim shorts, flared pants, and colorful outerwear that could’ve been taken directly out of wardrobes of Keith Richards or Bianca Jagger. With more than 80 pieces sold in different locations around the world, this collection isn’t an easy one to wrap your head around. We’ve done the hard work for you and gathered the best pieces from the entire collection so that you don’t have to go searching.

 

The North Face x Gucci Cotton Sweater

Unlike a Supreme x TNF collaboration, the hottest and most desirable pieces from The North Face x Gucci aren’t just the outerwear pieces. Though the outerwear is excellent, it is the large combined The North Face and Gucci Web Print logos on the chest of crewnecks, hoodies, and t-shirts that demand the lion’s share of this partnership’s attention. This Cotton Sweater released only in this one colorway, making it something of a stand-out piece that sets both brands logos at the forefront of a beige crewneck. For anyone looking to flex their new and exclusive garments, this crewneck is the easiest way to do it, especially as winter begins its transition to spring. 

 

 

The North Face Gucci Tent

The North Face and Gucci weren’t kidding around with the whole “spirit of discovery” thing. This collection was actually made for taking on the woods and if you don’t believe us, just take this collaborative tent’s word for it. This tent is certainly the most eccentric piece released as a part of this collection but its inclusion delivers on the release’s purpose; equipping adventurers on their quest for self-expression. If you do make it to that Elton John concert in the woods this will make it easier to stay overnight if you’d like. 

 

Oversize Logo T-Shirt

The North Face x Gucci has something for everyone to admire. It’s got legitimate camping and hiking gear for the die-hard The North Face fans, it’s got fashion and logo pieces for those more interested in Gucci, and it’s got a pair of cutoff denim shorts for Harry Styles and those who dress like him. The collaboration included six t-shirts in varying colorways, all of which feature the combined TNF x Gucci Web Print Logos. The black and gold, beige, and gold and brown colorways have all been released in an oversized fit so think about sizing down if that’s not exactly the vibe you’re going for. If you’re looking to lock in this summer’s hottest t-shirt a little bit early, this is the one.

The North Face x Gucci Belt Bag

This black and white bag features an all-over print of the collaborative TNF x Gucci Web logo, presenting a unique eye-catching pattern that unashamedly demands attention. Smaller design details like the blue leather zipper fastening and the red and green tassel deliver a pop of color that not only fits the bag, but will add a little extra flare to your outfit as well. This is not your average belt bag and it’s certainly not trying to be.

 

The North Face x Gucci Nylon Jacket

Everyone knows that The North Face makes incredible outerwear so it should come as a surprise to nobody that the coats and jackets they released with Gucci are everything one would expect. This blue Nylon Jacket is made from a polyester blend with a soft feather goose down on the inside. The jacket is less flashy than most other pieces from this collection but still features a The North Face x Gucci label embroidered on the left arm. Flex on both the elements and your friends with this lowkey collaborative down-filled Nylon Jacket.

 

TNF x Gucci Self Tie Nylon Hat

If you’re a fan of the all-over print The North Face x Gucci Web Logo from the bag shown earlier, we’ve got some exciting news for you. The two brands also dropped a collaborative bucket hat featuring the pattern and it’s already one of the best selling pieces on StockX from the collaboration. The hat features a self-tying feature with a delightful brown accent around the rim of the hat. For anyone looking to keep their face out of the sun as the weather begins to get warmer, this bucket hat is an excellent way to do so in style.

Floral Nylon Bomber Jacket

The North Face x Gucci wouldn’t be a Gucci collaboration without some kind of print-heavy, maximalist outerwear inclusion. That’s just what we’ve gotten with this orange floral print Nylon Bomber Jacket. Made from a water-resistant nylon and filled with goose feather down, this jacket is fully prepared to take on the elements and look astounding while doing it. While it’s still not giving us logos the size of the crewnecks or t-shirts, if you’re looking for a jacket that’s fabulous, flamboyant, and functional, this floral Bomber Jacket is it.

The North Face x Gucci Mountain Jacket

This navy The North Face x Gucci Mountain Jacket delivers one of the outerwear brand’s most beloved jacket silhouettes in a pared down 1970’s take that’s both familiar and enchanting in its simplicity. Like a time machine, this jacket takes us back, invoking the nostalgia of a budding interest in fashion that grows and finds its final form in a TNF collaboration with Gucci. The timeless navy Mountain Jacket is presented with both form and function in mind, matching their collaborative logo patch to a water-resistant nylon material. For those looking to spend their hard earned cash on an outerwear piece they’ll still be excited to wear in 20 years, the Mountain Jacket is everything you could ever want.
