Born in 1966, in a humble shop in San Francisco, Doug Tompkins opened a storefront and started a revolution. Since then, The North Face has remained committed to recycling and reusing, advocating for wilderness preservation, and made choices aimed at protecting the places people love. The North Face specializes in technical mountaineering equipment and apparel including sleeping bags, hiking packs, tents, skiwear and high-performance outerwear, as well as performance apparel, footwear and equipment for explorers, climbers and endurance runners (among others).
As the weather gets warmer and the great outdoors are calling, we’ve teamed up with The North Face to give you the low-down on their top Rainwear products. With a variety of rainwear available at The North Face, you may be wondering what you should look for? Thankfully, The North Face offers a wide range of options to pick from.
For general outdoor use, a softshell jacket is a versatile choice. The Antora jackets are a versatile waterproof option. Made with 100% recycled fabrics, this water-repellent, breathable, and windproof shell features secure-zip pockets and an adjustable hood.
