The North Face is back with two new capsules to ring in the cold weather of the holidays. This season, the brand remains close to its technical roots and brings both a classic and bold twist to its apparel.

The first of the capsule collections this year is the Conrad Anker capsule which pays homage to the brand’s climbing team for 26 years until 2018. Since Anker has always been known for his expeditions and commitment to exploring, the capsule focuses on just that – expedition-inspired styles that also feature a clean aesthetic. All the pieces in the collection are available in a staple black, symbolizing the timelessness of adventurous moments. Highlight the Conrad Anker capsule is the Jolly Roger flag seen on the pieces, a staple that Anker himself brings on all his expeditions, along with his famous quote, “Hold fast, all storms pass,” printed on the sweater and jackets.

In the second collection, the Color Block Capsule features classic heritage styles specifically taken from The North Face’s own ’70s era archives. The energetic holiday lineup features an abundance of styles in bold, vibrant colorways. The capsule includes a range of silhouettes featuring everything from rugby polos, parkas, to fleece pants and jackets. Like the name of the capsule, it provides fans with a cheerful and eyecatching aesthetic to brighten up the colder days of the upcoming season.

The Conrad Anker collection is available starting on November 26 while the Color Block collection becomes available on November 30. Those interested can find the pieces in-store or online at The North Face.
