The North Face taps into iconic pieces from its extensive archive to introduce its latest “Low-Fi Hi-Tek” collection for Spring/Summer 2023.

Reimagining nostalgia-evoking designs as well as taking cues from the brand’s history, the range celebrates the forward-thinking principles pioneered by architect Buckminster Fuller which were adopted by The North Face in the ‘70s.

Looking back at its 55-year heritage and the brand’s technological advancements in garment composition, the “Low-Fi Hi-Tek” collection offers elevated updates to some of The North Face’s most iconic silhouettes and fabric developments. Comprised of a selection of outerwear, pants and accessories, stand-out pieces from the range include a men’s Windjammer jacket, women’s Mountain jacket as well as a Pole Sleeve Oval Tent T-shirt.

Inspired by the Oval InTENTion, which revolutionized tent design in 1975, the color block palette fuses earthy neutral tones with vibrant pops of color present throughout the collection, keeping to the outdoor functional feel that the brand is known for.

The North Face “Low-Fi Hi-Tek” collection is available to purchase now from the brand’s website and select stores globally.
