The North Face Urban Exploration readies its Spring/Summer 2023 season with its new REDISCOVER “Natural Exploration” series. Known for bridging the boundaries between city wear and outerwear, the collection finds a delicate balance between functionality and style.

Utilizing unique technologies to enhance performance while also gearing up for an active summer aesthetic, the collection is fit for the outdoor city and nature explorer. Made with lightweight material and a muted palette, the pieces set the tone for a versatile collection focused on comfort.

The series features an array of wardrobe essentials, including boxy t-shirts, shorts, windbreakers vests, overshirts and more. Jackets, shorts and vests are multi-pocketed, adding to the functionality of the pieces. The collection comes in color-blocking hues, including neutral khaki, black and white tones as well as a muted purple for mixing and matching. All the pieces adopt a loose-fitting aesthetic and are equipped with water-repellent technology, keeping it windproof, and waterproof while also giving UV protection. Many of the apparel items have adjustable elastic fabric for added comfort.

Look out for the collection hitting select retailers and the official website now.
