The North Face Gets a Face Lift from Pendleton in this New Collection

Avid outdoor lifestyle brands The North Face and Pendleton launched their first ever collaboration on November 29. This limited edition capsule collection is teeming with outdoor protection, style, and all sorts of essentials to help you brave the colder elements this year and beyond, from mountain jackets and vests prepared for frozen temperatures to durable commuter packs, camp mules, and wool hats.

The outerwear and accessories line celebrates also shares rich heritage of outdoor adventure from each company, both in appearance and functionality. The American-made wool signatures from Pendleton, coupled with iconic silhouettes from The North Face, stands up against the cold while also adding a little spice to your winter wardrobe.

Through six generations of family-owned fabric innovation, Portland-based Pendleton crafts unique wool patterns with eco-friendly technology. The company signature is recognized and used worldwide, available in select retailers across the U.S., Canada, Europe, Japan, Korea, and Australia.

Seeing that both outdoor brands reside on the West Coast (The North Face is from California), it’s somewhat surprising that this is the first time we see the two names together. Nevertheless, the capsule is a perfect blend between The North Face’s favorites styles straight and Pendleton iconic colorways.

If you need something a little more stouthearted for your winter explorations, the Mountain Jacket ($499) boasts an Alpine shell that delivers durable, waterproof, breathable protection — and it’s available in Pendleton’s white or gray print.

Why you should be wearing the biggest underwear brand you’ve never heard of
Pair of Thieves is the third biggest underwear brand and they think your balls will love their fabric
Person, Body Part, Finger

I talk a lot about the importance of style. Fit, function, and fashion come together to make your personal appearance a reflection of who you are and who you intend to be. The value of quality over brand names. The importance of good tailoring over fast fashion. Wearing a suit the right way. The best shoes for your look. The way you can send a message without ever opening your mouth. But you know what I don't ever talk about? Skivvies. That's right, I don't talk about underwear. You know why? Because it is something that I (and I reckon you too) just don't think about. But, in ten minutes with David Ehrenberg, CEO of Pair of Thieves, that all changed. I started thinking about underwear. And he convinced me to try his brand, because he was certain that my balls would love it. He was right. But what is it about Pair of Thieves, and underwear in general, that made them skyrocket to the top of an industry most men don't think about?

Our goal isn't to make underwear some aspirational luxury item– it's to make it the best part of getting dressed. That's reflected in our fabric, our fit, and how closely we listen to real customer feedback. We see underwear as part of personal care, and upgrading it should feel easy, accessible, and genuinely worth it. - David Ehrenberg CEO Pair of Thieves
