I haven't seen anyone wearing North Face gear in years.

Did anyone ever see the "frickFace" NorthFace logo sticker someone put on the wall in the old Zee Zee's back in the day

Edit: Because I would buy that on a jacket before North Face.

Well I guess I won’t be buying any more Northface. Already stopped buying Patagonia.

Will say I have found Relwen and their clothing is beyond top notch. I have their quilted tanker, their wind stop pants and their Vertical Insulator jacket plus boxers

Be lasting - Relwen

The good thing about capitalism is someone else will gladly take their money. What NF is doing is just dumb.

Would they reject a company as big as mcdonalds because cows are destroying the environment?

I sold TNF and the other expensive brands for 5 years.

I am here to tell you that Magellan and some if the other budget brands are just as good.

Add them to Patagonia for my “never again” brands. Too many competitorsj.

They should be ordering from Carhartt anyway. My Carhartt duck jacket was the best coat I’ve ever bought when I lived in Illinois.

North Face was a brand popular when I was in college. Mainly worn by preppy white girls. Like Abercrombie used to be. They are def marketing to a woke millennial crowd.

I purchase North Face clothing fairly often for my oil and gas clients and have never had a problem.

I haven't read the whole thread, but did North Face confirm this? Sounds more like the company providing the jackets was that one that wouldn't sell to them.
