The North Face Embraces Its Inner Snow Bunny With Year of the Rabbit Collection
The start of the Lunar New Year is weeks away and The North Face is gearing up with its snow bunny-approved Year of the Rabbit collection.
The special launch reimagines familiar sportswear pieces in a vivid color palette of bright red, fluorescent yellow, as well as earthy khaki and features festive motifs, paying homage to the spirit of the occasion. Prioritizing function and performance, the collection includes the iconic 1996 NUPTSE jacket, outfitted in an exclusive print, artfully comprised of rabbit silhouettes. The outerwear item delivers tenfold as it is created with 700-fill RDS-certified down and original shiny ripstop fabric, providing unparalleled durability. The 1996 NUPTSE does not compromise on comfort as its design offers maximum warmth, while remaining lightweight enough for fast-paced winter excursions.
Other standouts include the classic 86 Retro Mountain jacket, which bears a loose, vintage-inspired shape, alongside the laminated and waterproof DryVent™ 2L iteration. The Year of the Rabbit also includes an array of cozy sweaters and suede T-shirts, perfect for layering. The celebratory collection also introduces brand-new footwear by The North Face. The NUPTSE MULE, or camp shoes, arrive with an exceptionally durable, high-grip rubber sole and ThermoBall™ warming technology. Their innovative design stands against inclement weather, whether it be cold or wet conditions, making them well-suited for adventurous explorers.
The launch does not leave behind bite-sized travelers as kidswear items catch the eye, boasting an array of uber-saturated colors and joyful prints.
