● Size ● L Length: 70 cm Width: 52 cm ● Color ● White ● Brand ● The North Face ● Material ● 100% Polyester ● Description ● In 2005, a miraculous collaboration between The North Face and Patagonia was realized for the first time, with each manufacturer releasing products using different materials. This collaboration T-shirt is often mistakenly described as from the 90s on Mercari and other flea market sites. At the time, sports climbing was popular, and both brands frequently sponsored competitions, creating this T-shirt as proof of their shared spirit of cooperation. It was sold in limited quantities and through limited channels, making it a hot topic at the time. Patagonia's version featured a white body made of organic cotton, while The North Face's version had a black body made of TEK polyester (sweat-wicking, quick-drying) material. This miraculous collaboration was a Japan-exclusive product jointly produced by the import agents in Japan. It was not released in the United States. We Have Been Supporting Climbers For More Than 30 Years. "We have been supporting climbers for over 30 years." The original photo for the printed illustration is of Masanori Hoshina, author of "Alpine Climbing" and a free climbing instructor. The North Face and Patagonia actually have a very close relationship. Doug Tompkins, the founder of The North Face, and Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Patagonia, were friends who climbed together since their twenties. Yvon was with Doug when he died in a kayaking accident. The Fitz Roy skyline, which is the Patagonia brand logo, is also a mountain that Doug and Yvon climbed together. If you're interested, please watch the movie "180° South." Their journey is recreated in the film. Overall, there is some slight pilling, but it's not noticeable, and there are no stains. The condition is quite good. Definitely a miraculous piece. ※※※※※※ I am a private seller, so those who expect high-quality packaging are not suitable.
