The north face of a mountain (in the northern hemisphere) is generally considered the hardest to climb due to its aspect and the kudos of this was what eventually came to inspire the naming of the brand The North Face. Established in 1968 in San Francisco, the brand reached UK shores in the early seventies and has continued to be pioneering with quality, performance and innovation at it's core.
Countryside Ski & Climb has stocked The North Face products for over 30 years now and by quirk of geography, we were actually the first ever stockist in the UK! As a specialist we are proud to showcase their impressive Summit Series range and we also carry their timeless favourites that work on the hill as well as looking great for just every day.
