The North Face has tapped Online Ceramics to create a collection in celebration of Earth Day. Inspired by ‘70s California climbing culture, the capsule features tees, hoodies, and outdoor gear all made with at least 75-percent recycled or organic fabric.
Online Ceramics, based in Los Angeles, is known for its small-batch, hand-dyed tees which often flaunt artwork inspired by the planet and the Grateful Dead. Likewise, its collection with The North Face comes decorated with graphics of Earth and prioritizes lower-impact manufacturing practices. As part of the collaboration, TNF is introducing Re-Grind, a process that repurposes scraps from factory floors to make new, wearable gear. The new program will soon expand to additional North Face pieces with a goal of converting 100 percent of the brand’s apparel materials to recycled, regenerative, or renewable products by 2025.
