Get ready for a summit meeting of mountain style and urban edge. The North Face‘s coveted Purple Label line just linked up with Japanese fashion powerhouse Beams for a capsule collection that injects a dose of Tokyo cool into classic outdoor gear.
Three jackets headline the collab, each a unique reimagining of function and form. The Mountain Wind Parka is a nostalgic nod to the iconic Mountain Light jacket, a 90s favorite reborn in sleek black and navy taffeta with a double-zip closure that speaks to both performance and effortless style. The Balmac coat takes a timeless silhouette and throws it into the future with an avant-garde twist. Think clean lines, a muted palette of grey, olive, and navy, and a construction that seamlessly blends heritage with cutting-edge design. Finally, the Mountain Field jacket is Beams’ exclusive bomber masterpiece. This lightweight, insulated wonder (available in the same color scheme) offers both warmth and a downtown swagger that’s perfect for city explorations or mountainside adventures.
All three jackets boast the TNF logo proudly embroidered in white, a subtle nod to their roots. But the real magic lies in the Bayhead 65/35 fabric, a moisture-resistant, matte-finish blend of polyester and cotton that’s as tough as it is comfortable. Primaloft insulation keeps you toasty without weighing you down, making these jackets ideal for layering and conquering any urban jungle or literal mountain peak.
Mark your calendars and set your digital alarms – pre-orders are live now on the Beams website, but be prepared to wait until November to snag your piece of this limited-edition collaboration.
