The North Face highlights Klein blue
20/08/2024
The brand has applied this colour, which Yves Klein spent years finetuning, to its most advanced Summit Series products as a symbol of the notion of intense dedication that they share, it said.
The Summit Series x IKB collection features the Summit Vectiv Pro 2 trail running shoe, along with a waterproof and breathable jacket, Summit Superior Futurelight, with matching pants. A new mid-layer, Altimetro LT 180g, is said to offer a good balance between warmth and breathability due to its Sretch Dotknit structure.
The collection is sold on the brand’s French website and in select stores. Its launch coincides with the upcoming Mont Blanc ultra trail race, UTMB, which takes place in Chamonix from August 26 to September 1.
