The North Face and Aimé Leon Dore Unveil Fall/Winter 2026 Collection Spanning New York and the Andes

The North Face and Aimé Leon Dore have released the second chapter of their collaboration, a Fall/Winter 2026 collection that bridges alpine heritage with Aimé Leon Dore's nostalgic New York sensibility. The lineup comprises 30 garments and accessories, reworking recognizable The North Face models such as the Nuptse, Mountain Jacket and Denali, alongside new silhouettes including the Fleece Rugby and the Ballistic Tech Vest, the latter inspired by 1990s utility clothing. GORE-TEX® returns to the partnership for the first time since 2019, while the Pertex Nuptse introduces a reversible construction with hood and Cloud Down technology. The campaign imagery alternates between the vastness of the Andes and the density of New York, presenting two distant landscapes united by a shared idea of exploration. The palette — bright yellow puffer, dark green, blue and earthy tones — stands out against the near-absolute white of the snowy landscape, while details such as the hat's Fair Isle motif evoke a more traditional outdoor imaginary. Completing the offering are the Base Camp Mule and Verto Alpine GORE-TEX® Hiking Shoes, plus duffels, beanies, scarves and gloves. Rather than forcing a choice between city and mountain, the two brands let them coexist, turning equipment built for extreme landscapes into part of the everyday uniform.
