CLOT is pleased to announce its first collaboration with the world-renowned outdoor sportswear expert The North Face. Seeing outdoor exploration as our dialogue with Mother Earth, the brands take us through the mountains and towards the misty peaks, introducing a collection that brings together elements of nature and stylistic aesthetics that aim to add colors to your journey.

“The core person that I am, it hasn't really changed over time, but my curiosities have, what gives me a successful feeling has. My mindset is actually exploration. Allowing yourself to see new things, allowing yourself to experience with clouds, sunset and sunrises, is a story that I've never told. I feel like The North Face was the perfect conduit for that story to be expressed,” shared Edison Chen, Founder and Creative Director of CLOT.

Reshaping outdoor wear with eminent style, the collaboration delivers a perfect combination of design and functionality. Nature-inspired elements encountered along the journey are translated through colors with hints of oriental charm, topped with technologically enhanced materials and creative layering ideas for maximized practicality. Edison Chen has also invited fashion designer Kazuki Kuraishi to participate in the project, integrating his unique fashion understanding into The North Face's outdoor pieces, creating more possibilities for outdoor wear.

“When I design, I normally think about the details first. I don't think too much about the concept, but Edison does. That's why we work together. I always think of good design as it is, but even beautiful design needs good function,” explained Kazuki Kuraishi, Fashion Designer.

Taking in the beautiful colors of nature while trekking through the mountains, The North Face and CLOT have put together a collection featuring captivating landscapes and sensual gradients. This new collaboration features a breathtaking sea of clouds above mountaintops, along with natural shades of lunar slate to lupine, reef waters, and macchiato for a unique aesthetic.

Thanks to DRYVENT technology, the CLOT x The North Face Shell Jacket features an all-over cloud print, topped with color-blocking sleeves and side seams to create a stylish outdoor look. Meanwhile, the new waterproof Poncho can be adjusted with the hidden buttons on the hem, ensuring a perfect fit. In addition to outerwear, the extensive The CLOT x The North Face collection also includes Fleece Pullovers in different colorways, each with a detachable hood and Chinese button knots signature to CLOT. Wear it with the matching Fleece Pants for extra warmth and comfort. Crafted from translucent materials, the Shell Pullover comes with a detachable hood and diagonal placket, designed for laying over the Fleece Pullover. All jackets can be styled with translucent Shell Pants or Fleece Pants for a solid look.

Discover the hidden gems in the mountains and cherish every moment. CLOT and The North Face have expanded their creative offerings to a range of accessories and footwear, so you can coordinate your outfits from head to toe. With a mesmerizing sea of clouds print, the Camping Blanket is made of heat-retaining fabric to protect against sudden temperature changes. Thanks to The North Face’s patented VECTIV™ and FUTURELIGHT™ waterproof technology, along with the high-traction SurfaceCTRL™ outsole, the VECTIV™ TARAVAL hiking shoe can provide exceptional stability and drive on any terrain. The collection also includes the ThermoBall™ Traction Mules and other outdoor-dedicated footwear, creating more possibilities for all kinds of exploration.

The CLOT x The North Face collection also debuts with childrenswear, offering more options to fashion and outdoor-loving families. From Shell Jackets to Fleece Pullovers and Fleece Pants, these children dedicated creations present little explorers with a piece of the ingenious design and care of the collection.

The CLOT x The North Face collection is set to pre-release at select JUICE selling doors on February 23, 2023, opening a new chapter in the combination of artistic expression and outdoor functionality.

We explore nature and it responds with colors
The stratus clouds altern in light and shadow, while distant stars shimmer
Capturing colors of the moment, anchoring our emotions
From fine stones at the base of the mountain to the sky above the summit
Never stop exploring
