Our time. Our future.

We are committed to making the best products on earth—and keeping

Mother Nature, our communities and the future in focus.

Our Commitments

Nature is at the heart of what we do. It’s why we created four actionable commitments guided by science-based targets set by our parent company, VF.

Complete the circle.

Circularity means giving old gear new life. We’re flipping the status quo of how we make gear and how you can dispose of it more responsibly. By revolutionizing our materials, processes and supply chain through a new vision of circularity, we can work together to turn old gear into new adventures.
     

Make the best better.

100% of our top materials (polyester, cotton and nylon) are expected to be recycled, responsibly-sourced renewable or regeneratively grown. We’re making progress toward achieving this goal for apparel by 2025, and footwear and equipment by 2030.
     

Extend our reach.

We’re committed to reducing our supply chain greenhouse gas emissions by partnering with key suppliers to help them cut their Scope 1 and 2 emissions in half by 2030. These efforts will have a positive impact on the industry as a whole, beyond The North Face.
     

Rethink packaging.

We’re working to eliminate single-use plastic packaging by 2025. For other forms of packaging (including both plastic and paper), we’re reducing where possible and ensuring new materials used are more recyclable.
      

Made with Mother Nature in mind.

To earn our Exploration Without Compromise badge, products must be made with 75% or greater recycled, regenerative and/or responsibly-sourced renewable materials. If the product has a DWR finish, it must be a non-perfluorinated chemicals (non-PFC) DWR.
