Holiday Gift Guide: The North Face at Adventure 16

Holiday Gift Guide The North Face at Adventure 16

The North Face and specialty retailer Adventure 16 share something super cool in common: They’re all about getting people outdoors. Their goal: inspire you to push your own boundaries—and step outside to explore … Ski, hike, snowboard, climb, trek, run … whatever gets you going! And when you do get going, be sure to let Adventure 16 and The North Face outfit you.

Since its founding days in San Francisco (circa 1966) The North Face has consistently made top performance gear and clothing, like the geodesic dome tent and shingled synthetic sleeping bag along with stylish jackets utilizing Thermoball insulation technology.

Southern California’s locally owned and operated Adventure 16 was one of the first specialty retailers to offer The North Face’s super reliable, forward-thinking gear. In fact, it’s been a beautiful 44-year relationship. That’s why at Adventure 16 you’ll find the largest selection of The North Face gear and clothing in the West. So this holiday get outdoors and shop local!
