The campaigns is an ode to not only their 50 years, but to the outdoor elements which shape their innovative designs. The designs for The North Face products are largely focused on creating products that allow customers to ‘never stop exploring’ no matter what the weather is.
Rain is the element inspiration for the ‘Seek No Shelter’ campaign and as a creative way to celebrate, The North Face has collaborated with White Denim, which is and American Rock band from Austin, Texas, who have dedicated their song, “No Nee Ta Slode Aln,” to the launch of the Apex Flex GTX® jacket. This particular song debuted on Spotify in the US on March 13th, 2017th and using a geotargeting technology, only played for those located in cities where it was raining. Pretty cool huh?
