We are thrilled to announce the launch of The North Face Renewed's REMADE Gear Live Auction and Collection. The auction features four one-of-a-kind pieces designed by The North Face Design Team to address the issue of surplus gear. All auction proceeds will be donated to Protect Our Winters (POW), a global non-profit that helps outdoor enthusiasts protect the places and lifestyles they love from climate change.
The auction opens on Saturday, February 25th, and closes Thursday, March 2nd.
Using Archive's auction functionality,customers enter the highest price they are willing to pay for an item, and our system automatically bids on their behalf. This allows bidders to participate in the auction process without needing to continually remain active on the site.
At auction close, winners will be notified, their details confirmed, and their auction items shipped immediately to them.
In addition to the auction, The North Face has debuted a REMADE Winter Collection, a selection of six snow and ski industry items that have been redesigned for new adventures. Each piece was individually assessed by an expert designer at The North Face Renewed, undergoing extensive repairs or salvaging usable materials to create the unique items seen on site. All items are now available for purchase.
Keen to keep XPLR pass members and brand loyalists engaged in sustainability initiatives, The North Face team tasked Archive with building a unique auction activation that would keep used winter gear in circulation. Archive built a custom page on the Renewed site so that XPLR members could get exclusive access to the auction prior to the general public.
As a leader in the outdoor industry, The North Face acknowledges the impacts that their products and operations have on the environment and takes ambitious steps to conserve resources and promote circularity. Each REMADE item has been expertly crafted using recycled winter apparel and accessories, giving new life to some of the brand’s most iconic gear through repairs and refurbishments. The collection represents the epitome of circular apparel and the pinnacle of innovative design.
