Cool girls, this is your new uniform: The North Face x Aimé Leon Dore debuts with down and windproof jackets
The North Face teams up with Aimé Leon Dore for the first time, turning classic down and windproof pieces into a new style goal for cool girls.
As fashion’s gender lines continue to blur, there are more options to explore while shopping.

Its stylish Urban Exploration Black Series is one draw, while collaborations with CLOT, Undercover, and most recently Aimé Leon Dore continue to surprise.

New York-based Aimé Leon Dore was founded by Teddy Santis. Santis’ role as creative director of New Balance, along with LVMH’s investment in the label, speaks to the brand’s unstoppable momentum. Alongside the release of its Fall/Winter 2025 collection, Aimé Leon Dore has officially unveiled its collaboration with The North Face, featuring such classics as the Nuptse down jacket, Denali fleece jacket, Borealis backpack, and Verto performance hiking shoes.

Made with a 3-layer waterproof technical fabric, the jacket offers windproof and waterproof protection while bringing traditional firefighter-uniform details into a modern performance design. A D-ring at the cuff and reinforced high-tenacity nylon panels pay tribute to two The North Face icons: the Mountain Jacket waterproof, breathable shell and the Base Camp duffel.

Made from Casentino wool by a renowned Italian mill, this fabric is deeply rooted in Aimé Leon Dore’s DNA. Produced using centuries-old Tuscan craftsmanship and specially treated to create its distinctive curled texture, the wool offers warmth and water-repellent properties.

This high-tenacity nylon is commonly used on the bottom of The North Face’s classic Base Camp duffel to improve abrasion resistance in harsh conditions.
