On the occasion of the first Italian edition of The North Face Mountain Festival 2018, in Val San Nicolò, in the heart of the Dolomites, the outdoor brand has decided to open in a temporary store at 2,100 meters high.
Here, in this particular space open until on Sunday 5th August and only reachable on foot, with about two hours of biking, the label has grouped together a collection consisting of 8 iconic pieces, used by extraordinary athletes on the occasion of major sports enterprises, but renewed and enriched for the event. Some examples? The down jacket worn by Alex Honnold in Antarctica, worn by Tamara Lunger in an attempt to climb the Nanga Parbat or the first ascent of Hervé Barmasse on the west face of Cerro Piergiorgio in Patagonia.
Sports enthusiasts can try to win one of these relics thanks to the online auction, open until 11.55 pm on Sunday 5 August 2018 at the link. The profit will be donated on charity to the SAT of Trento.
