When it comes to KAWS, diversity plays an enormous part in his creative output. The Brooklyn-based artist draws from multiple sources to inspire his work, blurring the lines of distinction between artwork and a slew of other disciplines ranging anywhere from fashion to music.

The collection includes key pieces from The North Face’s archives — like the 1996 Nupste, the 1986 Mountain jacket and Basecamp duffle bag — which are covered in KAWS’ abstract patterns in a riot of rainbow hues, with some constructed using contrasting panels to drive home the look. To complete the collaborative look, each piece is detailed with co-branded logos, teaming KAWS’ signature ‘XX’ motif with The North Face’s iconic Half Dome logo.
