About the original
The North Face Salty Dog Beanie is a cuffed knit beanie with a fold-over brim, a lined interior band for warmth, and an embroidered logo at the cuff. The North Face was founded in San Francisco in 1966, starting as a climbing and backpacking retailer before it moved into making its own tents, sleeping bags, and outerwear. The beanie is a cold-weather accessory rather than a piece of the brand's technical line: a knit cap built for layering under a hood. Supreme has re-released it across fall/winter seasons in rotating colors, and its knit construction and logo placement match the standard North Face Salty Dog beanie.
About The North Face
The North Face is an American outdoor apparel and equipment company founded in 1966 by Douglas and Susie Tompkins as a mountaineering retail store in San Francisco's North Beach neighborhood. The company introduced the Sierra down parka in 1968 and the geodesic Oval Intention tent in 1975, and its Nuptse down jacket, released in 1992, is named for the 7,861-meter Himalayan peak. The brand now produces the Summit Series, Steep Tech, and Denali fleece lines under VF Corporation ownership. Supreme and The North Face have run one of streetwear's longest ongoing collaborations, releasing seasonal capsules each spring and fall since 2007.
