Gucci and The North Face have collaborated on a special capsule collection celebrating their shared spirit of exploration.
This special cross-category collection for men and women comprises of ready-to-wear, soft accessories, luggage and shoes, as well as some more unexpected pieces linked to the outdoor world of The North Face, such as tents and sleeping bags.
To celebrate the collaboration, Gucci and The North Face have created a unique geodesic dome as one of the dedicated Pit Stops along the Desert X Contemporary Art Exhibition.
This installation uses different materials that recall concepts related to the temporariness of landscapes, travel and exploration and is covered in a pattern from the collection.
The Pit Stop is located in close proximity to a number of hiking trails in the area and just steps away from the entrance of the Cactus to Clouds trailhead, a challenging 19.8 mile point-to-point trail that features beautiful wild flowers.
