The North Face: a legendary brand that ticks all the boxes

Founded in 1966 in San Francisco, The North Face began as an expedition equipment brand. The goal: to provide technical, durable, and functional clothing to tackle extreme conditions. The brand quickly gained the trust of athletes and then attracted the general public.

But what explains its lasting success on the vintage market is a unique blend of technical legitimacy , real quality and cultural power :

• Long-lasting quality : TNF fleeces last for years without losing their shape or comfort.
• Recognizable design : The “Half Dome” logo has become iconic, especially on Denali models.
• Fashion popularity : between collaborations with Supreme, 90s models that have become cult and the “outdoor vintage” wave, TNF remains a sought-after reference.
• Eco-responsible strategy : with its “Renewed” and “Take Back” programs, the brand encourages the second life of its products — thus strengthening their resale value.

Why TNF fleeces are a hit on the resale market

1. Constant demand, all year round

Unlike some seasonal pieces, fleeces sell well almost year-round. They're used as mid-season layers, as lightweight jackets in spring, and as thermal layers in winter. The result: regular turnover and little dead stock.

2. Attractive margins for resellers

Standard models easily resell for between €20 and €35 on platforms like Vinted or in stores. Premium or rare pieces (Denali, collaborations, vintage editions) can climb much higher depending on their condition and size.

3. Immediate recognition

TNF's strong branding reduces the storytelling work required on each product page. The brand inspires trust—it's a natural selling point that simplifies conversion.

4. Ease of wholesale sourcing

The North Face fleeces are widely available on the second-hand market in Europe. Thanks to carefully curated boxes, you can quickly build up a coherent, sorted, and resalable stock without spending hours rummaging through each item.

Which models should you choose to maximize your margins?

The essentials to watch out for:

• Denali Fleece → The most iconic. Two-tone structure, sturdy zippers, strong vintage look.
• Glacier & 100 Series → Thinner models, perfect for layering. Resell quickly.
• Vintage 90's → Loose cuts and retro colors are very popular in streetwear.
• Collab & limited editions → Supreme × TNF, rare technical capsules = jackpot for resellers.
• Neutral colors (black, beige, gray) → Always easy to place.
• Sizes M to L → Heart of demand on the platforms.

💡 Insider tip: Models with embroidered shoulders and chest logos sell the fastest online. Full-zip versions are also more popular than half-zip versions.

Practical tips to boost your sales

• Cleaning & Reconditioning: A slightly pilled fleece can be restored to its original appearance with a fabric shaver or pilling machine. Clean, steam, and fold properly: presentation matters.
• Effective product shooting: neutral background + natural light, focus on the logo, details and zippers, and highlight vintage features or rare colors.
• Product storytelling: even if TNF is a well-known brand, add details: “Denali 2000's model, boxy cut, perfect streetwear layering” → this type of description reassures and gives perceived value.
• Price management: standard models → fast margin, affordable price; premium → justifies a higher price with photos and detailed descriptions.

FAQ – Reselling The North Face fleeces

How to recognize an authentic TNF fleece?

Check the inside labels, the quality of the embroidery, and the evenness of the stitching. Fakes often have font or logo placement errors.

What margin can we expect?

Standard: €20 to €35 each on average.
Premium / rare: up to €70 and more depending on condition and size.
In a box, the unit cost is lower → more comfortable margins.

Should they be sold in bulk or individually?

Both work. Selling individually maximizes margin, while selling in bulk speeds up inventory turnover.

When is the best time to sell?

From early fall to the depths of winter. But vintage streetwear pieces can sell out all year round.
