{"product_id":"balle-de-80-polaires-the-north-face","title":"Bale of 80 The North Face Fleeces","description":"\u003cp\u003eEighty The North Face fleeces in a single bale. One brand, but not one single type of fleece: what sets the price of a piece here is the model — and they do not resell at the same level, or to the same buyer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat the bale holds\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou will find the \u003cstrong\u003eDenali\u003c\/strong\u003e, the brand's most recognisable piece: heavy fleece, nylon overlays at the shoulders and elbows, full zip and chest pocket. Alongside it, \u003cstrong\u003eTKA and Glacier fleeces\u003c\/strong\u003e — full-zip, quarter-zip or high-collar — which make up the bulk of a bale; \u003cstrong\u003esherpa and high-pile models\u003c\/strong\u003e, long-napped and instantly readable in a photo; and \u003cstrong\u003ebonded pieces\u003c\/strong\u003e combining fleece with windproof nylon panels. Colours run from plain black to the colour-blocking of the older collections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe labels that lift the price\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn a The North Face fleece, the inner label sets the price. \u003cstrong\u003ePolartec\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eTKA 100\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eTKA Glacier\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eWindWall\u003c\/strong\u003e are not decorative markings: at equal condition and equal age, a piece carrying one of them resells above a logo-only fleece with no technical reference. The \u003cstrong\u003eDenali\u003c\/strong\u003e, built on heavy Polartec, is the model that concentrates the most value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere the resale value sits\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDenali pieces sit at the top of the range: they sell one at a time, to buyers who know the model and can tell a Denali from any zipped fleece, and their price depends as much on age and colourway as on condition. TKA and Glacier are the useful entry level: fast turnover, accessible price, the volume that keeps a shop moving. Sherpa and high-pile models belong to the fashion market rather than the outdoor one, and reach a younger buyer, often willing to pay for the look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eA long selling season\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFleece follows the warm-knit cycle: demand picks up in late August, peaks from October to December and holds through February. The raw material therefore arrives several months ahead of the season it sells in, at a point where the category is still uncrowded. The North Face adds a permanent floor to that cycle: the brand holds its value second-hand even outside the cold months, which lowers the risk of dead stock compared with a strictly seasonal category.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCuts are predominantly men's and sizes come assorted as received. Sizing is American: a piece marked L often runs larger than its European equivalent, and the gap widens with the age of the model.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"TAGZ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55984254124376,"sku":"GR-TNF-FLEECE","price":1040.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0895\/8921\/9672\/files\/BALLE_TAGZ_TNF_FLEECES.webp?v=1785245670","url":"https:\/\/tagz.now\/en\/products\/clothing-bale-80-the-north-face-fleeces","provider":"TAGZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
