The North Face has revealed its second collaboration with world-renowned artist and designer KAWS. While the first collection was aimed at delivering added flair for the slopes, introducing colorful and reflective pieces, the upcoming series focuses on high-altitude performance, offering up a range of greyscale pieces centered around TNF’s Expedition System.
Launched in 1990, Expedition System was the most technically-advanced integrated clothing system at the time, built for traversing the planet’s coldest regions from the Himalayas to Antarctica. Relentlessly tested by North Face athletes, silhouettes from the program went on to launch many of TNF’s most iconic styles including the ‘95 Nuptse Jacket, Denali Mountain Jackets, and ‘94 Himalayan Parka, which are included in the collaboration dressed in KAWS motifs and abstract camo prints.
Both men’s and women’s styles are available as well as unisex accessories including rounded base camp duffels featuring backpack straps, down feather-filled Nuptse mitts, and co-branded beanies. Logo-embroidered tees and cuffed sweatpants arrive as year-round pieces and rounding out the joint series are ThermoBall™ Traction V Mules featuring padded uppers and collapsible heels.
This season’s North Face XX KAWS collection will be available online, via select TNF locations worldwide, and at select retailers beginning October 25. Prices range from $55 to $550 USD.

Nike continues to expand its Dunk Low colorways. Earlier this year, the “Teddy Bear”-themed shoe surfaced, garnering much attention for its cozy brown color scheme. Earlier this month, the Dunk Low was revealed in a new “Pink Teddy Bear” colorway, reminiscent of the furry “Three Bears” pack released in 2006.
Now, an official look at the brown “Teddy Bear” colorway for the Nike Dunk Low has surfaced. The new shoe appears to feature a mix of materials that dress the makeup of the shoe, blending a mix of soft materials like suede and felt in various shades of brown for the upper. The shoe features an off-white Swoosh accent as well as a Nike tag with thematic stitching that hangs on the lateral Swoosh. The outline of the head of the teddy bear is seen on the medial portion of the heel and the laces land with blue and brown speckles. The shoe sits atop a semi-translucent gum-brown outsole that rounds out the design of the shoe.
Look out for the Nike Dunk Low “Teddy Bear” released in the coming months in select retailers and on Nike for $120 USD.

For the latest series of Nike Dunk Low’s, the Swoosh recently partnered up with the US’ Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) on a number of limited releases, including a special North Carolina A&T colorway. Nike has followed up with an eye-catching Tennessee State University iteration that will have current and former students screaming their tiger pride.
The sneaker flaunts a smooth black leather base, with crimson and royal hues to complement the quarter, mudguard and heel. Additional highlights include neutral white along the Swoosh and laces, as well as a mustard tongue and heel tab with TSU’s insignia on the former and the school’s founding year on the latter.
The Nike Dunk Low “TSU” will also feature the school’s mantras, “Think Work Serve” and “TIGER PRIDE”, on the insole and come equipped with alternate tiger stripe laces. Expect the shoe to drop in the coming months for $120 USD on Nike.
