The North Face has released its first product featuring a fur-trimmed hood using Brewed Protein™ fiber. The brand launched the “(ICONS) COLLECTION”, a project that updates five iconic products from its over 50-year history by featuring Brewed Protein™ fiber. Among these, the Orbit McMurdo Parka, a hooded down jacket, was launched as the first product to use Brewed Protein™ fiber in the fur trim of a hood. Spiber has been working on the development of materials that mimic long-pile fur, and the fabric used in this product was realized through joint development by three companies: Goldwin, Spiber, and Okada Orimono, which has built a global reputation for the development and production of high-quality eco-fur. Moving forward, Spiber will continue to develop and produce materials and fabrics such as eco-fur, boa, and fleece using Brewed Protein™ fiber, in collaboration with our partners.
