      The North Face: Mountain Athletics - Kit DesLauriers - VIDEO

      The North Face has developed a new line of clothing specifically designed for training in order to achieve your fitness objectives. With this they have pared a custom on-line training program specific to your individual needs and sport. For most of you reading this that would be skiing or ski mountaineering. Watch the video below that describes how Kit DesLauriers, renowned ski mountaineer views her training regiment and then read our North Face Mountain Athletics review to see what we think of this new direction in technical-training apparel.


      What is Mountain Athletics?

      The Mountain Athletics Collection and Training Program prepares athletes for the pursuit and achievement of any training goal so that they can make the most of their time outdoors. Watch the video below to see what we mean:

       


      Mountain Athletics challenges athletes to view training from a new perspective. It’s much more than training for a game. Pushing limits successfully in outdoor pursuits is all about the right gear and the right preparation. Mountain Athletics provides the opportunity to embark on a unique journey—the dedication, thrill and reward of working out to improve physical and mental readiness so that one can enjoy the outdoor experience as much as possible.  


      What The North Face Offers

      Mountain Athletics includes technical-training apparel, footwear, online training guides and in-store training classes. 

      The new Mountain Athletics Collection represents the next evolution of technical-training apparel and footwear. The demands of outdoor athlete training are extraordinarily tough on gear and require a level of performance and durability  that traditional training gear doesn’t offer.   

      The Mountain Athletics Collection is the only product specifically designed for the rigours of outdoor-athlete training. Technology driven and purposefully built, Mountain Athletics apparel utilizes FlashDry™ technology and proprietary, active-stretch fabrications to provide unmatched durability, range of motion and performance  to athletes training to push their limits in their  outdoor sports.
