  • Fucking North Face - bought some fancy outdoors shoes before lockdown. Pandemic came so no outdoorsing. Took them out the box to wear to a wedding and the fucking sole fell off.

    Cue North Face saying it’s not their problem and the sole needed to fall off sooner to make it a warranty option.

    Serves me right for buying bam brands.

    Avoid NORTH FACE if you want walking equipment that works for walking.

  • I remember when The North Face made good quality kit..

    See also Rab, I still have a down vest from about 20 years ago.

  • It’s always the same. Start small - quality and performance is the driver. You are passionate about your product.

    Get big and profitable then the accountants take over the numbers and quality slowly erodes.
