Global Climbing Day gives everyone a reason to call themselves a climber.
Whether you are a novice or an expert, join The North Face and our partners on Global Climbing Day to celebrate the rich culture and welcoming community of climbing.
Walls are meant for climbing.
Walls are everywhere. What they mean is up to you.
We’ve spent over 50 years searching for walls to climb because to us, they offer challenge and opportunity. They ignite curiosity. Climbing them teaches us to trust, work together and find meaning in hardship.
August 20th is Global Climbing Day—a worldwide celebration of the climbing community and the opportunities to be found in every obstacle.
Join us on 20th August and we’ll climb them together.

When every wall is an opportunity, days that start at the crag can end up anywhere. Our climb collection pairs wall-ready durability and range of motion with the comfort and versatility you need during downtime.
