The North Face Wins Magazine Award

The North Face has won an award from Men's Fitness Magazine in the Outdoor Wear category

The North Face has won a prestigious award - note that awards are always 'prestigious' here in meeja land - from the men's fitness magazine, erm, Men's Fitness.

The company won the Men's Fitness magazine ACTIVE AWARD 2003 for the category OUTDOOR WEAR. The awards are apparently intended to recognise the brands which have done most to 'support the training needs' of Men's Fitness readers and TNF triumphed through a mix of 'brand heritage, style and innovation'.

Peter Muir, the magazine's editor congratulated The North Face for producing "clothes that not only work well, but manage to look great". The other outdoor brand recognised by the magazine was Salomon. So well done to both of them.

Incidentally you can find out more Men's Fitness stuff on their web page. And more about The North Face on their web page.

What a load of balls!

I am sorry but what do Men's Fitness know about 'Outdoor Wear'?

IMO, North Face are the high street acceptable face of 'Outdoor Wear' for the masses.

Probably not alot but North face are not going to complain are they?

I love walking round Keswick looking at all the pristine boots that will never leave tarmack. I just wonder what they are going to do with their very expensive purchaces when their holiday is over.

Well I use my Scarpa boots for gardening in. My Berghaus fleece for wandering around town in. And my karrimor goretex jacket never leaves the cupboard under the stairs.

Ironically, when I do head for the hills in my trainers, I always take my North Face Trail Vest windproof gilet which has proved to be the singlemost useful peice of kit after my Walsh trainers.
