The Supreme x The North Face 2011 capsule collection will have men looking ferocious this winter season. Comprised of the Nuptse Down Jacket and Rolling Thunder Bag, the collection boasts a classic cheetah print that is more often associated with women's fashion. Yet here, this animal print dominates both the bubble jacket and the carry-on baggage, giving it new meaning in menswear.
Both items in the Supreme x The North Face 2011 capsule collection will be available in three colorways: gray, green and yellow. Available only in New York, Los Angeles and London, this collection will be coveted by many around the world. It may even warrant a trip for loved ones who are looking for that perfect Christmas gift for the special men in their lives.
