Pokémon x The North Face Create Pokéball Jackets for This "Young Explorers" Capsule

Readers with a keen memory might remember when Gucci x The North Face entered the augmented reality space in 2020 as they sold their items as avatar accessories. Now two years later, The North Face x Pokémon will reconnect to produce a new physical capsule entitled "Young Explorers".

The collection arrives as part of Goldwin's PLAY EARTH PARK concept space, a location in Tokyo that provides children with outdoor activities, workshops and pop-ups.

The capsule itself features jackets and safari hats, with both bearing graphics of the famous Pokémon Pikachu. Leading the collection, we see a duo of windbreakers, with each sporting a frontal-zip construction as well as zip pockets. Available in both black and yellow hues, these windbreakers are surely going to be a hit amongst any "Young Explorers".

The most interesting part of the collection, however, is the four different Pokéball shaped pouches. These pouches are ideal for storing the windbreaker jacket or small goods, and are guaranteed to have many adults wishing this wasn't just a junior-sized line.
