The North Face

[deady]

there are no "close by" outlets. you should be able to find something on google, but the last time i looked there werent any even relatively close. There used to be one at the North Georgie premium outlets, but it's been closed for some time.

If you're wanting REAL outdoor gear, checkout Mountain Hardware, Patagonia, or Arcteryx.

Northface ftmfl, and i own several of their products, from summit series to denali's, the quality has drastically lessened as of late, probably due to everybody and their little siblings sporting the stuff.

i'm a big fan of Marmot and Patagonia but it's soooo expensive! eBay or the closeout racks at REI FTW

there are no outlets close by. As far as outdoor gear and outdoor wear goes, the north face is sommewhere in the middle. Their higher end stuff is still as good as the best, but the cheaper stuff is overpriced and cheaply made. I have some of the flight series and summit series stuff, and the quality is pretty good. It is just as good as my Marmot stuff, and not quite as good as my Arc'teryx stuff. I personally like TNF stuff better than patagonia. As far as gear (tents and sleeping bags) TNF is just as good as anything I have owned. I own a TNF tent, a Sierra Design tent, and my dad owns a Marmot tent. Quailty wise, they are all pretty equal. As far as backpacks, I would go with something other than TNF. Sleeping bags are all pretty much the same.
