Ahh, the end of summer always comes so quickly. One minute you’re towelling off with a beer in a hammock, the next it’s “pass the matches” and “where is my bloody fleece?”


At We Are Explorers we’re not afraid of a bit of cold, in fact, it’s possible we like it more. We live for the chilly nights ’round the campfire and snuggling into our sleeping bags after a huge day. That’s why we’re psyched to partner with The North Face to release their fluff-tastic Campshire Fleece Collection.

The Campshire Fleeces are all about comfort. They’ve got a relaxed fit and 300-weight fleece, meaning they’re about as big, lofty and warm as they come. There’s also a ‘kangaroo pocket’ for your hands (or someone else’s), elbow patches for that scruffy professor vibe and ‘sherpa fleece’.

Sherpa fleece is fluffy like a sheep on one side and tightly knit on the other to help layering and increase wind resistance. We’re pretty confident that these will be the ultimate thing to slip into after a send session at your local crag or a cheeky winter dip. The Campshire Pullover Hoodie comes in at $220 while the Campshire Full-Zip is $180.
