THE NORTH FACE / UPCYCLE SHOEBOX
↳ UPCYCLE COLLECTION
THE NORTH FACEとは2016年ごろから店舗で余ったシューズボックスを通じ、様々な形でタイアップしてきました。そしてついにその集大成とも言えるシューズボックスが完成しました。
このシューズボックスは箱の裏に印刷されたアイテムをミシン目に合わせてちぎり、ボンドで接着すれば4つのアイテムを作ることができます。
第一弾としてノースの展開するVerocityシリーズの3バリエーションにこの箱が適応されており、旅をテーマに一つの箱から4アイテムが作れます。
今年もまだコロナが抜けない状況ですが、より多くの人に次の旅に思いを馳せながら作っていただけたらと願っています。
これはキャンペーンではなく、永続的な試みです。また今後も数あるシューズボックスをアップデートして行く予定ですので今後もご注目ください。
We have been tied up with THE NORTH FACE in various ways through the surplus shoe boxes in their stores since around 2016. Now, we have finally produced a shoe box that is the culmination of our efforts.
This shoe box can be made into four items by tearing the items printed on the back of the box according to the perforations and gluing them together with a bond.
As the first release, the box has been applied to three variations of North's Verocity series, and four items can be made from one box with a travel theme.
Although we are still in the midst of Corona this year, we hope that more and more people will make these items while thinking about their next trip.
This is not a campaign, but a permanent initiative. We will be updating many of the shoe boxes in the future, so please stay tuned.
2022
There were many challenges as it was a special environment, an airport.
New challenges awaited me as well.
It was a project taking about a year,
but as an airport enthusiast, I enjoyed it immensely.
Please stop by during your trip.
