Desiree Melancon
This goggle design was inspired through experimentation and mixed media. I’m interested in how different mediums communicate, similar to how plastic reacts on snow while going down a mountain. This goggle is a combination of illustration and analog film: a mix of something very intentional, and one happenstance.

Alek Øestreng
Taking inspiration from the notebook Alek has in his everyday-carry, this design carries a sense of youthful spontaneity. Don’t get stuck in front of the T.V. - you never know what you might find when you take the long way home.

Early on, I was inspired by how each goggle goes from concept to reality through a series of hand-drawn blueprints. This strap gives a nod to the engineers. I’ve been working a bunch on product development so it was natural for me to have this goggle showcase that side of my interests.

Angel Collinson
Similar to how choosing your line down the mountain is as much about feel as it is planning, I wanted this design to have a certain feeling to it. I have been interested in more mystical symbolism lately, and wanted to combine that with some really wearable earth tones.

This year we are proud to announce a collaboration with the one-and-only Aaron Draplin. Utilizing his iconic design style, Aaron helped us create two goggles that ring true to the DDC aesthetic. He’s traveled the world telling his full-throated story, with over 400 speaking fiascoes under his belt and counting! He co-created Field Notes with his older brother Jim Coudal, and their memo books are sold in over 2,500 stores worldwide, with limited-edition special editions shipped quarterly to a booming subscriber list. His first book titled Pretty Much Everything came out on May 17, 2016 on Abrams Books, which incredibly, is in its eighth printing. His roster of DDC Merch is up to 240 products and growing! You’ll see those goodies at DDC merch tables from coast to coast or in his online shop. He prides himself on a high level of craftsmanship and quality that keeps him up late into the wet Portland night. http://draplin.com http://fieldnotesbrand.com http://ddcbook.com

For the third year running, Smith and The North Face bring you a collection of products inspired by classic TNF colors and materials. For the design of this year’s collection, we focused on the retro styling of The North Face’s Nuptse jackets. We integrated the baffle design detail across the Squad MAG™, I/O MAG™, and Code helmet, which comes with a custom helmet bag. Take this iconic style packed with innovation on your next winter excursion.

NUPTSE HELMET BAG
When duct tape and faded fabrics tell a story about your battles with mother nature—we want to be there to hear all about it. Especially when its with your friends on the mountain. We teamed up with our friends in Portland Oregon at Kinco gloves to create a custom mitt and matching Maze helmet. They know, just like we do, that at the bottom of the thrill lies innovation, passion and hard work. Just like every day you’re on the mountain.
