The North Face "Free Run" worn by three runners.

The North Face's "Freerun" series is highly functional for both trail and road running, and has a design that looks good in town as well. Three runners with rich personalities took to the outdoors to try on such a versatile collection. We asked them to experience the true value of the collection through a trail run in Hakone.

Members with rich personalities are gathered.

First, let me introduce the members. The three runners wearing The North Face's "Free Run" were as follows. They are runners from different backgrounds and styles.

Model Ms. Yamada started trail running this year. Although she is still new to trail running, she says she is hooked on the "exhilaration of running through ups and downs," which is different from running on the road.

Currently a student at Bunka Fashion College, Okajima-san's love of mountaineering led him to start trail running about a year and a half ago. He has participated in events in Ome, Nikko, and Hakuba, and has a wealth of real-world experience.

This is artist Nanohana's second trail run. She has run mainly on the road, but the sensation of running on the trail while feeling the changes in her feet and the scenery with her whole body is new and fascinating.
