01Overview
About the The North Face affiliate program
The North Face is unusual in serving two entirely separate audiences from one catalogue: technical mountain users who buy for performance, and a large streetwear audience who buy the Nuptse and Denali as fashion items. Both convert, and a creator can work either side.

Demand is strongly seasonal and concentrated in autumn and winter, when insulated outerwear sells. Content published just ahead of the first cold weather consistently outperforms the same content posted mid-season.
The North Face draws the widest split between technical and fashion buyers of any program in the LinkApprove network, and creators who publish outerwear content ahead of the first cold snap outperform those who wait for the season to start.

Sports & outdoors
How The North Face compares in its category
Sports and outdoors carries the highest average order values of any vertical on LinkApprove, because technical gear is expensive and buyers replace it rarely but decisively. Content that demonstrates gear in real conditions substantially outperforms studio product content here, and demand is sharply seasonal in both directions, camping peaks in spring, insulation in autumn.
