SKIMS x The North Face: Ski-Like Fashion, But Not Slopes-Ready (Pretty Dangerous)

Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS has teamed up with The North Face for a limited-edition winterwear collaboration that’s making waves—but not necessarily on the slopes. Photographed by Donna Trope, the campaign features Kardashian herself modeling sleek, neutral-toned pieces designed more for Instagram than alpine emergencies.

The collection includes zip-up tops, form-fitting bodysuits, goggles, gloves, beanies, and high-shine puffer jackets, all in SKIMS’ signature muted palette. While these pieces bring undeniable style, their neutral tones raise safety concerns for actual skiing or outdoor use. Bright colors and reflective details are essential for visibility in snowy conditions, particularly in emergencies, and this collection doesn’t prioritize practicality in that regard.

Instead, the pieces seem better suited for après-ski lounging or, more realistically, a quick grocery store run or Instagram photo-op. Starting at $60 and reaching up to $1,200, the collection offers luxe polyester winterwear, that lean heavily on aesthetic appeal rather than performance functionality.

This partnership follows SKIMS’ high-profile collaborations with brands like Dolce & Gabbana and Swarovski, marking another fashion-forward moment for the label. But for those hitting the slopes, stick to gear designed with safety and visibility in mind. For everyone else, the SKIMS x The North Face drop—available December 10th on Skims.com and select retail locations—might just be your next cozy, camera-ready outfit. Just don’t mistake it for mountain-ready gear.
