We are very pleased to announce that The North Face® will be partnering with the UTi Rhodes Run as our Official Apparel Sponsor from 2014.
The sombre cold northern slopes of the Kloppershoek kloof and Hooggenoeg Ridge, always a time for reflection before and after climbing Mavis Bank and skirting Ben MacDhui, are reminiscent of the idea that inspired The North Face®, the unforgiving side of a mountain.
James Hallett, Marketing Manager, The North Face South Africa “As a brand rooted in the outdoors, our passion lies not only with the production of the highest quality products, but also with the spirit of those who continue to explore their own limits. Our decision to partner with the iconic UTi Rhodes Run provides us with a unique opportunity to associate our brand with the men and women who, year upon year, pit themselves against the challenges of mother nature in one of the most beautiful parts of South Africa, a true reflection of the Never Stop Exploring philosophy at our core.”
