It's no secret that Kim Kardashian loves to ski. We've all seen her SKI SZN edit of  ripping groomers, and there's endless Reddit threads of folks debating her form. Turns out her influence goes beyond a few internet clips, as her lifestyle brand Skims known for its shapewear is launching a new skiwear collab line with The North Face that drops December 10th.

The collab line takes a few classic pieces from The North Face, including the Nuptse puffy (or "puffer" as the fashion world likes to say) jacket, Denali fleece jacket and pants, and DotKnit baselayers, all reimagined in the form-fitting style of Skims. That means a various monochrome color palettes and a unique fit. There's even a body-hugging one-piece lycra bodysuit that's part of the line. 

From a tech standpoint, The North Face says they are partnering with Skims to try out some new fabrics they have in the works for future products, including the Lycra Adaptiv material found in the bodysuit. The idea of re-fitting the Nuptse jacket in the line came from Kardashian's own closet. Turns out she's already been a TNF fan for awhile. 

For keen eyes, you'll even recognize pro skier and fashionista Kellyn Wilson (co-author of the fashion-focused TOGS substack with Hadley Hammer) in the launch video and marketing photos.
