Snap review, you may see shades of Nigel Cabourn here which may be so, Alistair did a year placement with NC. Bunch of cool touches as well though. Alistair said via email; "I understand that the clothing is not really vintage 'repro', but hopefully it's an interpretation that pays homage to the original gear." Good stuff. A bit more at his site, including a woodsy lookbook video.
The pacific crest collection is a celebration of the primitive outdoor gear and customized sportswear that helped thru-hikers on the trail in those early years of adventure & discovery... The result is a collection of garments that mix old with new, natural fabrics and vintage inspired finishes with small references to those early designs by [then] young outdoor companies such as Gerry, The North Face, REI, Sierra Designs and Patagonia.
