Renowned climbers, and The North FaceŽ athletes, Eneko and Iker Pou, will give a free in-store presentation on Saturday, 29 March at the brand’s new retail store in Barcelona, located at Gran Vîa de les Corts Catalanes, 636.
The Pou brothers will direct their exciting multimedia presentation at youth, encouraging young people to explore and seek adventure in the outdoors.
