Is North Face Worth Reselling? Model, Condition & Code Evidence

Yes, for the right models. In 491 eBay sales of used North Face from Jul 6 to Oct 3, 2026, 1996 Retro Nuptse jackets sold for a median of $130, Mountain Jackets and Base Camp duffels $80, and Denali fleeces $35. Collaborations sit far above that: Supreme x The North Face jackets sold for $332 and Gucci pieces for $841.

What used North Face sold for

eBay sold listings, Jul 6 to Oct 3, 2026, n=491. Pre-owned adult pieces only, item price before shipping. “Middle half” is the 25th to 75th percentile: half of all sales landed in that range. Each search returns the most recent sales first, so popular pieces like the Nuptse cover the last few weeks and rarer ones the whole stretch. Best-offer sales are left out, because eBay doesn’t show the accepted price, and so are new-with-tags pieces, lots and kids’ sizes. How we count.

What people checked in Underpriced

The North Face people checked in Underpriced had a median tag of $10 and sold for about $24 when matching sales turned up. About half were rated worth buying at their price. A Nuptse or a collaboration jacket on the rack is the find worth stopping for.

Which North Face pieces to pick up

The 1996 Retro Nuptse. At a $130 median, it’s the North Face piece most worth looking for. Clean, odor-free jackets with working zippers and no leaking down sell at the top of the $95 to $169 range.

Collaborations, with care. Supreme x The North Face jackets sold for a median of $332, and Gucci x The North Face for $841, though Gucci sold only 8 times in three months. Both are heavily faked, so price them only after the checks below, and treat a bargain price as a warning sign.

Mountain Jackets and Base Camp duffels. Both sold for $80. The duffels are easy to judge in a store: check the zipper, straps and the bottom panel for wear.

Denali fleeces and backpacks are small money. A Denali sold for $35, a Borealis backpack for $37 and a Jester for $28. They work at a low thrift price and in bundles.

Use the style number to find the model

Current North Face tags carry a style code that usually starts with NF0A or NF00, like NF0A3C8D for the Men’s 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket. Our North Face style number lookup pulls the base code out of the tag line so you can search the right model.

1. Photograph the whole tag line, not just the last few characters.
2. Search the code on The North Face’s site and compare the photos with your piece.
3. Check the details: pockets, logo, zippers, materials and measurements.
4. Search sold listings for the same model, size, color and condition.

If the tag and the jacket disagree, leave the model name out of your listing.

Authentication is a separate step

A matching code, tag, logo or zipper doesn’t prove a piece is real, because all of them can be copied. For everyday pieces, photograph every tag, the front and back, logo, zipper pulls, seams and pockets, and compare them with official product photos. For Supreme, Gucci and other high-value collaborations, use a specialist authentication service before you buy or list. If you can’t confirm it, describe only what you can see and lower your price.

Where to find it

Thrift stores in cold-weather areas see the most North Face outerwear. Outlet clearance and end-of-season sales can work for new stock, though new pieces aren’t part of the sold table above. Online, search for misspellings like “Northface” and broad titles like “black puffer jacket” to find pieces other buyers miss.
