LOST X THE NORTH FACE
The North Face has collaborated with LOST to create a brand new zine called WILD.

WILD is a zine about stories of exploration. Every issue features explorers who venture into the unknown, pushed by their insatiable hunger and curiosity to discover new worlds. WILD believes it is only through exploration that we can discover who we really are.

The first issue is 23cm x 16.2cm, 144 pages thick, bilingual in English and Chinese, and features personal stories from five very different explorers.

WILD#1: MADNESS
For the first issue, we ask, what is madness? Why are these explorers doing these seemingly crazy things? Are they really mad or do they actually know what they are doing? Could madness possibly push us forward? Through conversations with five very different explorers, we uncover radical and unconventional ways of looking at exploration, which to most people, might seem a little nuts.

To let our readers feel what it’s like to be mad, the first issue is designed in such a way where the voices of madness are upside down on every page, juxtaposed against the thoughts of regular people. This forces the reader to turn the zine upside down in order to read it, putting the reader out of his or her comfort zone to look at things differently, which is exactly what it feels like to explore the unknown.

Featured stories:
Imagine trying to compose the perfect shot on a DSLR while dangling from a rope 20,000 feet above the ground. Jimmy Chin shares what it’s like to shoot death-defying climbs while hanging off the edge.

Rory Bosio, a part-time nurse, runs a hundred miles in the mountains for fun. How on earth does she feel so joyful running such long distances?

If you fall, you die. Alex Honnold tells us what it’s like to push the limits of the most dangerous form of climbing, free soloing, a type of climbing performed without a rope, or a partner or any gear.

Why would anyone give up everything to roam the world aimlessly, with no thought of returning? Frederic Scheffer tells us about the ultimate journey on his Soviet sidecar motorcycle, and why he won’t be stopping soon.

Can stars be chased? Where would you even start? Meet Zhang Bo, a person who never gets tired from risking everything to search for meteorites around the world.

LOST X THE NORTH FACE
The North Face LOST合作创立的全新刊物,名为WILD

WILD是一本讲述探索故事的刊物。每一期收录了不同的探索者故事,他们敢于走进未知,对发现新世界充满无尽的渴求和好奇。WILD相信只有透过探索,人们才能找到真正的自己。

第一期开本为23cm x 16.2cm,共144页,中英双语,收录了五个完全不同的探索者故事。

WILD#1:疯狂
在第一期,我们发问,何为疯狂?为什么这些探索者们会做这些看似疯狂的事情?他们是真的疯了,还是他们其实清楚自己正在做的一切?疯狂有可能推动我们前进吗?通过对话五位完全不同的探索者,我们揭示了一些激进和叛逆的探索观点;而对大多数人来说,这些观点可能会有些发疯。

为了让读者感受什么是疯狂,第一期的设计将疯狂的声音倒置在每一页上呈现,与普通人的思想并置对比。这促使读者将刊物上下调转来阅读,脱离他/她的舒适区,以不同的方式看待事物,正如探索未知的感觉。

WILD#1 故事:
边缘拍摄 / 一百英里的喜悦 /  万无一失 / 永恒之路 / 追星星的人 / 为疯狂制造 / 疯狂还是进取?

谁会放弃一切不带目的地漫游世界,不想回来?Frederic Scheffer 讲述他在苏联制造的跨斗摩托车上的终极之旅,以及为什么还不愿停下来的原因。
