THE NORTH FACE nails
History:
The North Face brand was established in 1966[3] in San Francisco, when Douglas Tompkins and Kenneth "Hap" Klopp created an equipment retail store that eventually acquired the name The North Face.[3] This name was chosen because the north face of a mountain in the northern hemisphere is generally the most difficult face to climb.[3] By the 1980s, ski wear was added to the line of products, and eventually camping equipment was added as well. The North Face is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the VF Corporation.

1908–1941: Early days
In his late 30s, Marquis Mills Converse, who was previously a
respected manager at a footwear manufacturing firm, opened the Converse
Rubber Shoe Company (unrelated to the Boston Rubber Shoe Company founded
by fourth cousin Elisha Converse)
in Malden, Massachusetts in February 1908. The company was a rubber
shoe manufacturer, providing winterized rubber soled footwear for men,
women, and children. By 1910, Converse was producing 4,000 shoes daily,
but it was not until 1915 that the company began manufacturing athletic
shoes for tennis.
The company's main turning point came in 1917 when the Converse
All-Star basketball shoe was introduced. Then in 1921, a basketball
player named Charles H. "Chuck" Taylor
walked into Converse complaining of sore feet. Converse gave him a job.
He worked as a salesman and ambassador, promoting the shoes around the
United States, and in 1923 his signature was added to the All Star
patch. He continued this work until shortly before his death in 1969.
Converse also customized shoes for the New York Renaissance (the "Rens"), the first all-African American professional basketball team.
