Performance: Tested in the Canadian Rockies for glacial travel and alpine objectives; waterproof with North Face's Futurelight nanospun membrane allowing breathability without compromising waterproofing, tape-sealed seams, and a durable water repellency coating.
Design: Includes massive pit zips for airflow, YKK Aqua guard waterproof zips, stitch-free design on shoulder tops to prevent backpack pressure points or rubbing, and made of 100% recycled 70 denier nylon for abrasion resistance.
Hood & Pockets: Hood is oversized and helmet-compatible but can be too big without a helmet; pockets are high and harness-compatible, and there are cinches for adjusting the hood and jacket hem, though they're oddly located inside the jacket.
Weight & Durability: Weighs around 600 grams for a large size, making it on the heavier side for lightweight hard shells but offers more protection during rough alpine conditions.
Overall: A reliable jacket for extreme conditions, suitable for diverse activities from alpine climbs to ski touring due to its durability, breathability, and waterproofing; also commended for its aesthetic appeal.
