Durable Water Resistant Finish
Durable Water Resistant (DWR) finishes on fabrics and zippers give long life to waterproof technologies. The addition of an enhanced hydrophobic treatment enables the DWR to adhere to materials for an extremely extended lifetime. Like water off a ducks back!
Goose Down
Meeting the performance needs of all types of outdoor enthusiasts, The North Face offers the highest quality goose down for optimal performance and warmth. Their down is rigorously cleaned and tested to ensure that only the best down is used. By using a naturally high lofting, light and resilient insulator down items are lightweight, highly compressible and incredibly warm.
The North Face Outerwear
Designed in conjunction with TNF`s team of elite outdoor athletes, The North Face clothing has evolved over three decades of expedition testing and materials engineering. Every piece is designed to provide maximum protection at a minimum weight. Fabrics, components and construction techniques are selected and tested for strength, performance and durability. The result is a line of technical clothing that athletes know they can depend on, no matter how extreme the weather or difficult the task.
Zip In Feature
The TNF zip-in system is featured on many of their shell jackets. Layering (by adding or removing garments to control temperature) is the most effective way to stay comfortable in range of weather conditions and activities. Fast and easy layering is taken to new levels with their zip-in technology. Many of their jackets and vests zip into each other to create a one-piece insulated outer layer. Zip a fleece or insulated jacket into one of their shells to create a one-piece insulated outer layer. You pick the pieces to fit the conditions. Compatible zipper lengths match up the outer shell with the insulating layer. Jacket cuffs are secured together with a loop and snap closure system to prevent shifting and twisting.
