The North Face Men's Vortex Triclimate Jacket

The North Face Men's Vortex Triclimate Jacket

Your quiver of skis might include powder skis, hardpack carving skis, all-mountain mid-wide skis and backcountry twin-tips, but thankfully you only need one jacket for every day of ski season: The North Face Men's Vortex Triclimate Jacket. It's a durable, waterproof and breathable shell jacket with a zip-out insulating liner that you can wear alone on the bluebird powder days. Between all three configurations, you have enough weather protection options to ski, trek or snowboard right into the sun drenched jeans-and-tee days of late spring and summer. The North Face Men's Vortex Triclimate Jacket is loaded with many of the same features found on expensive ski jackets and alpine outerwear, but the price remains affordable and the exterior styling is classic and traditional--not spendy-trendy. Internal features include a goggle pocket, media security pocket (for phone, two-way radio or music player) and an adjustable hem with Pant-a-locks to connect your ski pants to your jacket for optimal spindrift protection. On the outside you'll find core zip-vents for cooling, a wrist accessory pocket with goggle cloth, and a removable hood. If you wear the insulating liner as a jacket, you'll find that it has fewer pockets and features than the outer jacket shell, although the enhanced articulation through the elbows will appeal to any skier who pounds moguls or spends most of their time doing tricks on twin-tips in the terrain park.

Great triclimate jacket
My ski trip isn't until next week but I've already started wearing the inside jacket outside in Texas since it's not too cold nor too hot outside (high 30s low 40s). It's very comfortable to wear and I can directly tell that it's very durable. An abundant amount of pockets both interior and exterior. Only thing is, my arms are a little shorter than normal so a medium fits my waist, shoulders, and upper body but my arms are a little too short for the medium. I'm okay though since running a little big on the jacket won't be bad for the ski trip. I'd rather have that than be uncomfortable in a smaller jacket.

Great jacket
The Service is great, the employees are very willing to help out. Jacket is very nice, I got one for my boyfriend for Christmas and he LOVES it! North Face is a great brand for tall guys- he's 6'3'' and thin and a large fits great- even the sleeves are long enough! The fleece is great by itself or the shell is nice as a rain jacket but he's wearing both layers together now that it's so cold. Great buy!!

Great Jacket
The jacket is perfect and definitely for cold weather. It's not fluffy as most of the jackets I've had. The jacket keeps you warm but not sweating. I love it so much and I am going to buy another for my dad.
