To keep severe cold at bay without adding awkward weight, The North Face Extreme Pile 2 Full Zip Jacket in Caraway Seed relies on a high pile thermal fleece shell engineered for heavy insulation. Constructed from dense recycled polyester fibres that trap body heat close to your core, this heavy duty fleece jacket eliminates the problem of shivering during frozen winter outings and outdoor travel. Finished with a protective stand collar, full length front zip, and durable woven overlays on high stress areas, it provides reliable warmth and breathability whether worn on its own or beneath a heavy waterproof coat.
