Product Information

Full details

The North Face Glacier Fleece Zip-Up Jacket is a versatile mid-layer designed for adult hikers and casual users seeking reliable warmth and moisture-wicking comfort. Its primary benefit lies in its breathable polyester construction, which excels at regulating body temperature during active outdoor pursuits, though it should be paired with a shell jacket as it is not waterproof on its own.
