FAQs

What is WindWall™ technology?

WindWall™ is a proprietary fabric technology used by The North Face that significantly reduces wind permeability while maintaining a good level of breathability. It helps block the effects of wind chill.

Can I wear this jacket in heavy rain?

The jacket has a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, which means it can shed light rain and snow. However, it is not waterproof and is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy precipitation.

How do I adjust the hood?

The hood is adjustable via drawcords, allowing you to cinch it down for a snug fit, especially when wearing a helmet. Refer to the garment's internal tags for specific adjustment points.

What is FlashDry-Pro™?

FlashDry-Pro™ is a technology integrated into the fabric that helps to wick moisture away from the skin, enhancing dryness and comfort during physical activity.

Is this jacket insulated?

No, the Summit Off Width Jacket is an uninsulated shell jacket. It is designed to be worn as an outer layer for wind protection and mobility, with insulation provided by the layers worn underneath.

What is the internal stow pouch for?

The internal stow pouch on the hood is designed for packing the hood away neatly. It includes a webbing loop for attaching the jacket to a carabiner for easy transport when the hood is not in use.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels tight when layering

The jacket features a slim fit designed for climbing performance. Try using thinner base layers or mid-layers. For more relaxed fits, consider a different jacket model.

Water repellency seems reduced

The DWR finish may need reapplication. Clean the jacket thoroughly and then apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to product instructions.

Zipper is stiff

Ensure the zipper area is free of debris. Gently use a soft brush. If still stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent windproof performance for harsh conditions.
Great mobility due to stretch panels and articulated sleeves.
Helmet-compatible hood adds versatility.
Streamlined fit is ideal for climbing activities.
Durable water-repellent finish provides protection from light moisture.

Cons

Slim fit may limit casual layering options.
Primarily designed for climbing, may be overly specialized for general outdoor use.
Water resistance is limited to DWR finish, not fully waterproof.
Narrow cuffs might be snug with thicker gloves.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear out of the package.

Compatibility:

The slim fit is intended to be worn over a base layer or light mid-layer, and under a climbing harness.

Care Instructions:

Restoring DWR: Periodically, you may need to reapply a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish to the jacket. This can be done using a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment according to the product's instructions. Ensure the garment is clean before applying.
