Product Information

Full details

The North Face Antora Rain Parka is designed for adult women seeking reliable protection from the elements during outdoor activities. Its primary benefit is providing waterproof and breathable coverage in a long, hooded design. A potential consideration is its 100% polyester construction, which may be less breathable than some technical fabrics. Key features include a zip fastening, an integral hood for enhanced weather defense, and a durable polyester material.
