The North Face Men's Summit Series Casaval Hoodie Black S

The North Face Summit Casaval Hooded Jacket is a men's jacket designed for mountaineering and climbing. Designed to be worn as a highly breathable mid layer, it adapts to changes in temperature thanks to 40 g/m² Ventrix synthetic insulation technology, which opens up as you move to let moisture escape and closes when you stop to retain heat. The construction ensures maximum freedom of movement thanks to stretch fabrics, underarm gussets and no seams at all on the shoulders. The fixed hood is compatible with a climbing helmet, the full-length centre front zip has a zip guard and the side hand pockets feature covered secure zips for maximum practicality. The low-profile hem incorporates gathered elastic inserts at the sides, while the cuffs combine FlashDry-Pro stretch fabric with a gathered construction that ensures a close fit and fast moisture management. The main body and lining are made of 91 g/m² 85% recycled nylon and 15% elastane with FlashDry technology, while the yoke, sleeves and hood use a 71 g/m² fabric of 89% recycled nylon and 11% elastane with high-durability FlashDry-XD technology; the entire garment is finished with a PFC-free durable water-repellent treatment to shed water. With a regular fit, true to size, a weight of 496 grams and a centre back length of 72.4 cm, this garment is an excellent choice if you tackle the most demanding faces and alpine routes and are looking for dynamic comfort, protection and breathability.
