The North Face Defroster Jacket - Women's

Prevent your body from freezing into a block of ice while hiking, climbing or mountaineering, with The North Face Defroster Jacket for women. This soft shell jacket is made from tough, durable, stretchy Pontetorto fabric, a hard-faced fleece that resists abrasion and compresses well for easy stowing in your pack. FlashDry™ panels wick perspiration and moisture to the surface of the fabric for speedy evaporation, extending the comfort range of the jacket and ensuring a dry and comfortable fit for you. The Defroster Jacket is harness and pack-friendly, making it a great piece for everything from backpacking to ice climbing. The handwarmer pockets are accessible without having to remove your pack or harness, and the no-rise hem is slightly longer in the back for comfortable coverage when you're sitting down to lace up your climbing shoes, stretching to clip a draw, or swinging an ice ax. It's lightweight and breathable, making it a great top layer on high elevation summer hikes or mild winter days at the crag, or a cozy mid-layer for wintertime ski mountaineering.
