subject: North Face Jackets Guide [print this page] You will have seen countless North Face jackets being worn on the streets. It was particularly wet this winter causing the best selling North Face Resolve waterproof jacket to win even more awards this year for being a light, packable and surprisingly warm waterproof jacket for the sudden showers.
Taking their name from the coldest, harshest side of a mountain, The North Face is an ideal clothing brand for winter, because their jackets are not only warm, comfortable and stylish, but they are full of technical features for convenience and protection too.
However, once we get away from the fact that The North Face is a fashionable brand to have printed on your winter coat or waterproof jacket, its easier to compare their clothing to similar products from other premium outdoor brands. But while other brands (and Berghaus is once again a good example), focus on providing protection and technical features as the primary purpose of their apparel, North Face waterproof jackets tend to fit far better, specially around the shoulders which makes your whole outfit far more comfortable if youre layering up to stay warm.
Its subtle improvements in the cut and fit which really make all the difference. So if you ever feel restricted in your current set of outdoor clothing, then maybe its worth giving some North Face kit a try for the extra freedom of movement. Otherwise their jackets are every bit as good as any other premium outdoor brand.
The North Face is one of the best loved outdoor fashion brands for a very good reason and thats because the quality of their clothing and kit really cant be questioned when you consider the price. So while you may have to pay a bit more for the extra features, you know that youre not just paying for a pretty label embroidered on your clothes.
But when you head out wearing your North Face jackets, North Face trekking trousers and a pair of North Face Hedgehog XCR trainers theres no question about outdoor clothing looking fashionable. So its no surprise how popular North Face apparel is for everyday wear.
Weve often said that many casual walkers looking for comfort and quality in their clothing will find themselves torn between The North Face and Berghaus. Both brands offer very similar products at very similar price points whether its waterproofs, fleeces, trousers or trainers.
But while North Face focuses on comfort and fit, Berghaus tends to offer more technical performance and protection. So whichever you choose will either come down to your particular preference or simply which brand you like best.
