Ridgelite FUTUREFLEECE Wind Jacket - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I bring the Ridgelite FUTUREFLEECE on every alpine trip—it’s insanely light and surprisingly warm for how thin it is. It layers perfectly under a shell, and the no-shoulder-seam design makes it way more comfortable with a pack. This thing lives in my summit kit year-round."

The North Face Ridgelite FUTUREFLEECE Wind Jacket is built to handle high-output missions in cold conditions with minimal weight and maximum efficiency. Part of the Summit Series™, this layer integrates seamlessly into our alpine layering system, delivering warmth, breathability, and low-bulk comfort for demanding objectives.

Crafted with FUTUREFLEECE™ technology, the Ridgelite balances thermoregulation and packability with an impressively soft hand feel. Seamless shoulders and stretch gussets enhance mobility and reduce hot spots under a pack, while the fitted hood and flat-sewn cuffs with thumb loops keep everything secure when conditions shift. Whether we’re pushing to a summit or layering for backcountry missions, this jacket gives us dialed performance without the excess.
