New Winter Jackets From The North Face

We've got three more new North Face jackets to have a look at this morning. We had a look at some of the new fleeces a couple of days ago, now it's the turn for Winter jackets. Theres been a few revisions, style and name changes like the Cassius Triclimate taking over from the Amplitude, but here's the low down on a few newbies!

The North Face Mountain Light Triclimate Jacket. New for this season, it's taken over from The Primavera and it packs a punch. It's got a 3-layer Gore-Tex Performance shell for waterproof, breathable and durable assurance. Under the shell you get a 550 fill down inner jacket that's very similar in style and look to the Nuptse Jacket, just a little less bulky otherwise you'll end up looking like you know who. It comes with all the essential features; fully adjustable & removable hood, two alpine pockets, adjustable cuffs, hem cinchcord and a velcro stormflap closure. We've got three colours expected in this Winter; Deepwater Blue, TNF Red, TNF Black and Asphalt Grey.





Second up we've got the North Face Yellowband Parka. Like the Mountain Light Triclimate it's somewhat of a replacement, this time for the Ice Jacket, but it's been revamped and reinvigorated for the Autumn/Winter 2011 season. It's a shorter length Parka in comparision to others, but it still gives plenty of coverage from the weather. It's got a faux fur trimmed hood to keep the wind and rain away from your face, plus the hood itself is fully adjustable, removable and insulated.

The Yellowband comes with ample storage space with two hand pockets, internal security pocket, bicep pocket and two snap down chest pockets. The Parka uses Hyvent 2L for superior wateproofing and breathability. Inside theres loads of warmth to be had with a 550 fill goose down insulation. The jacket comes in some highly churpy colours; Drummer Blue, Fig Green, Dark Eggplant Purple plus the ever classic TNF Black.





Completely new in this season is the Argento Hoodie. This one's certain to keep you toasty, it's got a 700 fill goose down insulation and uses Hyvent for waterproof and breathable assurance. It features a fully adjustable drop hood, glove loops, hem cinchcord and stretch wrist gaiters. Like the previous two theres more than enough space to store all your much needed essentials with a chest cargo pocket, internal stretch water bottle pocket and two cargo hand pockets.

We've got the Argento coming in four colours; Fig Green, Drummer Blue, TNF Red and TNF Black.
