The North Face Crest Full Zip Fleecejack

Pros and cons



Gilet with stand-up collar
The stand-up collar with zip guard keeps your neck warm and protects against the zip when you do it up.




Warm and stretchy fleece
The brushed inner face adds extra warmth, and the blend of recycled polyester and elastane gives you enough stretch to move freely and comfortably.




Water-repellent treatment
Light snow and splashes bead off the gilet, though it's no substitute for a waterproof jacket in persistent rain.




Largely recycled
The main fabric is 93% recycled polyester, a concrete commitment from The North Face to reducing the use of virgin materials.




No hood
This gilet has a stand-up collar but no hood, so in cold or windy conditions you'll need a helmet or hat to keep your head covered.
