Norrøna Falketind Gore-Tex Pro Shell Jacket - Men's

Judging by the Norrona Men’s Falketind Gore-Tex Pro Shell, we can see that the Norwegians take their weather protection very seriously. This lightweight, waterproof breathable shell seals out moisture without restricting you in full-on alpine conditions. The clean design gives you only the most essential features, like an adjustable hood and drawcord hem to seal out the cold wind and underarm vent zips to dump heat on long, strenuous pitches. When you go to reach for your energy gel at the belay, you’ll be glad that you can access the Falketind’s high hand pockets while wearing your harness.

  • Backcountry.com is the exclusive US distributor for Norrona products

Bottom Line: Uncompromising protection without the heavy extras.

High style but 'light' for the price

By:
October 21, 2009

Note: Mostly in comparison to my Arcteryx Alpha SV jacket.

Pros: Very stylin with the contrast zips; Tighter fit (European cut) if you want something smaller than the Arcteryx shells; totally waterproof; decent wind protection; very light; pockets are relatively shallow but at least they are regular side pockets (vs. the cross-chest pockets found in the Alpha)
Cons: Very thin for Gore-Tex Pro Shell - MUCH thinner than the Alpha and feels more like 2-layer jacket; the wire rim on the hood drops down when cinched - while the Alpha stays out of your eyes by forming into a "cap"; main zipper catches sometimes so can't zip up with one hand

Overall: High style but definitely less jacket for your money than the Arcteryx shells

I think I'm gonna cop this jacket will I be able to fit a down vest under it if I need to? Not a huge puffy, one with a lot of sections so it's not so puffed out.

Great jacket with cool styling

By:
April 3, 2009

Love the jacket. I am 6'2" and 213 lbs. The jackets are definitely an athletic cut because they are not loose and baggy in the body. I went with an XXL because I wanted more room in the body for underlayers; its a little long in the sleeves but the styling and functionality are awesome. Love it!

I just received my jacket from BCountry. I thought the 3 layer

I just received my jacket from BCountry. I thought the 3 layer pro shell were a thicker material. I was expecting the same material as the ArcTeryx Alpha SV but instead it felt more like a 2 layer pro-shell. Is there any way to confirm this?

I was a bit disappointed that this jacket was made in China but then again, what can you expect now a days?

Also, it's too bad they don't use a thicker material around the shoulder much like the westcomb cruiser jackets.
