The North Face Salathe Fleece Jacket - Women's - 2005
The North Face Salathe Fleece Jacket offers insulation without bulk using Polartec 100 fleece. This lightweight jacket is loaded with tons of features. It's warm, soft, compressible and durable-ideal for summer backpacking and hiking. The fabric dries quickly, launders well, resists pilling and is treated with an anti-microbial finish. The nylon/Lycra cuffs and hem seal out the elements and provide a close fit. Flat-locked seams which eliminate bulk, prevent chafing and improve comfort when layering. The Salathe is designed to zip into TNF shells for complete weatherproofing and warmth. *Please note: TNF outerwear tends to run a size larger than you might normally wear. Please consult the sizing chart to determine your proper TNF size.
Bottom Line: Great for cool weather wear and cold weather layering, the Salathe will be the first thing you pack.
Great! I was backpacking for a week and didn't get a single blister. They weren't too hot for the summer, either (although it was nice to change into clean cotton socks at the end of the day).
I bought my second NF Salathe jacket after using the first one on a couple of trips that we went on. It works great on the plane because I am always cold and it is just the right weight.
I bought the TNF Salathe jacket after wearing my husband's jacket. I like the lime green color in the womens and it goes with most everything. It is a great jacket for keeping a chill off and is very light as well. We are taking a couple of trips and am sure that it will do the trick on the plane. I am always cold on the plane. Great colors and price.
Great lightweight jacket! I wear it outdoors AND indoors, since it is not bulky and keeps me warm. I had some trouble with my order, but the BackcountryStore.com staff was extremely helpful on the phone and straightened everything out. I am very satisfied with my purchase!
I have to say, this was my first quality fleece, and it was well worth the money. It is lightweight and not too heavy even for summer evenings. My only complaint so far is the initial pilling. Enormous amounts of fuzz have come off the jacket. I'm hoping the first washing will do away with this. Overall, a good buy.
This is a nice, soft, lightweight fleece jacket that is zip-in compatible with many North Face jackets. It fits very well and so far is holding up nicely. The only complaint I have about the jacket is that there is no nylon type lining in the sleeves like there is in many zip-in fleeces. This would make it much easier to put on over a sweater, cotton shirt or other fleece garment.
I recently bought a The North Face fleece form BackcountryStore.com. I have worn the fleece since that day I received it in the mail. BackcountryStore.com's tracking system for their products allowed me to know down to the hour where my product was and when it would arrive. Thank you BackcountryStore.com for suppling The North Face's quality products and for your great customer serviece
Stylish jacket but I can feel wind go through the fleece when its very windy outside. I guess that's to be expected though since this is one of North Face's cheaper and most lightweight fleeces (Polartec 100).
My first time on a snowboard and it (and I) survived! It was perfect! It had all the features a newbie like me needed and all the comfort for the ride home!
The North Face Fleece jacket I purchased is the best purchase I have made in a long time! It is light enough to wear on cool days to cover up a little, but is also super warm as a base layer when things really get on the chilly side. I basically live in it--I wear it every day! It was money very well spent! I will be purchasing another one very soon!
This is a nice lightweight fleece, however, it is very thin. Needs to be worn with layers. Meant for early spring or early fall weather. Not as warm as expected for the northeast temperatures. It is a nice looking jacket.
