The North Face TKA 100 Glacier 1/4 Zip Fleece Pullover - Men's
The North Face TKA 100 Glacier ¼ zip is a soft microfleece pullover perfect for layering or just bumming around on a crisp spring day. TKA microfleece is extremely lightweight, resists pilling and fading, and keeps its shape so it won't get trashed in a single season. The TKA 100 is quick drying and has a relaxed fit so you can really get some slacking done.
Bottom Line: Wear the TKA 100 Glacier Zip alone for slacking or layered for technical use.

I'm looking for a warmth layer for backpacking in Colorado & Utah. Often must deal with temps ranging from 30 to 60 degrees while packing up a 14,000 mountains. I want something with a reasonable comfort range so I'm not constantly changing clothes. I have a wind shirt and a gortex rain jacket to go over this. I tend to get colder than most while resting but don't need unusual insulating while exercising. Does this product have a good comfort range, or is there another one that would be better?

This is so very comfortable. Great layer for inside or outside. I highly recommend this piece. Great back packing layer if the temperatures are in the 30 - 50's. I use often to sleep in inside my bag. As with most TNF items very stylish as well.

I ordered this fleece as a layer for skiing. Combined with a wicking layer and jacket I stayed quite warm for 4 days in 20 deg temps. I ordered a large and thought the sleeves were a little short, but I am 6'-4" and have long arms... Overall, I'm very pleased.

My 5 yr. old son just loves this pullover. Pullover is not thick, but still keeps my son warm. Soft material so my son didn't complain about an itchy material. Very happy with the length of the sleeves.

I bought this and the TKA Micro 1/4 zip fleece; they were both so good that I ended up buying 1 more of each. I'm a fan of Marmot fleece, but honestly TNF fleece is better. It blocks the wind very well, is lightweight, and sheds dirt better than expected. Quality is first rate.

The TKA 100 is a great fleece pullover. Great for just about anything. I am hitting the slopes next week and it will be worn under my jacket. I had one last year and it worked well on the slopes as a good layer, until it got stolen. If you have it, bring it back, please

I bought this fleece to take backpacking with me to be used as a mid layer below a waterproof shell when hiking or with a softshell for when it was really cold. It performed a treat. Also came in handy on its own when it was a bit chilly but too warm for the softshell. I liked it because it was very light, didn't take up much room and was well made.

Honestly I get kinda cold for I am a little on the too thin side and need to start eating some of that ole red meat and bulk up the bones but the college diet kinda eliminates that coveted steak meal (I'm 6'1 160) If I bought this again I would go for a heavy weight like the 200 fleece weight, Its nice quality and pretty snug (I got a medium). This would be ideal for spring skiing.

The XL did not fit like a normal XL should fit. The sleeves and body of the pullover were much shorter than an XL should be.

Just as advertised you can brave all the elements with this quality fleece. I've worn it for winter cycling and as casual wear and as a PJs. You can't go wrong with this one. Lot's of compliments. Great fit too!

The TKA 100 Glacier pullover is excellent. It is so soft! Great as a base or mid layer for cool evenings or early mornings. The length is good but the sleeves are just a little short. Be careful around velcro with it. Other than that it is great.

I bought the TKA 100 as a replacement to my TNF ultrawick shirt. Though I miss the 3/4 zip of the ultrawick, I love this shirt. Whenever I need a light layer (I live in AK so I need one quite a bit) I grab this one.

I have bought two Glacier fleece jackets and love them both. The lightweight 100 TKA fleece material is perfect for a moderately cool day. The jacket fits snugly so it is perfect when worn alone or as a bottom layer for cooler days. I layer the Glacier with a TNF Resolve jacket on cool, rainy days and with my Pumori fleece on colder days.
For size comparison, I am 6'3", 230 lbs. so I bought the XL which is snug but not too tight.

another great North Face product.
This shirt is just warm enough to go under a shell for x-country skiing or downhill. On its own, it offers enough warmth for jogging on a cool spring morning. Washes up great, and retains no odor. True North Face quality you'd expect.

Excellent product. Reasonable price, nice fit, very light weight, and soft as a baby's bottom! Very warm too, especially for the weight of the material. Hopefully, North Face will keep this one going!

This is a good, light fleece. Perfect for a second layer (on a relatively nice day) while skinning up the Chugach here in AK. No frills. Solid construction. Good looking and great value.

I bought this pullover before leaving for a weekend in Chicago in early February 07...winds chills to -25. This pullover was a brilliant addition to my coat and thermal undershirts. It looks great, is the softest piece of clothing I've ever worn, and fits like a glove. I'd recommend this pullover to anyone looking to add a layer a warmth or living in cool areas. You'll not be disappointed - North Face and Patagonia make the best fleece pullovers on the market!

1st of all, this website is legit. customer service couldn't be better, and they have good prices. this is my second time around with this pullover and my first one goes with me everywhere. i sleep in it when i go camping, throw this on after surfing, lounge around the house with it. for a 100, it is surprisingly warm. i would go with any color but black though as it tends to attract a little hair and lint. but this is a QUALITY fleece that doesn't cling.

The TKA 1/4 Glacier pullover is quality. I was looking for something that I could pack on trips that didn't take up much space. This is a light fleece that works well even in really chilly weather (57F and didn't need another jacket). My only criticism is that I wish they made the fleece about a 1/2 inch longer. All in all, great buy and well worth checking it out.

The Pullover shirts were a big hit Christmas Day. They are warm and cozy, perfect warmth for a midwest winter day when the abnormal warm winter days don't demand a coat. Thanks for a great website and prompt service. I always know I can find what I need with you without driving all over town for right size and color. Thanks, Mom.

So I got this about a month ago and it's great. We try to save money on the gas bill in the apartment (I'm a college student) and so I wanted something I could just throw on to keep warm whenever, without having to put on my bigger The North Face fleece. This pullover looks great too...I think I might get another one in a different color.

This fleece is wonderful I have worn it comfortably in low forty, high thirty degree weather. Then when it got down in the twenties I threw my down jacket over it and was just toasty! Great fleece.

I bought one of these, and went back and bought one of each color. They are perfect for casual wear. Not too heavy, and not too light. I just love wearing the tops and matching fleece pants. So comfortable on the trail, after skiing or just hanging out!

My purchase was great! The order was shipped promptly. The pullover is awesome, very soft and very good for layering. Like The North Face says, it stays the same after washing it in the washing machine.

I love this pullover. I purchased this for myself and realized that I need to share this with others, so I purchased several more for family and friends. The prices are good and I liked the free shipping deal. I will definitely purchase here again.

This is the only shirt I’ve bought twice and loved. My first one got destroyed, but I thought this shirt was so good I had to buy it again. Ideal for just about everything. It’s light but not too thin. Warm but not too hot. Highly recommended if you want a do-it-all layering piece.

This shirt is amazing! It is an awesome base layer or great to wear over a T-shirt in the summer and fall and even better over button ups in the winter months. And the material feels great unlike the Vaporwick fabric.

This fleece is very comfortable, and I would highly recommend it. It's very casual, great as layering piece or on its own depending on the weather. Very sharp looking, and fun to wear around with a pair of jeans.

The Glacier is really nice ''warm,soft''
shirt/base layer.I have not really had the chance to test it out in very cold conditions yet. But I know it will perform great. I plan on wearing it under a Gore-Tex jacket so I'am sure it will kick ass. So, as for feel, fit and overall construction of the Glacier I give it 5 stars. Thanks again Backcountry.

This is a great fleece. The cut is firm and its muy comfortable. It's so nice that I've been looking for excuses to wear it... 70 degrees, yeah that's cold enough to need to a fleece. The same great feeling as being wrapped up in a hoodie but when a bit more sophisticated style is required, like a date.

I bought this for running in the cold weather but ended up using it daily. Very comfortable for casual wear or put a windproof vest on top of it for hardcore running in the cold weather.
Simply a great piece of clothing.
