The North Face Bizzo Pant - Men's

Item #TNF5613 | 0 in Stock

How come The North Face website says these pants are 3L Gore-Tex...

By Ranked #949 - Men's Ski Pants January 2, 2011

How come The North Face website says these pants are 3L Gore-Tex Performance Shell and you guys say it's 3L Gore-Tex Pro Shell? Same thing goes for the Bizzo jacket? I've had this problem before, saying it's Pro Shell and it ended up being Performance Shell, but liked the stuff so much I kept it anyways. I'm inclined to believe The North Face site seeing how it's their clothing and they manufactured it...

TNF used a lot of 3L performance shell this year because it has a little more give and stretch than the pro shell. I can see how backcountry got mixed up - generally only the pro shell is 3L.

I have seen these pants on a couple other websites and they list the fabric as "Gore-Tex Performance Shell". I think you are correct and the spec for this product is incorrect.
