So am I to understand this is not a wind proof jacket? Also, how would this compare to TNF apex summit jacket? I've tried the Apex Summit in person and it seemed to be a pretty solid jacket, but this has a bit more style, and a hood.

it is not 100% windproof, as it has some air permeability features. about 95% windproof, with the remaining allowing some air exchange about 6-10 cfm. this allows the jacket to breathe when exerting in the mountains - hiking for side country gates, touring up alpine, or climbing. the TNF apex summit uses WINDBLOC - windproof, but poor breathability - means you can get wet with exertion
