The North Face Denali Hooded Fleece Jacket - Men's
The North Face Denali Hooded Fleece Jacket
By MC
Ranked #993 - Men's Fleece Jackets
January 7, 2009
This is a 300 heavyweight fleece but feels like a 200 midweight fleece. Somewhat warm yet bulky jacket.
This fleece jacket will NOT block out the wind so a shell or insulated jacket MUST be worn on top of this fleece for warmth and to block out the wind!
Problem is... it's BULKY so it'll feel tight with a shell!
Used with both TNF and Patagonia waterproof shell jackets and it IS bulky!
It's fashionable mainly due to the hood which is can not be detached but provides warmth and blocks out wind. Comes in very handy since many people, like myself, forget to bring a fleece hat/cap along.
Bought this as a replacement to my other TNF fleece jackets that I own.
It's still PRICEY, which is typical of ALL TNF products!
Will consider another brand's fleece that has the WindPro fleece (blocks out wind) next time at a lower price!
