The North Face Plasma Thermal Jacket - Men's
just okay, zipper gets stuck

Ranked #973 - Men's Synthetic Insulation Jackets
December 1, 2010
It's okay... moderately warm. I feel like it should be warmer compared to some other primaloft based clothes I have. It could just be my particular jacket but the zipper gets stuck almost every time I wear it, and it gets stuck good. That really sucks when it happens hanging off a rock someplace with thick gloves on etc. A few times I just couldn't get it unstuck and had to leave it that way for hours. The hyvent fabric is not as supple on this jacket as it is on other north face jackets of mine, the shell is a bit stiffish almost like a semi hard shell.
