Everyone loves a good naked jaunt through the neighborhood, what with the brisk air, chirping birds, and all. But things like chilly temps, rogue branches, and neighborhood-watch initiatives can sometimes hamper your enjoyment. The North Face created the Better Than Naked Cool Jacket with plenty of tech and top-shelf ventilation to protect your man parts from the elements during your next run.

  • Lightweight, breathable, quick-dry fabric features a laser-cut chimney ventilation system to keep you comfortable
  • Strategically bonded, stitchless seams reduce chafing
  • Sanitized Silver antimicrobial treatment helps keep the garment smelling fresh season after season
  • DWR coating helps repel water so it beads up and runs off rather than soaking through
  • Reflective logos help make you more visible to drivers who are texting, eating, or too busy lip syncing to their favorite boy band to bother paying attention

Bottom Line: Clearly, pants are optional.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

How is it possible that TNF didn't include a double zipper in the chest to make this packable into it's front chest pocket. This is a key feature I think that knocks a star off of the rating. I have this and the REI FLEET packable and at 6oz the REI one does me better because I can run and take it in the bike jersey pocket.

8.1 oz on THF's website, but the hooded one somehow weighs 6.7 oz. I'd email North Face and ask.
