The North Face

Oroshi Jacket - Men's

Warming up in muggy forests, hiking through drizzly mountain valleys, and blasting up exposed alpine ridges is a really good way to test your gear, but the Oroshi Men's Jacket from The North Face will pass all of its exams with flying colors. It's a lightweight, waterproof, and highly breathable shell made from Gore-Tex Active Shell to keep you comfortable during aerobic activities like hiking, climbing, or even jogging, and it comes complete with fully taped seams to provide bomber weather protection even in driving rains. Underarm zips help you cool down when the day is as warm as it is wet, and the helmet-compatible hood cinches down over your brainbucket, so you can keep your hair dry while you squint through the drops trying to see if your partner's finished the pitch yet. Three concealed pockets keep you organized and fed, too, so you don't get sloppy and hungry before you've wrapped up your bad-weather odyssey.
