Ice pitch or skin track, the Summit Casaval Hoodie keeps pace with your effort
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I wore this on a long alpine day where the effort swung from a slow approach to a hard, sweaty climb. The VENTRIX insulation kept me from overheating on the way up, and the underarm gussets never once got in the way of reaching for a hold."
The Summit Casaval Hoodie is built for the days when your effort never stays the same, an early alpine start, a grinding skin track, a sudden pitch that has your heart rate spiking. The North Face designed it as a mid layer that keeps working as your output changes, moving with you through the slow stretches and the hard ones alike without ever feeling like it's in the way.
VENTRIX insulation sits at the core of that versatility, engineered to breathe under load so your body temperature stays regulated whether you're climbing, skiing, or working your way up a steep approach. Underarm gussets and a shoulder seam-free build allow full arms-up mobility, while a helmet-compatible hood and low-profile, harness-friendly hem carry that same thinking through every detail of the fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How warm is the Men’s Summit Casaval Hoodie for high-output alpine use?
The North Face Summit Casaval Hoodie uses 40 g/m² VENTRIX insulation made from 80% recycled polyester and 20% polyester for moderate warmth with breathability and mobility. At an average weight of 1 lb 1 oz (496 g), it’s suited to active cold-weather use rather than deep-winter static warmth.How does the Summit Casaval Hoodie handle light precipitation?
Its 40D main body and lining use 85% recycled nylon and 15% elastane with FLASHDRY and a non-PFC DWR finish, which helps shed light moisture. It is not a waterproof shell, so wear a shell over it for sustained rain or wet snow.Does the Men’s Summit Casaval Hoodie work under a climbing harness or pack?
Yes. The 15% elastane in the main fabric supports stretch, while underarm gussets and the design without shoulder seams help with reach under pack straps or a harness. Its low-profile hem is also designed for comfort under a harness.What sizes are available in The North Face Summit Casaval Hoodie?
The listed sizes are S, M, L, XL, and XXL. For a closer performance-layer fit, use chest and sleeve measurements; the available men’s chart places size M at approximately 97–104 cm chest and size L at 105–112 cm.How should I layer the Summit Casaval Hoodie for ski touring or winter hiking?
Wear it over a base layer for active insulation, then add a shell when you need protection from sustained precipitation or exposed conditions. The 40 g/m² VENTRIX insulation and FLASHDRY-treated fabric are designed for breathability during movement, not to replace a waterproof outer layer.
