The North Face Hyalite Down Parka - tnf black size: m

Insulation, fabric and protection

• Responsible use certified (RDS) 550 cuin goose down filler, offering high insulating power to keep the body warm in cold weather, at a relatively light weight for its class.

• 30-45g/m² 100% nylon outer fabric with durable DWR water repellent finish, designed to repel splashes and light rain, delaying down soaking.

• Designed for wet winters and cool autumns, with a balance of warmth, weight and wind resistance.

Cut, length and size M

• Regular / standard cut, with a slightly longer silhouette than the classic Hyalite jacket, reaching approximately to the upper or mid-thigh, to offer greater protection to the trunk.

• In size M the parka fits medium chest, waist and shoulder contours, maintaining mobility even when worn over a base layer or thin fleece.

• Designed for urban use (walking, commuting, travelling) as well as for light winter hiking or mountain trekking.

Hood, zips and pockets

• Fixed integrated hood with the same down filling as the body, designed to keep the head and ears well covered from the cold without obstructing vision too much.

• Oversized VISLON® centre zip with sturdy closure, easy to use even with cold hands or thin gloves.

• Includes zipped side pockets for hands or small items, plus an inner chest pocket, useful for phone, cards or documents for safe keeping.

Technical details and comfort

• Elasticated inner cuffs help retain warmth at the wrists, reducing cold air ingress without over-tightening.

• Waistband with lightweight elasticated inner hem or elasticated trim at the back, helping to keep warmth close to the body without losing freedom of movement.

• Seams and finishes designed to retain down and withstand daily use, with a technical-urban approach (down jacket, not sleepwear).

Performance in weather and use

• The down and lightweight outer shell make the parka very effective in cold and moderate climates, ideal for autumn and winter, with good performance even if the air becomes slightly damp.

• It works as a warm top layer in the city or as a down layer for mild mountain use, combining well with a waterproof jacket if conditions become more severe.

• The tnf black colour is very versatile, matching almost any type of trousers, dress or footwear, both outdoor and casual, with a technical, understated look.
