The North Face Descendit Jacket

The North Face Descendit Jacket

When you want to ski from first lift until last, on groomed corduroy or cutting fresh tracks, you need a Ski Jacket that'll give you dependable protection from mountainous winter weather. The North Face Descendit Jacket combines technical waterproof fabrics, warm PrimaLoft Black™ Insulation and a feature set that keeps snow out, warmth in, and you comfortable enough to make the very last lift of the day.

Waterproof DryVent™

The North Face Descendit Jacket is built from DryVent™, North Face's own waterproof and breathable fabric which is engineered with a Durable Water Repellent finish that helps water or snow form droplets and roll off the fabric. DryVent™ prevents water molecules from penetrating the fabric, while allowing moisture vapor to pass through, keeping you dry and comfortable, hence warm, even when skiing hard.

PrimaLoft Black™ Warmth

Insulated with PrimaLoft Black™, the North Face Descendit Jacket supplies ample warmth for really cold skiing days and long chair lift comfort. PrimaLoft Black™ insulation traps warm air between its synthetic fibres that have 60% recycled poylester, for thermal efficiency that compresses easily. PrimaLoft Black™ insulation is low-profile and supple which allows the freedom of movement that's essential for dynamic skiing. 

Storm-Protective Features

Storm-protective features on the North Face Descendit Jacket include a dedicated Ski Helmet-compatible hood with volume adjusting drawcords, a powderskirt and hem drawcord that prevents snow and cold drafts getting inside your Ski Jacket, and wrist gaiters that keep sleeves in place, maintaining warmth and further eliminating drafts. This North Face Ski Jacket's drop hood design ensures the high collar warms your neck whether the hood's up or down. The North Face Descendit Jacket has pit zip vents that can be undone on demanding runs, traverses and for spring skiing when you need to cool down.

Secure Zipped Pockets

The North Face Descendit Jacket has a useful secure-zip wrist pocket designed to hold an electronic lift pass for quick and smooth entry at the lift gates, an internal media pocket that keeps a phone close to hand, and an internal Ski Goggle pocket. The Descendit Jacket also comes with a handy ski goggle wipe clipped into the sleeve pocket. This North Face Ski Jacket has a distinctive zipped chest pocket and two zipped hand pockets.

Shelter From Mountain Weather

Your pass to skiing in comfort, The North Face Descendit Jacket combines sleek styling, a functional ski-focused design and warm PrimaLoft Black™ insulation into a package that performs and protects in tough blizzard conditions. From groomed piste to exciting forays into fresh powder, the North Face Descendit Jacket will shelter you from harsh mountain weather.
