Product Description
WIND-RESISTANT SOFT SHELL JACKET WITH WINDWALL™ FABRIC, STRETCH COMFORT AND TRAIL-READY STORAGE
The North Face Men’s Tek Approach Jacket is a wind-resistant soft shell layer built for gusty days, trail movement and active outdoor use. Designed with WINDWALL™ fabric, it helps block wind from penetrating the garment, reducing the effects of wind chill while keeping the jacket comfortable and easy to move in.
The recycled polyester and elastane body fabric provides a balance of durability, stretch and weather protection. A non-PFC DWR finish helps water bead on the surface of the fabric, making it a practical outer layer for light rain, changing conditions and exposed trail sections.
The wrap-around back panel adds comfort when wearing a pack, while the drawcord hem allows you to adjust coverage when the weather shifts. Secure-zip hand pockets keep essentials close, and mesh pocket bags help improve breathability during active use.
Finished with FLASHDRY™ collar facing and sleeve pocket materials, elasticated cuffs, a bonded sleeve pocket and heat transfer logos, the Tek Approach Jacket is a clean, functional layer for hiking, travel, walking and everyday outdoor wear.
