The North Face Edition: Layering is King

The North Face is continually excelling with its innovative ranges of clothing. From advanced summit jackets for extreme cold, to proprietary FuseForm construction that reduces overall weight, The North Face has been edging out competition with its advances in technology. Sun & Sand Sports gives you the low-down on some of the features TNF boasts and how you can take it on your next outdoor adventure.

FuseForm

With a revolutionary weaving process, the FuseForm technology from The North Face blends lighter, lower-density fibres with thicker, more-durable materials in high-wear zones. What this does is it effectively reduces overall weight and creates a seamless transition from tougher to lighter zones.

GORE-TEX

GORE-TEX Performance Shell fabric has been designed to provide superior comfort and durable, waterproof protection for a wide range of outdoor activities. Revolutionising patented membrane technology, the GORE-TEX system is specifically engineered to form an impenetrable barrier against wind and water.

ThermoBall

The synthetic alternative to down, ThermoBall features PrimaLoft synthetic fibre clusters that mimic the properties of down to efficiently retain warmth. Offering low weight, warmth, loft and compressibility of down material with the wet-weather insulating performance of a synthetic, the ThermoBall is a game-changer for winter and wet-weather wear.

Polartec

Delivering body-hugging, four-way stretch, the Polartec Hardface fleece is extremely breathable and provides unhindered mobility. Wind and abrasion resistant, the durably hardface outer layer features an engineered inner layer that has been mapped with varying thickness and grid sizes to provide targeted warmth.

With features like these, The North Face ensures that you stay ahead of the game and keep you ahead of every challenge that might come your way as you trek through the mountains of Jebel Jais or spend the night camping in Al Qudra during the chilly winter weather of the UAE.
