Your The North Face 100 Glacier Full Zip Jacket is designed for active lifestyles and everyday comfort. Here's how to get the most out of it:
This jacket excels as a mid-layer. On colder days, wear it over a base layer (like a wicking t-shirt) and under a waterproof/windproof shell. The zip-in compatibility with Triclimate jackets is a key feature here. Simply zip it into a compatible outer shell at the front closure and secure the sleeves and neck loops to create a single, integrated jacket system that provides both warmth and weather protection. This makes it perfect for:
Hiking and Trekking: Provides warmth during cooler mornings or evenings, and can be easily stowed when not needed.
Skiing/Snowboarding: An excellent mid-layer for resort days, keeping you warm under your ski jacket.
Casual Everyday Wear: Comfortable for running errands, walks in the park, or relaxing at home.
The full-zip design allows for quick ventilation. Zip it down when you're exerting yourself or if the temperature rises, and zip it up to your high collar for maximum warmth when you cool down or the wind picks up. The hand pockets are perfect for keeping your hands warm or stashing small essentials securely.
The regular fit ensures you can move freely without feeling restricted, making it suitable for various activities. It also provides enough room for light base layers underneath without feeling overly baggy.
There's no complex setup required for your jacket. Simply unpack and wear. For optimal fit, ensure the main zipper moves freely and the sleeve and hem bindings sit comfortably.
Your 100 Glacier Full Zip Jacket is designed to integrate with The North Face Triclimate outer shells. To use this feature:
Lay your compatible Triclimate outer shell flat, unzipped.
Align your fleece jacket inside the shell.
Locate the zip-in compatible tape on the fleece and the corresponding zipper track on the outer shell. Zip the fleece into the shell.
Locate the snap loops at the sleeve openings of the fleece and snap them to the corresponding loops in the outer shell's sleeves.
Secure the through zip-in compatible loop at the neck of the fleece to the corresponding point in the outer shell.
Once integrated, the two jackets function as one, providing a comprehensive layering system.
To ensure the longevity and performance of your fleece jacket, follow these care instructions:
Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors. Use a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can reduce the fleece's wicking capabilities and cause pilling.
Drying: Tumble dry low or, preferably, air dry flat. High heat can damage fleece fibers and lead to shrinking or pilling.
Bleach/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron. Ironing can melt or damage the synthetic fibers.
Dry Cleaning: Do not dry clean.
Storage: Store in a clean, dry place. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
Pilling: To minimize pilling, wash inside out and avoid rubbing against rough surfaces during wear.
