The North Face 100 Glacier Full Zip is your go-to for versatile warmth across various activities. It excels as a mid-layer during colder hikes, skiing, or climbing, providing critical insulation under a waterproof shell. The zip-in compatible feature means it can quickly become an integral part of a comprehensive layering system with compatible The North Face outerwear.
In milder, dry conditions, it performs wonderfully as a standalone outer layer for casual walks, camping trips, or everyday wear. Its brushed, anti-pilling microfleece offers immediate comfort and warmth, perfect for chilly evenings around a campfire or brisk morning commutes.
The full-zip closure allows you to adapt to changing temperatures; zip it up for maximum warmth or partially open it for ventilation during increased activity. The elastic binding at the hem and cuffs ensures the fleece stays in place and helps trap heat, making it effective for activities requiring movement. The two zipped side pockets are ideal for securing small necessities like keys, a phone, or trail snacks, ensuring they're safe and easily accessible.
Using your The North Face 100 Glacier Full Zip is straightforward: simply put it on and adjust the full-zip and elastic cuffs for a comfortable fit.
This fleece is zip-in compatible with many The North Face Triclimate jackets and other compatible outer shells. Look for outer layers with corresponding zip-in compatible tape and snap at the sleeve opening and a zip-in compatible loop at the neck. This allows you to securely attach the fleece, creating a single, integrated jacket system for enhanced warmth and weather protection.
To ensure the longevity and performance of your 100 Glacier Full Zip:
Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or, ideally, hang dry to preserve the fabric's integrity and energy. Avoid high heat.
Bleach/Iron/Dry Clean: Do not bleach, iron, or dry clean, as these can damage the microfleece fibers and anti-pilling treatment.
Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area.
