Men's The North Face Higher Run Wind meadow grass/oak green running jacket

Whether you[re training for orienteering, street running or cross-country, you want to ensure that the items stored in your jacket pockets are safe. Equipping the pockets with a convenient closure will keep valuables in place and the risk of losing them is minimised.

The jacket is equipped with reflective elements. When, for example, the headlights of a moving car fall on the reflector, it will absorb, let through and then reflect the light back. This increases the wearer[s safety after dark when travelling on the road.

Thanks to its well-thought-out construction, the use of suitable materials and technology, the jacket features good windproofing. Gusts of cold wind are effectively blocked, so that even in windy weather the body will remain comfortable and the risk of chilling is minimised.

Waterproof properties are one of the most important features of clothing designed for outdoor activities. The jacket is finished with a hydrophobic impregnation, which makes any water found on the fabric run off instead of soaking into it. Combined with the waterproof membrane, this provides excellent protection against rain.

During a running workout, we often run out of storage space for small items such as keys or a phone. The jacket is equipped with pockets so that you can always have the necessary items close at hand. On some models of running jackets, the pocket also serves as a pouch to store the jacket when folded.

During increased physical activity, especially on warmer days, the body temperature rises. Thanks to the clever design and the use of vents in the jacket, excess warm air is drawn away from the skin to the outside, increasing comfort when running.
