Climashield Prism



Climashield Prism is Neos genetic cousin and exhibits many of the same ultra-high performance qualities. Prism requires less wattage (i.e. energy) than any other fill, meaning that bags with Prism will maintain their temperature more easily when wet. Overall, Prism loses 15 percent less heat when wet.



Goose Down Fills



Using only the highest quality Hungarian goose down in all of our products, each lot of down is thoroughly tested at three stages of production for loftiness, moisture resistance and ability to regain loft after compression.



The fill power of goose down is an indicator of two important features: warmth-to-weight ratio and compressibility; both critical to retain warmth and furnish comfort. 900 Fill Down: Highest quality, lightest, most compressible down commercially available and exclusive to The North Face.



One ounce of this down fills a volume of 900 cubic inches - the highest weight to volume down available.



800+ Fill Down: Outstanding warmth in a lightweight package



700 Fill Down: Superior insulation in a lightweight for bitterly cold environments



600 Fill Down: Strong warmth-to-weight ratio for a range of temperatures



550 Fill Down: Lightweight insulation with a high weight-to-warmth ratio.



Pertex®



Pertex® fabric technology is based on a natural phenomenon called capillary action technology. Capillary action is the ability for water to be drawn up into narrow spaces.



Moisture moves along the capillaries between the fibres and spreads over a large surface area where it evaporates
