"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying: ""This jacket is the kind of soft shell I grab when the wind picks up or the terrain turns technical. It layers easily, breathes well thanks to the mesh pockets, and the wrap-around back panel makes it super comfortable under a pack. It’s a true trail companion."" When gusty ridgelines and exposed scrambles test our gear, the Tek Approach Jacket from The North Face rises to the occasion. This soft shell balances protection and comfort with wind-resistant WindWall™ fabric and smart design features that make it ideal for dynamic movement in variable mountain conditions. Built from 91% recycled polyester with a non-PFC DWR finish, it blocks wind and sheds light moisture without sacrificing breathability. The FlashDry™ paneling at the collar facing and sleeve pocket helps regulate moisture, while mesh-lined hand pockets enhance airflow. The wrap-around back panel sits smoothly beneath a hipbelt, and features like reinforced neck seams, secure-zip pockets, and a drawcord hem round out a jacket that’s ready for fast, technical missions on the trail."
