The North Face Men's Summit Eastwall GTX Jacket is purpose-built for big-mountain freeriding, steep backcountry ascents, and severe alpine weather. Constructed with a durably waterproof, windproof, and breathable GORE-TEX 3-layer shell treated with a non-PFC DWR finish, this technical uninsulated shell provides an impenetrable barrier against wind, wet snow, and driving spindrift while allowing moisture vapor to escape during high-output climbs. A stepped hem design optimizes back coverage without bunching while touring or riding, while pack-friendly alpine pockets and underarm vents ensure quick access to gear and temperature management. Engineered for seamless integration with alpine layers and built to withstand the demands of rigorous mountain exploration, the Summit Eastwall GTX Jacket delivers peak performance when conditions are at their most extreme.
