The North Face Vertical Thermal 1/4 Zip Women's Top

Things can get pretty intense on the trail - which is why you need the right kit to keep your temperature just right. The North Face Vertical Thermal 1/4 Zip is a high-performing midlayer that delivers exactly what you need to stay comfortable on challenging hikes.

The Vertical Thermal 1/4 Zip from The North Face is a high-performing midlayer that delivers exactly what you need to stay comfortable on challenging hikes. The fabric incorporates FlashDry-Pro moisture-wicking technology and DotKnit Thermal - creating a dynamic insulating midlayer that actively wicks moisture away from the skin to help regulate your core microclimate during activity. These innovative technologies work together to keep you feeling cool, dry and ready to push through to the end of the trail. Assisting with temperature control, the top features a quarter-length zip with chinguard that allows you to adjust the airflow while making it easier to put on or take off. A stand collar prevents wind from entering the top, while elastic-bound cuffs and an internal cinch cord lock at the hem provide a closer fit, trapping in warmth. Raglan sleeves are also used to allow a full range of motion when out on the trail, keeping you comfortable no matter what. Wear it as a stand-alone layer or pull it on under a waterproof shell for complete protection in extreme conditions. This jacket is part of our Circular Design initiative - a collection designed to minimise waste and pollution. Once you're done with it, recycle it back to us to keep the adventures going.
