A great looking and fantastic shell for the women that loves to be outdoors. This shell blocks out the wind while giving you the protection that you want and need from a great layering piece. This Windstopper Hybrid Full Zip Top for women is very slimming, has an incredible stretch breathable knit material that will move with you as you do, and also regulates your temperature, keeping you at a comfortable temperature all day long. The Carbon Bamboo Technology enhances the performance qualities of the fabric when used for all of your active outdoor endeavors. Dried Bamboo is carbonized in a kiln, then ground into a fine powder. This carbon powder is blended with a polymer to form fibers that are woven or knit into this fabric. The end result is a high performance garment in a compressible and comfortable fabric that has wicking properties, these properties move moisture away from your skin, keeping you dry and comfortable. Other features are the odor absorption, molecules are trapped so they do not release any odors and the UV (Ultraviolet Protection) of 30. These performance qualities do not diminish from washings, the carbon is added to the polymer, where it has become part of the fabric instead of a coating that washes away over time. Tough and durable this fabric will remain which is great because this garment will easily become your favorite for many seasons to come.

What could possibly keep The North Face Women’s WindStopper Hybrid Full-Zip Jacket from retaining lots of sweaty odors during your runs, bike rides, and hikes? A bit of carbon from bamboo. This natural fiber addition decomposes odor-causing molecules, and carbon’s highly porous nature wicks like mad and increases the fabric’s surface area for a fast dry time and efficient wicking. WindStopper blocks fierce head and back winds while thumb holes prevent sleeve bunching.

The North Face WindStopper Hybrid Full-Zip Jacket

Rating:*****

I purchased this jacket for cold weather running, and I've been thrilled with it. I get chilled easily, and this jacket keeps me warmer than I expected. The monkey thumb cuffs cover my gloves to mid-hand, helping to keep my digits warmer. But if you like to see your watch, it has to be worn over the jacket sleeve. And quite importantly, it doesn't restrict my range of movement at all. Ladies, it's figure-flattering as well!
