The North Face Immaculator Parka

Puffy

Brand: The North Face Gear Reviews

Model: Immaculator Parka


Bringing a Michelin Man-style crisis puffy can sometimes seem like overkill. But when conditions turned sour or we just wanted to get cozy in camp we were happy we had packed the 800-fill goose down Immaculator. With a DWR-treated nylon ripstop shell, it repels moderate precip, and a drop-tail hem covered our butts when we sat on cold rocks. The helmet-compatible hood allowed ample head mobility when we were belaying on wind-whipped crags. But the best part? A contoured fit kept drafts from sneaking up the hem.
