The North Face Terra Peak Men's Vest

The North Face Terra Peak Men's Vest is a lightweight synthetic insulated vest that adds core warmth without bulk. Blown synthetic insulation that stays warm even when wet, a durable recycled ripstop shell, and a packable design make it an easy layer for hikes, cool mornings, and everyday wear.

Why we like it:

The ThermoBall insulation keeps working when it gets damp, which makes this vest a reliable layer in wet shoulder-season weather. It also stows in its own chest pocket.

Features and Functions:

Blown ThermoBall insulation made from 100 percent post-consumer recycled polyester is placed in channels to keep you warm even when wet. A recycled nylon Pertex Quantum ripstop forms the shell, with a self-fabric overlay on the collar and yoke for durability and a recycled polyester lining. A stand collar, an exposed center front zip with a chin guard, and a brushed-tricot lining at the top of the draft flap add comfort. It stows in its internal drop-in chest pocket and weighs about 340 grams.

Fit and Sizing:

Cut with a regular fit, the Terra Peak layers over a base layer or under a shell. Elastic-bound armholes and hem keep the fit clean.

Bottom Line:

Light and packable, the Terra Peak Vest is a three-season core warmer for hikes, commutes, and cool mornings.
