The North Face Summit Breithorn Men's Vest delivers packable down core warmth for fast-and-light mountain days. High-fill down warms your center while a downproof, water-beading shell handles light weather. It's a minimalist insulator for climbing and touring.

Why we like it:

The warmth-to-weight is the draw; it puts serious down heat over your core in a vest that packs down to almost nothing, keeping your arms free for movement. The water-beading shell adds a light weather buffer.

Features and Functions:

The Breithorn Vest insulates with natural ProDown behind a 15D Pertex Y Fuse shell of 100% recycled nylon with downproof, water-beading properties and a non-PFC DWR finish. The result is a lightweight, packable core-warmth layer built for high-output alpine use.

Fit and Sizing:

A slim fit layers cleanly under a shell or over a baselayer. It's trim and athletic, built for active use. True to size; size up for more room.

Bottom Line:

This is a lightweight down vest, best for climbers and tourers who want core warmth without weight or bulk. It layers into a fast-and-light kit and disappears in the pack. A focused alpine insulator.
