A utility fleece piece designed to resist pilling and fading after a year's worth of laundry trips.
You could spend a little more on a couple of cheap fleece pullovers and jackets in various thicknesses and be done for ten months, or you could buy this versatile and long-lasting TKA 100 1/4 Zip Glacier Jacket from The North Face. Unlike bargain discount fleece, The North Face TKA 100 1/4 Zip Glacier Jacket has a special fabric design that resists pilling and fading without falling apart--no matter how many times you wash it. Granted, it won't hold up to a decade of rolling around on granite boulders, but when you consider that the cheap stuff often frays and pills under a waterproof shell, well there isn't much of a comparison. This is a great summer piece for evening camping and it also layers well beneath an insulated performance shell throughout the skiing and climbing season.

Best item of clothing in my closet
I love, love, love this fleece. I now have a blue and black one and was looking for additional colors. Unfortunately Northface has discontinued this style. I don't know how they could improve upon it, but it better be good!!! Love to wear around the house over a T-shirt. I'm 5'9" 165 and a medium fits perfectly.
got to get more
Great fit, perfect for SC weather, love the colors. My sons wear them all the time (6' and 165-175 lbs). I am definitely ordering more.
Fantastic
I've been eying this jacket for quite some time and finally got it when it's on sale. Great design by TNF, great comfort and beautiful color. Works perfectly in Nor Cal weather; useful both at a cool summer night and in cold winter days (as an inner layer), or probably any time in between. It's one of most versatile jackets one can own. Even when not on sale, it's well worth every penny of the price. Highly recommend, especially to those outdoor lovers.
awesome look and feel
I bought this for my husband last Christmas and am getting ready to get him another one. I love they way he looks in it. It is so soft...
Awesome fleece
This fleece is absolutely fantastic! I have three of these and they are my go-to fleece for the winter. Love 'em. Would highly recommend to all.
