Product Description

The North Face Ladies Thermoball Vest is a warm insulating gilet filled with Thermoball insulation.

Thermoball is warm, lightweight and compressible. It is designed to mimic the insulating properties of down but with the wet-weather insulating properties of synthetic insulation. This means you will stay warm with Thermoball even if it gets wet.

The vest features a diamond quilted stitch design to retain equal distribution of the ThermoBall insulation. The outer fabric material is ripstop to add durability. Two hand pockets provide storage for essential items. The arm holes of the vest feature slight elastication to ensure a good fit.

As a final trick the Thermoball Vest stows away into its own pocket for excellent packability and ease of transportation.

ThermoBall Insulation

ThermoBall offers the lightweight, warmth, loft and compressibility of down insulation but with the wet-weather insulating performance of synthetic. Developed in partnership with PrimaLoft, Thermoball insulation is produced as small balls of synthetic fibers that replicate the clustering properties of down, trapping heat within air pockets to retain warmth. In testing, Thermoball has been found to have the same warmth equivalent of 600 fill goose down.
