The North Face Apex Elevation Jacket

rated 4 of 5 stars
photo: The North Face Apex Elevation Jacket soft shell jacket

Good fall winter jacket. Excellent wind proofing.

Pros

  • Wind proofing
  • Comfortable
  • Snow shedding

Cons

  • Arm length too long
  • Water repellancy low
  • No hood volume adjustment

This jacket has good technical features. 

It performs very well in fall and early winter conditions. 

The hood is large enough to accommodate a helmet, but needs a volume adjustment. 

The arm length was 2" longer than I needed but the velcro cuff work well. 

The rain I experienced did not stay out after 20 minutes. The jacket shed snow very well.
