Men's Himalayan Suit
Designed for professional athletes who have their sights set on the very top, The North Face's pinnacle Himalayan Suit is now lighter, warmer and more durable than ever. Built for 8,000-metre peaks, it's loaded with 800 fill goose down at the body and 700 fill at the sleeves for exceptional warmth, as well as PrimaLoft® Gold at the legs for steady insulation when wearing an over-boot gaiter. A welded-baffle construction eliminates cold spots and ensures ruggedness. For safety, there’s an intuitive and secure integrated suspender system, grip zones on the shoulders and hips to keep your pack in place as you scale higher, and reflective elements so you're visible on alpine starts.
