The North Face

Himalayan Suit - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve used the Himalayan Suit on Denali and it was a total game-changer. It’s lighter than previous versions but warmer and more breathable where it counts. The mobility is spot on—especially with the internal vest system—and the ProDown holds up amazingly well in damp, frigid conditions. This suit is purpose-built for serious alpine expeditions."

When we head into the death zone, we demand gear that’s been tested and refined on the world’s highest summits. The North Face Himalayan Suit has long been a staple in elite alpine circles, and this latest version takes everything to the next level. Designed through years of athlete input and real-world expedition use, it blends advanced materials and purposeful engineering to protect us in the most extreme conditions on Earth.

The combination of 900-fill ProDown™ and targeted synthetic insulation keeps us warm without compromising breathability or packability. FUTURELIGHT™ and Spectra® panels reinforce high-wear zones for waterproof and abrasion-resistant protection without adding bulk. From the self-equalizing vest system made with FlashDry™ to the glove-friendly zippers and helmet-compatible hood, every detail of the Himalayan Suit is tailored for cold, high-altitude missions where mobility, thermal efficiency, and dependability aren’t negotiable.
