"This jacket is like wearing a fortress of warmth—it handles harsh cold without slowing me down. The Spectra® ripstop reinforcements and 700-fill recycled down make it bomber in every way."

When winter missions demand maximum protection and high-performance warmth, we reach for the High Kinetics Extreme Kalix Down Hooded Jacket. The North Face engineered this insulated puffer with Spectra® ripstop reinforcements in high-wear zones and premium 700-fill recycled down to strike the perfect balance of durability and lofty heat retention. Whether we're moving fast through alpine terrain or navigating urban cold spells, this jacket keeps us dialed in for comfort and coverage.

Designed with full winter layering in mind, the Kalix features a helmet-compatible hood, articulated sleeves, and strategic baffling that enhances mobility without adding bulk. Spectra® ripstop at the shoulders, hood, and sleeves resists abrasion while the Pertex® Quantum shell offers featherlight wind and moisture protection.
