help The North Face Aconcagua Jacket FAQ
What insulation does The North Face Aconcagua Jacket use?
The jacket uses hydrophobic down fill, which is treated to resist moisture better than untreated down. It is designed for cold-weather use rather than warm-weather layering.
What is the Aconcagua Jacket’s outer shell made from?
Its shell uses durable nylon ripstop. That construction helps resist abrasion during backpacking and mountaineering use.
Is the Aconcagua Jacket waterproof?
It is weather-resistant, but a down jacket should not be treated as a substitute for a waterproof rain shell. The nylon ripstop shell and hydrophobic down improve moisture resistance without making the jacket fully waterproof.
What activities is the Aconcagua Jacket designed for?
The jacket is intended for extreme cold-weather mountaineering and backpacking conditions. Its combination of nylon ripstop and hydrophobic down is aimed at warmth, durability, and moderate exposure to moisture.
