Field Fashion Friday: Highlights of the North Face Sale

Usually, the only sale I comb through with this much attention is the Nordstrom Half Yearly, but the North Face has just put their goods on major discount across several sites (like REI.COM and Moosejaw.com) and the deals are good. Now’s a good time to get some good pieces for cheap that you can wear in the city but also translate to the occasional skiing, glamping, hiking, or hunting trip.

• The North Face Momentum Triclimate Jacket – $125

 

I’ll start with this one because it is the most versatile and functional, with a zip in/zip out fleece layer and waterproof exterior shell. On rainy days, zip out the fleece layer and wear just the waterproof shell. On winter nights, lounge about the house in the fleece liner. This type of system is called a 3-in-1 and is sold by lots of brands. (I own one by Columbia and love it.) If you think you might go skiing this year, this would be a great investment.

• The North Face tees – $17

Both this and this are good for just about any outdoor pursuit. Cute logo coloring here too. Polyester is good for outdoor activities because it dries fast!

• The North Face Horizon Shorts – $30

They look a little dweebish in this pic but I bet they are cute on. It’s hard to find a short with long enough inseam to not ride up but short enough inseam to not look butch. These seem to be just right.

If you want something similar but a little shorter, try:

• The North Face Maywood Shorts – $28

(they come in more colors too)

For the hunters in the group, this would be feminine but sporty.

• The North Face Addyson Vest – $68

Pair it with a denim shirt or an olive-green long sleeve shirt.

• The North Face Apex Bionic Softshell jacket – $74

I own this. Order up, it runs small in my opinion. It comes in lots of colors. This one reminds me of orange shebert:

Softshells are great because they’re soft and cozy enough for lounging in a mountain lodge in yoga pants but they’re tough enough to be worn out in weather. (Not Antartica or everest weather mind you!)

• The North Face Thermoball Remix Vest (what a name) – $74

They also have it in jacket form, which looks sporty and cute.

If I were to make a purchase today, it would probably be this guy:

• The North Face Oso Fleece Hoodie -$98

All of The North Face oso and osito jackets are made of a furry fabric that is so soft to the touch. This makes me want to curl up by a fire in a mountain lodge.

I sense a mountain lodge theme going on here.

Have a great rest of your Friday! Happy shopping.
