WHAT IS A 3 IN 1 JACKET?

A 3 in 1 jacket is a combination of two jackets that can be zipped together to form one jacket. Each jacket can be worn as a separate garment or zipped together for additional warmth and protection against the elements.

3 in 1 jackets are an excellent choice for the great outdoors, offering a customisable and versatile solution that can be worn in all seasons and particularly on those days when the weather is a little more unpredictable.

WHAT MAKES UP A 3 IN 1 JACKET?

A 3 in 1 jacket typically consists of a waterproof and breathable outer jacket, also known as a shell, plus a warm, fleece-style jacket on the inside. They can be worn separately or zipped together, giving three possible configurations – perfect for changeable weather.

The outer garment worn alone is perfect for staying dry in wet conditions, and without the inner fleece, it’s warm but weather isn’t a problem. Our 3 in 1 jacket outer shells come in a range of materials and fabrics and technologies like FUTURELIGHT™ and DryVent™, which offer the best in breathability and wet weather protection. 

The inner fleece jackets have been designed to keep you warm, with optimum insulation and breathable fabrics. Worn alone, they offer a more practical alternative to a jumper, but teamed up with the outer jacket they become an integral part of your outdoor kit, whether you’re heading for a hike in the mountains or opting for a winter walk through your local countryside.

BENEFITS OF A 3 IN 1 JACKET

The main benefit of a 3 in 1 jacket is its versatility – it can adapt to suit all weather conditions when you’re out. Wear the fleece alone when it’s cool and dry, or wear the shell alone when it’s wet. If it’s cold and wet, wear both.

Another advantage of buying a 3 in 1 jacket is a cost-saving benefit; wearers can save money on buying multiple jackets suitable for different seasons by simply purchasing one jacket which can be adapted to all seasons.

All of our 3 in 1 jackets have been responsibly manufactured and designed to last, but when you’re done with them, you can drop them off at one of The North Face Retail or Outlet Stores for recycling through our Clothes the Loop Scheme.

HOW TO CHOOSE A 3 IN 1 JACKET
