The North Face Chakal Jacket - Men's

Confident warmth and breathable waterproofing make the Chakal Jacket ideal for all-day laps

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

“I grab the Chakal Jacket when it’s cold enough that I want insulation built in. It’s warm without feeling bulky, vents well on harder runs, and the hood fits cleanly over a helmet. It’s a dependable choice for resort days when conditions change but temperatures stay low.”

When winter settles in and cold air hangs over the lift line, we want insulation we can trust without sacrificing comfort. The Chakal Jacket from The North Face is designed for resort days that start crisp and stay cold, keeping us warm and dry from the first run through the last chair. It feels dialed for steady laps, long rides on the lift, and the kind of days that reward staying out longer.

DryVent waterproof fabric seals out snow and wind while remaining breathable enough for active riding. Heatseeker insulation adds consistent warmth across the body, with lighter fill in key areas to maintain mobility. Underarm vents help regulate temperature, a helmet-compatible hood and powder skirt keep storms at bay, and thoughtful pocket placement keeps essentials secure and easy to reach.
