Whether we're skiing up to a chateau for some mid-day apres or heading out to dinner in our favorite mountain town, we wear The North Face Cold Spell Cropped Down Jacket to combat the cold and shield us from the snow while adding plenty of alpine style. The DryVent 2-layer membrane sends falling flakes of snow harmlessly to the ground, keeping the 550-fill goose down dry and lofty to provide consistent warmth and insulation. The lighter-weight Heatseeker Eco insulation in the hood and underarms minimizes bulk for a refined silhouette, and multiple functional pockets offer convenient storage while we're lapping groomers at the resort.
