What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I reach for this when I know I’ll be working hard in the cold. It manages moisture incredibly well, and the thumbloops help keep layers from riding up. It’s lightweight but still warm enough for active ski tours or chilly morning runs."When cold weather doesn't slow our pace, we start with the FD Pro 160 Crew from The North Face. Its recycled FlashDry-Pro fabric pulls moisture away the moment we start to sweat, helping us stay warm without overheating as we skin uphill, run pre-dawn loops, or cycle through fast-paced training days. The grid-knit interior adds a touch of insulation while maintaining the airflow we need for constant movement. Flatlock seams prevent chafing under packs and midlayers, and the raglan sleeves and gusseted underarms give us the unrestricted mobility required for pole plants, speedwork, or scrambling between transitions. Integrated thumbloops simplify layering, keeping sleeves anchored while we pull on shells or gloves. For winter missions that demand dependable moisture control and streamlined comfort, the FD Pro 160 Crew is a baselayer we trust to keep us performing at full stride.
