For the first time ever, The North Face managed to add air permeability to a waterproof membrane. Unlike conventional membranes, the nano structure of the FUTURELIGHT™ membrane allows air to pass through for better venting and breathability without sacrificing waterproofness and durability.
This new nano-fiber structure has enabled The North Face to create the most lightweight, breathable membrane to date. An ultra-thin, nimble garment that feels just as comfortable and provides the protection needed against the elements in the harshest environments.
