Cold-weather layering from The North Face’s Glacier line, this 1/4 zip fleece sits in the brand’s everyday outdoor range and competes with similar midlayers from Patagonia and Columbia. The black colourway and embroidered chest logo keep it understated enough for commuting, dog walks, or throwing on after the gym, while still feeling like proper kit rather than loungewear.

Who is this 1/4 zip fleece for?

It suits anyone who wants adjustable warmth without the bulk of a full jacket. The high neck helps cut the chill, and the half zip lets you dump heat quickly when you’re moving. A regular fit makes it easy to layer over a tee or under a shell without feeling restrictive.

  • High neck and half zip: dial in ventilation as conditions change
  • Embroidered logo: more durable than printed branding
  • Sizes XS to 2XL: covers most fits for layering
