Is this jacket actually waterproof?

Yes. It uses The North Face DRYVENT 2L waterproof membrane in the outer shell, which keeps rain and snowmelt out while letting some moisture escape.

It is insulated with 100% polyester synthetic fill, enough for cold wind and winter temperatures with a midlayer underneath. It is not a deep-cold parka.

The listed features do not name a hood, so check the product images before buying if a hood matters to you.

It is a men's cut with a 29-inch center back length, so it sits around the hips. The hem drawcord and elastic cuffs let you tighten the fit.

How does it compare with a down jacket?

Synthetic fill keeps insulating when damp, which down does not, but it is heavier and bulkier for the same warmth. For wet, cold trips the synthetic shell jacket is the safer pick.

What comes in the box?

One men's outdoor waterproof warm jacket. Nothing else is included.

Our take on the Built for Wind & Rain | Men's Waterproof Insulated Outdoor Jacket

A men's waterproof, insulated outdoor jacket from The North Face built on a DRYVENT 2L shell with synthetic polyester insulation and a recycled polyester taffeta lining. It has secure-zip hand pockets, encased-elastic cuffs and an internal drawcord at the hem, with a 29-inch center back length that covers the hips. It suits hikers, campers and winter commuters who want one jacket for cold wind and wet weather instead of layering a shell over a puffy. Against lighter rain shells it trades packability for warmth; against down jackets it keeps working when wet but is bulkier and less warm for the weight.
