- Is the Millerton warm enough for winter?
- It handles cold, damp weather and light snow well, but it is not a deep-winter parka. In severe cold, plan to layer a fleece or sweater underneath.
- Is it waterproof or only water-resistant?
- It uses a waterproof, breathable DryVent membrane with a water-repellent finish, so it sheds rain and wet snow. Seams and zippers are the main weak points in prolonged downpours.
- How does it fit?
- The cut is straight and roomy, designed for layering. If you are between sizes or want a trimmer look, consider sizing down.
- Does it have down or synthetic insulation?
- The Millerton uses synthetic insulation, which keeps some warmth when damp. That makes it more forgiving in wet weather than down, though less warm per weight.
- Can I use it for hiking?
- Yes for casual day hikes and winter walks. It is breathable enough for moderate activity but too warm and bulky for fast, sustained climbing.
- What is in the box?
- The jacket itself. It has zippered hand pockets and an adjustable hood; no stuff sack or extra liner is included.
- Where is the The North Face Millerton Insulated Jacket cheapest?
- At Balardi, for $248.00, as of our latest check.
