Our take on the The North Face Summit Series Breithorn Down Jacket

The Summit Series Breithorn is The North Face's lightweight alpine down jacket, built for fast, cold-weather climbing and ski touring.

Its best new price is $322.50 at Backcountry.com as of November 4, 2026, with four stores listing it new.

Questions and answers

Is the Breithorn worth $322.50?
It is a specialist alpine layer, so the price buys low weight and water-resistant 800-fill down. If you climb or tour in cold, wet conditions, it earns its keep. For casual winter wear, a cheaper down jacket does the same job.
How warm is it compared with a heavier down jacket?
It is a midweight alpine piece, not a deep-winter parka. It works as an outer layer on cold, dry climbs or as a midlayer under a shell. Below about 10°F you will want more insulation.
Does it have a hood?
No. The Breithorn is a hoodless jacket, designed to layer under a hooded shell. If you want a hood, look at other Summit Series down models.
How does the slim fit run?
It runs close to the body, so most buyers size up if they plan to wear a fleece underneath. Check the size chart against your chest measurement before ordering.
Can it get wet?
The ProDown has a water-repellent treatment and the shell has a non-PFC DWR finish, so it sheds light snow and drizzle. It is not waterproof, so wear a shell in steady rain.
When is it cheapest?
Down jackets from The North Face tend to drop at end-of-season sales in late winter and spring. Watch the price history for dips below the current $322.50.
Where is the The North Face Summit Series Breithorn Down Jacket cheapest?
At Steep & Cheap, for $301.00, 30% under what the other stores charge, as of our latest check.
