North Face Chakal Jacket (NF0A8H24) Mens 2027

The Men's Chakal Jacket is a ski and snowboard shell cut for skiers and riders who want freeride coverage without crossing into full alpine-touring territory. DRYVENT 2L waterproofing, a helmet-compatible hood, and alpine-pocket layouts that keep gear where you need it.

Key Features

• Seam-sealed DRYVENT 2L shell with a non-PFC DWR finish handles sustained precipitation on long resort days
• Attached, fully adjustable, helmet-compatible hood and an internal hem cinch-cord seal out storm weather
• Two alpine chest pockets with PU-coated reverse-coil zips keep skins, snacks, or a radio within reach with a pack on
• Covered secure-zip hand pockets, an internal mesh drop-in pocket, and a wrist pocket with an integrated goggle wipe handle everyday gear and fog
• Underarm venting, a snap-down powder skirt, and a ticket-attachment loop round out the resort-ready feature set

Find the Chakal Jacket at Aspen Ski and Board on Polaris Parkway in Northern Columbus, Ohio. Free shipping on orders over $50.

Fit

Ski and snowboard outerwear is designed to layer over base layers and mid-layers. When sizing, make sure you have enough room to move freely with a mid-layer underneath. Most outerwear runs true to size - check the size chart in the product description. When in doubt, size up for maximum layering room.

Waterproofing & Breathability Ratings

Waterproofing is measured in mm (e.g. 10,000mm - higher is more waterproof). Breathability is measured in g/m² (e.g. 10,000 g/m² - higher is more breathable). For ski club and resort skiing, look for a minimum of 5,000mm waterproofing. Serious all-day riders should aim for 10,000mm+.

Washing Your Outerwear

Always wash with a technical cleaner like Grangers Performance Wash, not regular detergent. Tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Re-apply a spray DWR as needed. Shop tech wash.
