Feels like a softshell, protects like a waterproof; this is the Apex Flex FUTURELIGHT™ Jacket. The most comfortable shell you’ll wear this season, with a soft stretch-woven face fabric, stretch-knit backer and FUTURELIGHT™ membrane to resist wind and rain alike; it’s the ultimate for hiking across the warmer months.
FUTURELIGHT™ is made with a Nanospinning process. The Nanospun fibres create Nano-level holes to allow for impressive porosity while still maintaining waterproofness, letting air move through the garment and provide more venting in the fabric than ever before. Through Nanospinning, weight, stretch, breathability, durability and construction can be adjusted, to achieve optimal activity-specific performance.

FUTURELIGHT
FUTURELIGHT™ is a new kind of technology. The North Face tapped into a production method called nanospinning, which creates nanosized fibres that allow superior air permeability while maintaining waterproofness. This revolutionary nanospining allows for variable thickness within the single piece of fabric enabling freedom of movement and softness to touch – eliminating constrictions for more movement.
Recycled
Patagonia first made a fleece from recycled plastic bottles in 1993, since then more and more brands have been ‘recycling rubbish’ to make the high-performance clothing and equipment that we all love to rely on in the outdoors. There are now many different types of materials and products made from waste that would have otherwise ended up in a landfill.
