The North Face Aconcagua 3 Jacket

The North Face Aconcagua 3 Jacket is a lightweight synthetic insulated layer designed for outdoor adventures. As part of the men’s outdoor clothing range, this puff jacket offers warmth without bulk and is intended for use as a mid-layer or standalone piece when temperatures drop or weather turns damp.

Constructed from 100% recycled polyester, the Aconcagua 3 features a regular fit that allows room for movement and easy layering. Its synthetic fill retains loft and warmth even if it gets wet, while the PFC-free DWR (durable water repellent) finish helps shed light moisture on drizzly days. Weighing 1.69 kg, it strikes a balance between insulation and packability, and its simple design without a hood makes it easy to layer under a shell or stow in your pack.

DWR stands for durable water repellent, a surface treatment that causes water to bead up and roll off the fabric instead of absorbing in. The PFC-free designation means this treatment avoids perfluorinated chemicals, reducing environmental impact while still offering reliable resistance to light rain and snow.
