Higher Run Wind Jacket blocks gusts on exposed trails without slowing us down
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"This jacket lives in my running pack. It’s insanely light and folds down to nothing, but still gives solid wind protection on ridgelines or breezy descents. It breathes surprisingly well too, so I don’t overheat on the move. Perfect for shoulder-season runs and alpine missions."
Built for fast efforts in unpredictable mountain conditions, The North Face Higher Run Wind Jacket delivers ultralight protection without the bulk. We reach for it when our route leads into exposed terrain or when wind chill threatens to sap our energy on high-speed descents.
Made with WindWall™ fabric, this jacket blocks wind while maintaining airflow for breathability during sustained output. A full-zip front and adjustable hood add versatility, while the entire piece packs down into its own pocket—making it a must-have for stashing in vests or hip belts. With reflective hits and a minimalist feel, it’s the kind of layer that disappears until you need it most.

Works for me!
- Size Bought:
- L
Use for mountain biking. Keeps the cold air and moisture out and warmth in. Was skeptical of the manufactures claims, but it works great.

Great looking jacket - but description reads it has thumb holes and an adjustable hood... it does not. Seems like more of a backcountry issue than a North Face problem. The North Face website does not say it has any of those features.

Extra Slim
Jacket was exactly what I needed but sadly had to return as the slim fit cut was slimmer than usual, and I have several slim fit jackets and shirts from TNF.

I used the higher run for my evening run and it is really light and worked on a windy day as well.

Excellent light protection against wind
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
- Size Bought:
- medium
Light enough to pack easily and wear when the temperatures are a bit too chilly for wearing just a t-shirt. Good wind protection and does a decent job against light rain or mist, though not water proof. I take it on day hikes in the mountains, and on public transportation, including planes. Definitely recommend.

Stellar Northface High Run Wind Jacket - Highly Recommend!
This high-quality / low-weight Northface "High Run Wind Jacket" was a phenomenal purchase! Its lightweight enough to wear anytime and of course especially works best in rain or while jogging!

I would not recommend it to a friend
It fits well, but the zipper is not smooth and it is difficult to zip it up every time.

I would buy again.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a nice, light windbreaker. Good quality as always. Fits a bit snug in the mid section but other than that, it's a great jacket. I work at a car dealership, so it's perfect for running inside and out all day long.

Running Jacket Zipper Malfunction
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I would rate this item higher if the zipper system was of better quality. During my run this AM, the zipper opened up from the bottom. Could be indicative of needing a larger size or something else. Otherwise, a great jacket to wear for long, early morning runs. Love the chest pocket. Great placement for storing the phone.
