The North Face

Willow Stretch 1/2-Zip Jacket - Women's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"When I’m moving fast on a breezy summit trail or heading out for a quick climb after work, I reach for the Willow Stretch ½ Zip. It breathes well, blocks wind, and stretches with me when I need to scramble."

Whether we're chasing early-morning switchbacks or sneaking in one more lap before sunset, the Willow Stretch ½ Zip from The North Face is our go-to layer for lightweight protection and comfort. Designed with mobility in mind, this pullover offers the coverage we need without slowing us down.

The WindWall ripstop fabric is both wind-resistant and stretchy, making it ideal for high-output hikes, light trail runs, or breezy crag days. A non-PFC DWR finish adds light water repellency, and the half-zip front lets us dump heat when things heat up. With a kangaroo pocket to warm our hands or stash small essentials, this layer moves seamlessly between urban walks and trail transitions.
