The North Face Men's Papsura FUTURELIGHT™ Jacket

The North Face Men's Papsura FUTURELIGHT™ Jacket

FUTURELIGHT™ is The North Face's most significant proprietary waterproof-breathable innovation — a nanospun membrane technology that delivers a level of breathability previously impossible in a fully weatherproof shell, engineered through years of summit-level field testing at the highest and most demanding environments on earth. Named after Papsura — the 6,451-metre peak in the Indian Himalayas known to mountaineers as the Peak of Evil for its notoriously severe and technically unforgiving conditions — this jacket carries both the ambition and the humility of a brand that names its most advanced performance pieces after the mountains that test them most severely. To wear the Papsura FUTURELIGHT™ is to wear the answer to a question the mountain asked first.

Styling Tips

The Papsura FUTURELIGHT™ was built for the summit and performs best when the full mountain system is beneath it — over a premium down or synthetic mid-layer and a high-performance moisture-wicking base for the complete high-altitude performance system that FUTURELIGHT™ was engineered to complete, or wear as a technical shell over a heavyweight fleece with dark performance trousers and approach shoes or technical boots for a high-capability mountain-to-trail look that carries The North Face's most advanced weatherproof technology with the authority and considered performance presence it completely deserves.
