Synthetic insulation for durable, lightweight and compressible warmth.
HEATSEEKER™
About the technology
Proprietary to The North Face, Heatseeker™ insulation is a continuous synthetic filament that traps heat in small spaces between the fibres.
As a non-down synthetic alternative, it is part of the polyester family and delivers optimal insulation even when wet.
Heatseeker delivers superior levels of performance for warmth, breathability and durability.
