The North Face Superhype Gore-Tex Active Jacket – Review

THE NORTH FACE Superhype GORE-TEX® Active Jacket

The Northface Superhype Goretex Active Jacket is a lightweight waterproof shell aimed at walkers and hikers and is unusual in that it uses the latest Gore-Tex Active fabric rather than The Northfaces own
Hyvent material

Although this jacket is aimed at walkers and hikers it had all the features I was looking for in a running jacket so I thought I would give it a go.

To be honest I like the jacket a lot.
