Women's Lightweight Jackets

Whether you’re sitting in a subway or standing high up the side of a mountain, a lightweight women's jacket is the ideal example of versatility. We deal in extremes, and our collection is engineered to help you walk the trail without getting too warm. At The North Face, we believe in creating clothing that can handle Mother Nature’s mood.  

Ideal for milder days where you need to block blustery winds and light rain, these lightweight jackets for women keep your body temperature right where you want it. For those looking to add a bit of color, we offer everything from bold block color fields to vibrant fluorescent shades. Or, if you prefer to keep it cool and versatile, you can opt for the neutrality of blacks and grays. Think quality, practicality, and aesthetic–a jacket that truly ticks every box.

If you're wondering what to wear hiking, a breathable outer layer like a lightweight jacket is essential. These pieces are built for tough streets and treacherous terrain. 

We know that every detail counts when you're pushing boundaries. That’s why our lightweight jackets for women feature athlete-tested innovations like ThermoBall™ Eco insulation. This fabric technology allows you to stay warm even when your outer layer is wet.

For the explorer who values mobility, our lightweight jackets have a seam-sealed DryVent™ shell that is fine-tuned for harsh conditions but remains packable. Our women's light jackets are tough but don’t weigh you down.

If you need a light jacket for women that offers a bit more stretch, look for designs with four-way stretch underarm gussets that allow for unrestricted movement. Our women’s windbreakers are tailored to keep you agile, while our women’s rainwear ensures you stay dry when the weather turns. We use recycled materials across our lineup to help reduce waste, ensuring that your gear is as sustainable as it is durable. 

Whether you’re seeking the precision of our Summit Series or the everyday reliability of our classic icons, we have the right fit for you. Pair your shell with our women’s fleece for chilly mornings or browse our women’s puffer jackets when the temperature really starts to drop.  

A lightweight women's jacket from The North Face is more than just an extra layer. It’s a statement on your personal style, too. From pit-zip venting for added airflow to adjustable hoods that shield you from extreme weather, we’ve focused on the details that matter most when the clouds roll around.

Our latest women's light jackets are engineered for effortless portability, ensuring you're prepared for the extremes without the extra weight. Whether your path leads into the concrete jungle or the actual jungle, we strive to keep you comfortable no matter the setting.
