Swallowtail Hoodie (Men's)

Nov 04, 2025

Light and easy to pack

In summary, it fits into the gaps of my luggage and is very useful when the weather is a bit chilly during my travels.

Satisfaction

I saw the staff wearing it and thought it was really nice, which piqued my interest. When I inquired about its functionality, I learned that it excels not only in design but also in practicality, which I appreciated even more. Just like the tops, I was able to purchase it with confidence and I am very satisfied.

Simple

I bought it for my son who is 170 cm tall.
He really likes it, and this is the third one in a different color.
UNIQLO has similar ones, but I still prefer the North Face logo, it looks great!
Also, the fit is just right.
I usually choose M size, but this one is a bit smaller so I went with L size.
By the way, it was smaller than UNIQLO's L size.

It's cute

The bi-color combination is cute, and I'm satisfied with it. Since it's compact, it seems like it won't take up much space in my bag?

To a windbreaker

I was quite indecisive due to the many similar products, but the fact that it can be packed into a pocket made me decide to purchase it. I keep it in my bag at all times, prepared for when I need it.

Comfortable even in mid-summer

I was looking for a jacket for riding my scooter in the summer and for wearing in air-conditioned places, and I ended up here.
It blocks the wind and even when I'm sweating, it doesn't feel uncomfortable; its thickness is just right and I'm glad I purchased it.
Being able to buy it for about 10,000 yen is a nice point too.

Time for changing clothes, wind shell season!

The M size of the swallowtail jacket I bought previously was a bit too small, so this time I got the L size for the hoodie. The color is a lighter clay gray to match the season. If new colors come out, I might want to get more. It's a proper windproof jacket, so the specs are also substantial. However, if I were to use it for everyday purposes, I might not need the hood adjuster or the hem drawcord. That made me curious about the swallowtail vent hoodie which is even 20g lighter, so I ordered it for comparison.

Gift for my mother in her 70s

There was also a women's version, but I felt that the men's one fit better if I wanted a slightly looser fit in terms of length and arm width. Above all, I really liked how light it was. Even though it is thin, just wearing one makes you feel warm, and it might be just right from early spring to before summer and in the early fall.

For walking at night

The old model was an XL size, which was one size larger, but the current model is just right in the usual L size. I re-purchased it in a lighter color for walking at night.

Even during strong sunlight like the daytime in this season, if I wear a t-shirt under it, it feels just right.

North Face review

My family (my daughter's family and my sons) wears North Face down jackets, but my husband and I had never worn them. I had thought about trying them someday, but since March 7 was our 44th wedding anniversary, I decided to buy one as a memorable gift and boldly went into the store.
Considering the timing, we didn't buy down jackets but got the swallowtail hoodie as a couple's pair.
It's very comfortable and we're happy to wear it.

Minimalist

It's been a while since I started wearing North Face jackets. The evolution jacket I bought before had become too worn out, and the zipper was often catching, so I upgraded. The swallowtail jacket I bought last year was great (for biking), but the hood was bothersome with the wind. I purchased a hoodie type for everyday use. It can be made small, so it fits in my waist pouch, and if I keep it handy, it will be useful when needed. Definitely a good purchase.

It's really stylish and convenient to wear when commuting or just going out a little bit.
I used it on a rainy day, and the water-repellent feature was good too.

Very useful in spring and autumn

It comes in handy when you want to throw something on, when you want to shield yourself from the rain, and in various scenes.
It's thin and easy to move in, so it can also be used for sports.
It's thin but durable.

It's just so light

I was looking for something thin and light that I could wear even in summer.
There is no black for ladies, so I chose men's S, but it's not too big and I can wear it without any issues.
I'm glad it can be compact as well.

Highly versatile!

I previously used wind shells from other companies, and since I wanted one for walking in the city, I bought this. I chose a slightly larger size so it won't stick even when I sweat, allowing me to layer underneath, and I think it will be useful throughout the year.

Favorite ^ ^

For size, I wanted to wear it loosely, so I bought a larger size. Honestly, I might have been fine with an XL. It might be good to check the size in-store before buying. It's generally a bit small. The comfort is exceptional! Highly recommended piece.

Good color

A jacket with a tricky fit. I was torn between XL and XXL, but I like a loose fit, so going for XXL was the right choice. Light as it may be, it can surprisingly handle light rain with ease. This color is simply the best!

It's great for throwing on in little moments, and it becomes compact in hot weather, which is quite handy. I usually wear size XL, but since the material doesn't stretch, I think going up one size is fine.
