I used this as my hiking outerwear. The cuffs are worn and the color has faded. Please check the photos to assess the condition. There are no issues with its use. I think this is an easy-to-use jacket because you can ventilate it with the vents even when it gets hot, allowing for adjustments. I had the right elbow repaired at a The North Face authorized store because I snagged it. (See photo 5, right elbow) Overall, it's in good condition and I think you can still use it from now on. This is a used item that has been inspected by an amateur, so please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned. No returns or refunds after purchase. From the website: This is stretch active insulation developed for continuous wear as outerwear. It uses a 2-layer Hyvent stretch material with waterproof and breathable properties, and features a seamless seam sealing process using overlapping bonding. The inner lining incorporates Ventrix technology, which automatically controls ventilation and heat retention according to body movement, demonstrating functionality that does not hinder the garment's elasticity. The front uses a water-resistant Aquaguard zipper to enhance waterproofness, and pockets are placed in a position that reduces interference when wearing a harness, improving convenience during activities. The hood and hem are sealed to pursue simplicity while also pursuing ease of use.
