Perhaps you’re out for a run, or just heading into the city running errands, the Men’s Class V Pathfinder Pullover from The North Face is quick-drying and stretchy, crafted from FlashDry-XD with a PFC-free DWR for a water repellent performance. With back mesh vents and high moisture-wicking properties in the fabric, the pullover is highly breathable, keeping the air flowing and moving moisture away from your skin so you stay dry, cool and fresh.
Fitted with a three-piece hood for extra warmth and protection from light rain, the hoodie features a front patch pocket with an internal mesh pocket so you can stash anything you need to stay with you. A shock cord at the hem is useful for adjusting the hoodie, whether you need to increase the air flow or lock heat in and an embroidered logo can be found on the front pocket. Wherever you’re headed, whatever you are training, take the Class V Pathfinder with you for extra protection and breathability.

The The North Face Men's Class V Pathfinder Pullover - Black has the following sustainability attributes...
Fluorinated DWR finishes make clothing waterproof by repelling water droplets. ‘PFCs’ is the broad term for all fluorocarbon chemicals, of which PFOS and PFOA are sub-groups. Different chemicals in this family have a varying number of carbon atoms, so C6 has six carbon atoms and C8 has eight. While the outdoor industry has moved away from C8 (or 'long chain') PFCs, C6 (short chain) PFCs are currently unbeatable in their waterproofing performance. They're considered less harmful to the environment than C8, but they have not been proven to be safe. PFCs are known as forever chemicals; once created they will never break down and are harmful to people and the planet. To read more about the chemistry related to PFCs, head here.
PFC-Free DWR uses alternative, biodegradable technologies that repels water from the surface of a fabric - such as Fjallraven's Greenland Wax. PFC-Free DWR coatings are water resistant enough for most daily activities, so if you don’t need a highly technical waterproof, consider a PFC-Free garment instead.
By recycling fabrics, we are not only stopping extra waste heading to landfill but also reducing the need for virgin fabrics to be created. Recycled fabrics can be anything from recycled polyester to recycled cotton and where recycled cotton is used, it's often offcuts from factory floors that would otherwise end up in landfill.
This brand ensures that the factories they use have been third party audited but are not specifically partnered with a Non-Profit Organisation. This will be either BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) or SMETA (Sedex Members Ethical Trade Audit), which are social auditing methologies and reports but are not an accreditation. This means the brand has sourced factories who have passed an audit, so their worker rights, environmental impact and social compliance is up to scratch.
