Why We Love This Deal
Now is prime time for end-of-winter savings, especially at REI. During the retailer's Member Days sale, we're seeing gear from name-brand outdoor labels like Patagonia, Fjallraven, and Kuhl get big markdowns. The North Face is also seeing especially great discounts, including products like this fleece jacket for half off.
The North Face’s Yumiori Full-Zip Jacket is usually $110, but this sale at REI takes the price down to $55. It comes in two essential colors, a navy and blue colorway seen here, along with the classic TNF black jacket. This top-rated fleece is slated as a discontinued product, so after they're gone, they're gone for good.

What Shoppers Should Know
- Material: 255 g/m2 100% recycled polyester high-pile fleece
- Fit: Standard
- Fleece Weight: Medium
- Best For: Everyday layering, multisport use, casual cold-weather wear, hiking
The Yumiori jacket is made entirely of recycled polyester high-pile fleece, with a versatile fit and medium weight that makes it super easy to layer with. You get a full-length Vislon front zipper, and for storage, there are zippered hand pockets and a zippered chest pocket. As part of the label’s Circular Design program, it’s made to be repurposed by TNF into raw materials for newer clothing, giving it a sustainable edge.
Price-wise, it doesn't get too much better than this. For example, Patagonia’s lightweight fleece jackets (like the Better Sweater or Synchilla) sit firmly above what you’ll pay for the Yumiori even at full price, landing around the $150-$170 price range. Furthermore, the Yumiori is warmer and a lot more durable than a basic box-store fleece, so for around $20 more than you'd pay for a generic fleece, you're getting extra longevity.

What Shoppers Are Saying
One shopper, who said they’re “wearing this jacket pretty much every day now,” said that it’s “warm, comfortable, and works well under a shell if needed.” Similar to other lightweight fleece jackets, the Yumiori is a great pick for the incoming season: “This coat is lightweight enough to be worn from fall through spring.”
That versatility was really the main highlight for many reviewers, like this one who said, “I literally wear this out for pretty much anything—going to the gym, running errands, pairing this down as a business casual for work, etc.”
Since this is a discontinued model, this could be your last chance to even get The North Face Yumiori Full-Zip Jacket, let alone for half off. So if you’re interested, now’s the time to pounce.
