Looking for a little extra warmth during this winter season? You might want to check out the North Face Met 5 Jacket which uses two new Polartec technologies – the Polartec Heat technology and the Polartec Power Shield. The Power Shield is actually a special fabric which utilizes Polartec Heat Technology to provide three user adjustable heating levels. The heat is generated using rechargeable lithium ion batteries and is applied on a need basis to the wearer. I can see it now.. just when you need the heat from the Met 5 Jacket, your batteries run out on you. Ha! So anyhow, if you’re interested in this jacket, be prepared to fork out $599.
