If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your mid-layer game, this might be it. The North Face Yumiori Full Zip Jacket is currently 30% off at REI, dropping the price to $69.99, and based on the avalanche of glowing reviews, it’s one of the standout bargains of the winter sales.
This cozy fleece jacket has quietly become one of REI’s highest-rated layers, pulling in a 4.8-star average from almost 100 reviews. Shoppers love the warmth and comfort, frequently calling it their “new favourite fleece” and praising the “outstanding quality” that feels great straight out of the box.
One reviewer said they reach for it “as soon as the temperature drops below 60 degrees”, while another highlighted the handy chest pocket that makes it unexpectedly practical for everyday wear.
The Yumiori uses a plush 255-gram recycled polyester fleece that hits a sweet spot between warmth and breathability. It works as a standalone layer on cool days, or you can slot it under a waterproof shell when the weather turns foul.
The full-zip design, smooth puller and trio of pockets make it more versatile than your typical casual fleece, and The North Face’s Circular Design approach means it’s made for easier recycling when you’re finally done with it.
This is a fleece, not a wind shell. A handful of reviewers noted that strong wind cuts through it, so pairing it with a waterproof shell on breezy days is still the way to go. Otherwise, comfort and warmth get near-universal praise.
If you want a reliable, warm, well-built fleece that works for town walks, morning commutes and hiking days alike, this is an excellent time to jump in. At 30% off, sizes will vanish quickly, and REI lists the offer as ending December 2, so it’s worth grabbing before stock dips.
