Love this jacket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this jacket! Great color too. I'm in between sizes s/m. Got both and returned the medium. The small fits perfect with still room to layer.

Love the Jacket, disappointed in the color.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was very excited to get this jacket only to be disappointed. The fit was great, and the warmth was amazing, but the color was just off from what I ecpected. The North face Imagery made the product seem a bit more vibrate. But in reality, the Mint Green color is quite dull and pale, and in some light looks white. You can also see the darker colored feathers underneath making it look dirty and spotty. I really hope they restock some of the previous more vibrate colors, because over all it is a nice jacket!

Not worth the price

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Jackets fill started coming out. I got this jacket 15 days back and fill started to come out of shell. Did not expect this from North Face. Such a waste.

I don't recommend it! It arrived with a defect, a hole

I ordered it on September 7, 2025, and the jacket arrived with a defect. There is a hole, and I have attached a photo

Best jacket for any climate!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my new go to jacket it's so cute and stylish! Wore it skiing in Sun Valley and it was perfect and I wear it in Southern California and it's perfect so it seems to be the perfect jacket for any climate! I love it so much it's so cozy! Northface please make it in a black Sherpa or faux fur for women id love to have another one in a different fabric!

I will definitely be purchasing again in the future, for me!

I bought this coat for my 19 year old daughter. She is 5'8 140 pounds, muscular and long limbed. I got her a size small and it fits her perfectly. She is able to wear it with hoodies underneath comfortably. A medium would have fit too, but not as snug as she would have liked.

I would buy this product again and again

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I use this jacket when I go out places because it is so stylish and cute. I even have a matching North Face beanie that completes the look. It is so retro and trendy, and truly gives me that 90's vibe. I love it! It fits me perfectly and I wouldn't change anything about it.

It's so warm, so cute, so stylish

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first I was so sad that the only color I could fine on this jacket was pink. I'm so I added the pop of color. VERY WARM from San Francisco to Lake Tahoe have been 100% warm! I am 5'3", 32C about 125-130. I got the XS and it fits me just great. I always have trouble with jackets eating me because I have a smaller upper body, but this one it just the right size for me. I'm not sure I can wear a bigger hoodies inside, but definitely it fits with ticket knit sweaters. I'm extremely happy with my purchase, now I am hoping I can get my hands on a black one for everyday use :D

It was my first purchase in The North Face and definitely no

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really not used to the cold weather since I came from a tropical country, but this 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket kept me really warm and comfortable the whole time I was outdoor. Definitely worth it!
