The North Face  Osito Fleece Jacket - Women's

I have other north face jackets, quarter zips and full zips. In other “standard” fitting jackets of theirs I am a medium and in the “slim” fit I am a large. I decided to order this in a medium and that was a mistake. There was no room to move around in it and the arms we almost skin tight where as the other standard fit jackets I have have a couple inches of room. Will be exchanging and hoping the large is roomier. It’s a jacket that you’re supposed to layer on top of things, it shouldn’t be this slim fitting. The fur itself is pretty soft though and I appreciate that it is both on the inside and outside of the jacket unlike the similar Patagonia jacket that has a scratching almost waterproof material on the inside.

I don’t write a lot of reviews, but this one needed to be done. I have ordered this jacket on THREE (!!!) separate occasions, believing that the one I bought before was just defective. I wanted to like this jacket so bad, but the shedding is genuinely a nightmare. I tried to stick it out all three times, washing it over and over again hoping the shedding would eventually stop. Nope. The fuzz gets on all your clothes so don’t even think about washing it with anything else. And if you anticipate taking this jacket off in public at any point, forget it. The amount of fuzz that comes off underneath is embarrassing. I’ve spent MUCH more time than I would like to admit lint rolling my clothes because of this jacket. I wasted my time so you don’t have to. Seriously, 0/10.

I bought this jacket (not at REI, sorry) on sale thinking I was just getting a good deal, but this has turned out to be one of the best buys I've ever made! Not only is it incredibly cozy, but it has kept me warm on many a freezing cold Wyoming day this winter! It has pretty much replaced my winter jacket, and I wear it everywhere. It does pill a bit, which is a bummer, but I deal with that as a trade off for the warmth. I only wish my size was available in maroon.

Warm and comfortable... but not too warm. Great for chilly mornings in the spring and fall.

One of my favorite jackets! So warm and fuzzy on both inside, arms and outside! I love that the pockets have zippers too. I love to take this jacket camping or even wear around the house! I have gray and want more colors! Definitely recommend, worth the money! High quality

No drawstring along the waistline. The sweater does run a little bit on the bigger side. Otherwise it is very comfortable. I love the plushy softness.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this soft & very comfy jacket. I have this in 4 colors! And still want more!! It's my daily go-to jacket.

So warm yet very lightweight! I wear it anytime anywhere I go. Keeps me warm in the winter.

This is lightweight yet super warm. I got it in Monterey Blue and the color is beautiful.

Very true to size and super soft material. Loved it!!
