It’s warm, but…
In fact, it’s VERY warm. With the appropriate layers it’ll probably do what I bought it to do - keep me from freezing on an arctic vacation. However, I was shocked at the lack of features to adjust the fit of the jacket. It’s got a very generous cut, which is helpful for giving room for those extra layers, but I would expect a $400 jacket to have drawcords at the waist and hem and, ideally, one on the back of the hood to allow you to adjust the jacket for an ideal fit. This parka has none of those options. Older models of this product did from what I saw in online reviews. Seems bizarre that TNF chose to cheap out there.
Warm and Stylish! Must Buy!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I adore my new North Face McMurdo Parka. It is by far my most warm parka. I am from NYC and it gets very cold during the winter months. This 600 down fill in this parka is very insulating but it also feels lightweight as well. The attention to detail of this parka is incredible. The stitching is amazing, the color options are great, and it looks flattering on all body types! There is also ample pockets to store your necessities, the faux fur hood can be detached, and there is even a trusty mask that can protect your face from the wind as well! This is a must buy for anyone that lives in a cold climate!! I think this coat outperforms some of the luxury $1000+ parkas on the market right now!
Extremely Disappointed – Poor Quality and Worse CS
I had high expectations for the North Face McMurdo Parka, but this has been one of the most disappointing purchases I’ve made — both in product quality and in how North Face has handled my warranty claim. From the start, down feathers kept coming out of the inner lining, leaving my clothes covered and the insulation compromised. When the parka gets wet, it develops a musty, unpleasant odor, which is completely unacceptable for outerwear supposedly built for harsh weather. On top of that, the faux fur trim constantly sheds, even though it’s never been used or handled roughly. I reached out to North Face for support, assuming they’d stand behind their product. Instead, I’ve been met with dismissiveness and deflection. They’ve repeatedly claimed that feather loss is “normal,” despite this being a new parka. Worse, they completely ignored my concerns about the musty smell and the faux fur shedding. No resolution, no accountability — just a carefully worded brush-off that feels like gaslighting. As a first-time North Face customer, this experience has been incredibly frustrating. I expected better from a brand that markets itself as a leader in quality and performance. Instead, I’m left with an expensive parka that underperforms and a company that refuses to acknowledge obvious defects. Save your money. Look elsewhere. This isn’t the brand it used to be.
Be sure you know what you are getting into...
Less fill than previous 550 version - compared side by side. Sleeve length runs short on XL while torso becomes tent like, with no draw cord at bottom or waist. Hood has very limited adjustment and pulls down past your nose... North Face has done everything to back out cost of this once great parka. Now with recycled down of no specific quality or source, while skimping on actual fill weight. Be certain to try on in store before considering this parka.
And.. had to cut open the coat.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The material next to the inside zipper pocket got caught in the zipper. It broke the zipper. I had to literally cut through the fabric with a large knife in order to open the zipper and get my wallet and other items out of the coat pocket. The material effectively locked up the zipper. A new coat and I have to cut it up to get the pocket open. Garbage design.
Definitely recommend this Parka
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've owned this Parka for 2 years now and I can't wait for winter to wear it every year. I absolutely LOVE this Parka. It is so warm, and breaks all wind, even the coldest arctic air will not get through this jacket when buttoned up to the chin.
Warm without being bulky
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My youngest hates to be cold. We have been looking for a coat that is comfy and warm without being bulky. This coat has great pockets and has kept them warm all winter!
Amazing parka.
I have the cryos expedition gtx parka 800 from many years I wanted something new I got the McMurdo it's an amazing parka very light. -7 Celsius very warm.
Feather comes coming out within 1 month of use
Within one month of use the feathers have started coming out of the jacket. It is a brand new jacket and lint comes out of the fabric around the wrist
Not like the former versions
In no way am I trying to insult company NorthFace. I've been a customer for over 20 years. I have always praised their products. In my honest opinion, this new version isn't your best work. It feels more like a shell material this time around. I'm a big dude. 6'4 275lbs. I desire something more durable, like your previous version of the McMurdo. This one makes me feel like I need to be extra careful not to snag it on something every time I move. The Velcro seems so weak. I hope in the future, you'll recognize you had an awesome parka and revert back to the old model. I know with time comes change, but if it isn't broken...don't fix it.
