I own at least 4 Northface coats or jackets. I ordered my usual size even though I've lost some weight. I've read all the reviews. None of them said anything specific about it running small and nothing was said about it being a contour fit so I ordered the size I always ordered. When I got it, I tried it on and I couldn't even close enough to zip it. No way Jose could I wear this, I'm very disappointed. The color is nice. The material is nice. It looks nice but none of the reviews. Nothing in the description made me think that it wouldn't fit like this & I say I own at least 4 Northface jackets. I Sent it back within the hour I received it.
I purchased the coat for cold weather. It keeps me warm even the below 0 temperatures. My grandson and I sledded for hours. Recently I fell and the coat was stained with an oily stain as I was filling my gas tank. With a bit of soaking with Dawn Dish soap, the stain was removed. The coat washed well and dried well. It looks like new!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Delivered on time. My daughter really loves it. I would order again.
Love the color and keeps me warm!
I recently got my hands on The North Face jacket, and I have to say, it lives up to its reputation. This jacket is a true blend of style, comfort, and functionality. The material is both durable and lightweight, which makes it perfect for various outdoor activities. Overall, The North Face jacket is an excellent investment for anyone in need of reliable, stylish outerwear. Its high performance in harsh weather conditions and thoughtful design make it a standout choice for outdoor enthusiasts and city dwellers alike.
I really appreciate the warmth, material, and overall design of the jacket, but there's one issue that makes it uncomfortable to wear. The neck area has a wired fit, which causes the zipper to constantly dig into my neck. Additionally, the zipper itself is quite stiff. It's disappointing because the jacket is otherwise well-made and cozy. I would recommend adjusting the neck fit to make it more snug and prevent the zipper from irritating the skin. Unfortunately, due to this issue, I had to return it.
This is an awesome coat that looks great and is very functional. It very adeptly handles the harsh winds, cold temps, and winter precipitation and has a hood for added protection against rain/wind/snow/cold. Originally we ordered a size M and had to swap it out for a size L - just be warned that it fits a bit small and has a tapered snug fit, so you may have to go a size or two larger to have it fit comfortably. Overall this was an excellent purchase and I highly recommend it.
I bought the Womens Aconcagua 3 Hoodie jacket in black for my United Kingdom and Southern Ireland trip last October. I needed a lined jacket that was wind and water resistant; it was cold and rainy almost the entire trip, and this jacket performed beautifully. I bought this jacket in Large--I usually wear a 10 top, but needed to be able to layer. For reference, I'm 5'7" and 158#.

I have always bought black jackets that were one, probably two sizes larger than I needed them to be. I wore my last jacket for eleven years. It was time to buy another. I was going to buy the black version of this coat in an extra-large size, but somehow I ended up buying this gorgeous blue coat in a size that mostly fit my body. I'm so glad I did. It brightens up my choices for other clothes. I can feel my steps quicken and my mouth smile when I wear it. 10/10 recommend
It's a nice jacket, mid-weight without the bulk, and has a nice cut. I'm 5'2" and 115 lbs and got a medium so I could wear a thick sweater underneath. I ended up returning the jacket because it's not 100% down, which made it less warm. Also, the NF logo is ironed on instead of embroidered. I've owned the Transit parka and Aconcagua jacket for 15 years now and wanted a replacement for them. I feel NF jackets does not have the quality and detail as the older jackets.
