This is an excellent
jacket all the way around.
North Face is known for high quality. It shows in the details of this
jacket. What I love is that warm hood. I always wanted a Polartec
jacket that had a hood and was of substantial quality. I have tried other Polartec
jackets, but usually were very cheaply made even though they were expensive. It seems like
womens clothing are sometimes not made as durable as men's. Manufacturers put more emphasis on style and color for women than plain quality. But this
jacket has all the girlie colors yet it really holds up like a man's
jacket in quality. It is roomy enough for a medium sweater underneath, fits comfortably as you can move around. It will last a long time because the stitching and zippers are excellent. It feels light when you wear it but is very warm, yet breathable, but keeps the cold air out from your body. A plus is that I was able to zip it under a shell I already had from
North Face and that made it super coverage for mountain
climbing or blistering winter in the country or city. This is worth the money because it will last forever. And
North Face has a lifetime warranty for it, too.
