I ordered my North Face Denali jacket from Zappos.com at 10:00 P.M. and received it the next morning at 10:00 A.M. I could not believe it! I was thrilled with the service and I am absolutely in love with my jacket. I could not find the color I wanted anywhere else. I will definitely be doing business with Zappos in the future!

I ordered the ivory and they are precious. Zappos got them to me before the shipping date as noted. The boots are warm and very comfortable. Until my crocs I ordered for houseshoes arrived, I wore these around. We recently actually has some snow and freezing temps. They kepty my feet warm and dry. I wear and 8 and ordered an 8. I like wearing socks, so I have a medium thickness sock and they are perfect, maybe even a little loose. I have narrow feet. Thanks Zappos. Only question I have is that the photo on the North Face page shows this color combo as having a more grayish brown tinge. Wondering if that is just photo.

Reviewer: Rocket J from SE Wisconsin

Overall:

The perfect winter coat. I've been looking forever to find a down coat/jacket that isn't too bulky or heavy, but still offers premium down warmth. TNF Transit is a winner. I'm 5'4" & 150 lbs, and the medium fits me perfectly with room for layers underneath. The length hits just above mid-thigh and, while it covers my behind, it is not too long and doesn't look or feel like a tent! The material is soft and lightweight, so it's easy to move around in, and easy to slide on and off. My favorite part is the two-way front zipper which allows adjustment when sitting and driving, or for actively running with the dog. The snap front storm flap also provides an extra barrier against the cold Wisconsin winter wind. The removable hood allows you to make it look a little dressier for work or just around town.

Overall:

I have had these boots for two seasons, just starting my third. I love them and wouldn't trade them for anything. They are the perfect boots to keep by the back door to go out with the dogs at a moment's notice. They slip on and off easily. The are very warm and snuggly. They are lightweight, so they are comfortable to wear on a nice walk around town. They keep your feet nice and warm and dry. They will soak through after a while if you go through too many puddles or slush, but they stay dry for quite a while.

Overall:

I have a black short North Face coat that I have loved for 3 years now (doesn't show any wear). I was thinking that I wanted something longer for our MN winters so I ordered this coat in the grey. I originally ordered a Large like my short coat, but it was too big, and reordered a Med. which fits perfectly. The color of the coat is amazing; it's almost a satin look to it, and really a deep grey, so it's almost black. I love the color. Thank you Zappos for the quick service.

My daughter purchased this jacket several months ago & really liked it. Fit her true to size & very warm. My son decided to purchase one for his girlfriend (Christmas), (via mom). I will follow up with a great review once his girlfriend receives the jacket herself.

Overall:

I bought one pair (green) last year when we moved to SLC, at the beginning of winter for wearing around town. They are so warm and snuggly, without being too hot. Not much support, not for hiking. These are my favorite apres ski boots. I bought a second pair in brown at the end of the season. They are waterproof to about halfway up the shaft. I tested this when I accidentally stepped off a curb into melted slushy snow and still had dry feet! My daughter has the kids version. Love these boots. I want them in black!

These are my favorites of down booties. I like the mule design and for some reason, it\'s hard to get in down. I used to wear the Sierra Designs version, but for the last 2-3 years I haven\'t been able to find them. These are a perfect replacement and cuter!

Overall:

This is the most fabulous coat ever! I absolutely love it. The gray color is actually a pewter-silver with a bit of sheen. It is totally cool and unexpected. I love the fit. There is plenty of room for layering. The hood is detachable, which I didn't notice when I ordered it. This is a great coat and I am sure I will be enjoying it for a long time. I've already talked my best friend into ordering one for herself!

Overall:

I was looking for a warm set of boots to get me through a Wisconsin winter. I debated for a while between these and Sorel's Joan of Arctic boots, so ended up ordering both. Like others reported, these boots felt great right away with no weird hard ridges or seams. However, in the end I felt the Sorel's seemed more waterproof with the rubber bottoms and slightly warmer. If you are looking for a comfortable boot for winters with casual street walking, these are it. However, if you are looking for some snow-romping, blizzard-wearing boots, I might consider another pair.

Reviewer: Sue from Placerville, CA

Overall:

I really like these shoes, they are so cute and waterproof! They are very comfortable on the back of your calves, too (unlike my serviceable Sorels). I really like the detail seams on the toe and the back strap from the heel. Even though other writers mentioned needing a larger size, I didn't. I am an 8 1/2 in all dress and sport shoes and the 8 1/2 is a great fit. The write up on the shoes does state that they come with rawhide laces and mine did not, but that is fine with me. I also like the fact that they are not a "clunky" shoe. They are very pretty!

Overall:

These feel great, but unfortunately they quickly show signs of wear even though I take great care with them. The outer layer of the shoelaces shred and unravel to the inner cord. The rubber around the front of the shoes becomes detached from the suede. I expected a more durable construction from a company like North Face.

I LOVE THESE BOOTS! They are very very warm and comfortable. I would typically buy a cheaper pair of boots for the season, and end up disappointed because they weren't warm or truly waterproof. I didn't realize what I was missing. I walk a lot and when I wear these, I hardly notice the cold. They are perfect for cold Chicago winters.

I\'ve been wearing my Sanita:Pita Oil shoes for about a month now and I am soo pleased! I\'ve worn Danskos for many, many years and this time around I could not find one that filled both my fit and style requirements. :( My desperate searching for clog-style shoes brought me to the Sanita. They are so similar to Dansko I might not have been able to tell the difference had I not known. The arch support is superior, even to Dansko, and the toe box is wonderfully roomy. They are a perfect fit from toe to heel and the width is exactly medium. I\'m a basic size 9 and after a day or two of some tightness they loosened up perfectly. I can wear them with jeans or skirts and have gotten many compliments. Perfect business casual shoes! I will buy more of the Sanita line and probably soon! Thanks to Zappos for the BEST on line shopping experience hands down!

Overall:

I purchased the North Face down coat for my daughter to wear when she supervises her students during outside recess. She lives in "lake effect snow" territory, so it\'s perfect. It\'s also quite stylish, so she can wear it to more than the playground. North Face is a quality brand and Zappos is a 10 for customer service. I never worry about selecting the right size because if it doesn\'t fit I can return it which is such an easy process at Zappos.

Overall:

I bought this jacket this year and have been wearing it so far in DC for fall and early winter, mostly weather in the 30s or 40s so far. It's extremely comfortable and stylish. Love it! Whether I am heading to the office or walking the dog, I wear it almost every day! I have it in vintage white. The white does get dirty more easily, but I am planning to wash it soon. I hear you have to tumble / air dry properly in the dryer using tennis balls to fluff the down back up. A friend who has done it many times with other down items will help me with that. The vintage white is a great color, very stylish for winter. I am 5'3", curvy and a size 8, and the Medium fits me very comfortably, perfectly for shoulder and sleeves. Somehow TNF cuts their jackets so that whether you are 5'2" or 5'7", the sleeves still work for the person! I also own TNF's Triple C full length coat and love that, but I will probably need that one for colder, windier days now (when my legs get colder).

Overall:

This is a great winter coat. I bought it last year from a local store. It's very light and actually quite stylish given its length (not frumpy like the photo), and quite warm. In fact, I loved it so much I kind of wore it around every day last winter, ignoring my other winter coats. Wore it with layers to Obama inauguration in January (which was around 15 degrees most of the day) and it kept me nice and warm. I always find the few inches between the top of the knee and where my boots end always get really cold very fast with most winter coats; with this coat, with its full length, you stay warm and toasty all over! I loved it so much I ordered a second one for my mom.

Overall:

The photo of the louie blue is true to life. It is "cookie monster" blue. I like it. The vest is soft, lightweight and warm, but meant for cool days not cold. I'm 5'6" and not long waisted and this vest was just barely long enough for me. It is right at the top of my jeans in the front and the back is a bit longer. Would be great for a shorter or short waisted person. Tall gals should steer clear. I do like it. It would be ideal if it were about an inch or two longer in the torso.

Reviewer: Thelma L from san antonio , texas

Overall:

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.

Overall:

It\'s a good shoe overall with the exception of one thing. I\'ve had these shoes for a little less than a year and already they fell apart. I did take them on frequent day hikes up the mountains, but still they shouldn\'t fall apart in less than a year. Bottom line: If you want to keep these shoes longer than a year, then stay on paved trails and baby them. Otherwise don\'t get them. Also keep in mind that this shoe is made with recycled materials.
