Customer Reviews The North Face Miss Metro Parka

Love this coat, it is more for "medium" cold if that makes sense (good for 20-40 degrees but I would want something heavier in the tens or the negatives). It is ok in wind but it could be better as far as waterproofing - I wore this coat waiting for the Patriots Super Bowl Parade this year and it soaked through with the snow/rain mix after about an hour and a half. But for milder winter days this coat is really great and the length helps fend off the cold. I really wish this coat had an interior pocket to store things in so that I can keep my hands in the pocket. Overall, great quality, not amazing waterproofing, wish it had an interior pocket.

I ordered it when it was on sale. It's light and warm enough. It fits nicely and looks nice. I'm 5'5" and in between a Med and large. I'm 124 lbs. the Med looks better on than the large but the large is roomy. The material is very nice, not shiny which I hate. Overall a good quality. I only wish companies would go back to having buttons or snaps in addition to a zipper.

I live in Edmonton Canada and our winters are very harsh, so I was searching for a very warm coat, a longer down-filled coat with a hood. The miss metro has a nice design and I like the navy color. I wish they had an XXS size since I feel that it runs bigger than what an XS usually is. The sleeves are a little long too. That said, it's warm and I'll be wearing it regardless.

Great coat

Even though it's not warm enough for me for when the temperature goes down to 30 with windchills, this coat is still awesome for other cold weather. I would highly recommend if you are not always trying to find something warmer.

Very good

fit is a little snug but adequate; -I'm very busty... love the slimming pattern and length. I am 5"2 and sleeves are perfect length... could be too short for a taller women. seems very warm; hoping it's perfect for Jan. in Park City...

Good quality warm jacket

Very Comfortable. Not a very cold winter type jacket.

I love all North Face products, they are very durable with good workmanship!!! Bought online and in store, for myself as well as gifts.

well made, quality coat. loved the stitching and the warmth. a little too bulky for me, though. fit was ok, a little snug, even though sleeves seemed long. overall a really nice coat...I decided on the metropolis style instead. just worked better for me would buy northface again!

Great coat! Fits great! However not warm enough for very cold Chicago weather.

This parka is everything it describes. I bought it in the grey and absolutely love it -- its definitely my go to. I was a little worried about the sizing (I have read many reviews saying that it runs small, but not the case at all). I was pleasantly surprised by its size and fit. Great length, very warm, and moves with my body. Super happy with the purchase. I only gave it 4 stars because of some of its features. I would of loved if the sleeves were a little longer or if it had warmers inside.

I'm 5'9 and 135 pounds so I ordered a large for the length factor but it is just way to wide. I look like I gained 50 pounds once I put it one, so I need to exchange for a medium! Overall though I really like the coat and can't wait to get my size right so I can actually wear it!

This coat is really lightweight and fashionable, yet still really warm. I live in Michigan and wear it outside walking my dog and running errands. It's fashionable and not bulky, but does run slightly big. I may have been able to get the next size down. I'm usually a size 2 and find that I'm between the S and XS. The only thing I don't love is the hood, it's a little small. I would prefer if the hood came around the face more to block the wind better. Overall, I love the coat and would definitely recommend it.

Great for the cold weather of Wisconsin. Lightweight and easy to pack.

I absolutely love this coat! I was initially concerned at the thinness of it, because I have had puffier coats in the past, and wasn't sure if it would be thick enough. But it's insulated VERY well and was so essential for keeping me warm in recent 7-degree temps. It's also very soft! Would definitely recommend it to others.

I got this just in time for the coldest day of the year in MI. It looks good, feels good... If I had one minor complaint I would like for the sleeves to be a tiny bit longer, but it's so minimal I don't think twice about it.

I'm a west coast resident but bought this jacket because I travel to NYC frequently for work and I'd been eyeing this style for a while and it went on sale. I can't review the warmth factor for "real winter" since I didn't get it in time for my most recent trip. I wore it out in San Francisco in mid-50s weather and I was perfectly warm without feeling sweaty or stuffy, and the jacket felt great and lightweight and not like a heavy parka. The jacket looks great. I got the dark graphite color and it's like a matte finish, not a shiny finish. I'm a pretty natural medium in sizing and this is almost a bit too loose for my liking. I justify keeping the M because I'll probably be wearing layers in NYC and if I went down a size it'd be too tight around the arms (reaching) and bust. The hood is removable and the jacket falls mid-thigh for me (I'm 5'8"). One thing I'm disappointed in is that there's no inner pocket for a phone, etc.

The interior lining of this jacket is beautiful!

This is the best winter coat I have ever purchased! It is super light weight but still keeps you warm!!!

This coat is awesome! I just bought it for Christmas and I can't take it off (even though it's not even cold yet in Boston weirdly enough). It's so comfy and warm and fits perfectly. I'm 5'4" 125 lbs and I bought a small, nervous it would fit kind of tight but it doesn't! I'm glad I went with it. I also bought the charcoal grey color and absolutely fell in love with it. It's not too dark but not too light either. If you're looking for a well fitting coat that doesn't make you look like the abdominal snowman (we've all been there, not cute), then this is it!

It is very light. haven't wear it yet hold it stands up to NY cold weather...

Was disappointed to have to return the coat for a larger size as the arm/chest/shoulder area runs small. I like to wear layers of clothing underneath but there isn't room to do this unless you order a size up.

This coat is very stylish and I love that it is not shiny. The coat is extremely warm. My only complaint is that I wish the sleeves were longer but I have very long arms. It would be cool if North Face began to put sleeves with hold thumbs inside of their coats like Lola has. That way even if the sleeves on the coat are a bit short, the inner shell is good.
