Customer Reviews The North Face ThermoBall™ Full Zip Jacket

I was so excited about this jacket until I tried it on. While I exercise frequently, I am too fluffy/curvy, and the largest size of this jacket was very snug through the hips, especially when sitting down. I was disappointed that larger sizes weren't offered, as the fabric, style, hood, etc., were what I thought I was looking for.

I used it when I went biking and when I went for walks in pretty cold temperatures. I have the north face osito 2 fleece jacket which does keep me warm but this jacket doesn't keep me warm.

I had to return this hoodie as I wanted something warmer. The mid/high grey was a very pretty color.

Really cute but the top of the sleeves were too big

I liked the jacket but L was a little snug and the XL was too roomy in the hips and shoulder area.

I like this jacket. My only problem is that the sleeves are not long enough for me. I also think that it's really not worth the price I paid. I will not return the item, though.

I'S NOT COLD YET, BUT I HOPE WILL BE THE WORM ONE

Jacket was a good fit and seemed great. The green didn't look the same in person as online so I returned it.

I got my hoodie about 3 years ago. I agree with many that, as a stand alone jacket, it is not warm. I think as a mid-layer it works a little better, but not that great. I was really excited to get it, but was disappointed. Especially for the price. I do think it keeps the wind off and that is a plus. I have been hesitant to try another one. I thought maybe a vest to wear under your coat might be good. I'll wait for some reviews. I still like TNF! i would only recommend with stipulations.

Not warm enough for me

Very disappointed as it doesn't keep me warm. I am mystified by all the reviews that say how warm it is. It's ok for fall weather but doesn't work at all for me for winter.

This is a beautiful jacket. Extremely well made, but I am a weightlifter and can generally wear a Ladies Large, but this was about 4 inches shy of zipping. Returning and ordering an XXL. Gave it only 3 stars because of the small fit, otherwise the quality and appearance is 5 stars.

The coat is very thin.I was expecting it to be more puffer then what it was.It is a nice coat just not for very cold weather.

My husband bought me a thermoball jacket last Christmas and after a month of wearing it the stiching was unraveling so I send it back in the spring to exchange it for another one w/ the warranty. I ended up ordering the green w/purple lining but the lining showed through and made the coat look dirty, so I ended up exchanging that for a grey/silver color, I wouldn't buy a color with a dark lining, the material is to thin to not show through. I love this coat because it's so light yet warm & use as a underlayer sometimes. I'm crossing my fingers that the stiching holds out this time :) if not I'll return for something different.

Traded it back in on a heavier coat. Looked much thicker in the pic than it did when it arrived. The box it came in felt almost empty it was such a light coat. Great for layering but not for everyday use.

Nice quality but very thin and light for the price. I expected something a little heavier for $200

The quality is good but the price is way too much for no more than that it is! I won't buy this for myself but my daughter had to have it because of the label. That's spoiled children for you!

The coat is ok not best northface I've purchased was hoping it was warmer little disappointed. This coat was to replace my defective tri climate

I liked this jacket but it seemed quite small in the shoulders. I used North Faces size system but I guess it is not made for very muscular women. I am sending my Medium jacket back for a Large and hoping it will fit better.

I liked the jacket. I thought it was a little overpriced for the weight of the jacket. It was too tight to zipper for me...so I returned it. I think I could find a similar jacket for a better value

I recently purchased this jacket because it advertised great for cold weather. In reality this coat is good for in between weather but definitely not Chicago winemyers. Disappointing given the price.

I was excited to get the coat because I thought the flowers and the colors looked great, but when I received the jacket I was very disappointed in the colors. I guess I was expecting brighter colors kind like how it looked on the website. I sent the jacket back that same day.

I live in Chicago and the weather can get really cold! It's extremely fitted! So I guess it's supposed to lock in the heat! It's expensive and very cute! But as far as this weather here you'll need a longer coat! I didn't expect it to be so snug! My other north face is a medium and it was big! I'm long and skinny! So I'm always buying for my arms and this jacket should've been purchased bigger! But overall! It's a nice cozy jacket! Not coat! I hope this helps!

Thinner material than it looked in the pic.For the price it was not worth it. This hoodie ran very small.I could barely get it on--I usually wear XL womens' I would probably have to go up about two sizes,maybe three.

I used this jacket as a layer under a Gortex shell and over other layers if it was quite cold for skiing. I found although I was comfortable temperature wise??_.perfect really The jacket would be soaked when I went in for lunch. Really" wring it out" soaked and I would have to put it back on totally wet. Disgusting??_Still I was warm and comfortable once it was on but I do not understand why it was always wet. I had and used pit zips, increasing the venting unless it seemed too cold but no matter what the jacket was soaked by midday although even soaked the temperature seemed great when I was skiing. The shell seemed to also work with other jackets without this issue.
