Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Bought this coat a couple of years ago and really love it but I just ordered this updated version because the velcro on the older one is just too darn annoying. Wanted to also order the Shelby parka but when I saw it too had velcro had to pass. Hoping this updated version is just as nice but better with the snaps on the placket.

I have purchased three of these. I love it. It keeps me warm, water resistant, and somewhat wind resistant too.

Very warm and comfortable. Worth every penny.

Love this coat! Worth the cost. The coat keeps my torso & thigh are warm as it's quite long.

I love the fit, warmth, how the hood fits, waterproof. It's a terrific coat!

Perfect item for cold winter days. I can wear a shirt and just the coat and be completely warm. I love the length. I love the added details of the thumb insert in the sleeve, really helps keep your hand warm when not wearing gloves.

I'm 5 foot 8 inches tall and LOVE this coat! The sleeves are a great length and the coat is super warm. The green color is vibrant and I appreciate the zipper moves both ways so you don't have to unzip it fully to sit down. The outside pockets zip closed I do wish the interior pocket came with a closure. I highly recommend this coat if you live in a place that gets tough winters.

Dream winter jacket. It's exactly what I was hoping for! Sleek, stylish, warm.

Fits pretty true to size, a little roomier for extra layers if needed. Perfect length and warmth. Fur snaps off for washing.

Got it for my fiance. Did a lot of research on this Parka and competitors. Landed with NorthFace. My favorite aspect is that this is water proof (not just resistant), durable, and warm. Looks great. Hoody can be detached, fur can be detached. My fiance loves that the parka comes down to mid thigh for warmth. Price point is reasonable. Would recommend.

I absolutely love this coat! It is warm & comfortable to wear. It is light weight & great to wear in any kind of weather. I love that the hood fits over other comfy hat to wear underneath. I will definitely buy this in other colors.

It is very warm and stylish jacket. As a person coming from tropical climate, I am very sensitive to cold. The jacket has been a great purchase.

I love this coat! It fits well. It looks great and keeps me warm even with a sleeveless shirt inside. So happy. I'd like to buy another in black and navy. I bought the green and just love it. Very happy with my coat.

Perfect color. Perfect fit. Perfect warmth. I'd buy again in a heart beat. Love everything about this coat. Living in the northeast it has made my winter walks perfect - and stylish too! Inner pocket is a lifesaver for errands.

Warm! Hands down one of the warmest coats I own. Great protection against the cold nights and windy walks. Love the color and the fur trim. My new favorite for 2024!.

Wore this in Prague. I'm 5'2 -125 - size small fits perfectly and I was really warm but not too warm and it kept me dry in the rain

My favorite! Always soooo warm!

My granddaughter loves it

Keeps you warm. Wind and water resistant

I loved it my favorite color red. It keeps me warm in the cold winter in New York. I loved this one because it has buttons instead of the velcro of the old parka.

I love the color of this. I usually get medium in Northface but with this I got a small I went around and tried on this jacket in store before purchasing online.

My daughter is 5'10" 140lbs and I originally ordered her a size medium that I had to exchange for a size small. She's not a fan of the faux fur and that was very easy to remove just with the zipper

I ordered a M and it has room for a thick jacket underneath with still a bit of wiggle room. If you don't need to layer anything underneath, then I would say this runs a tad big. Im 5'3, 145lbs, I usually wear a M or 6/8 on regular clothes. This came down below my knees. It's not too heavy in weight, used to wear heavy wool coats and parkas I would end up with a headache from the jacket's weight. That's why I switched to this. I was looking for a very warm jacket for northeastern winters that is not too heavy. I purchased the wild ginger color. It's not too bad but I expected it to be a bit darker. Instead it kind of has a faded look to it.

I wear size 1x-2x but order size 3x and it perfect fit to me.

I bought this Parka to my mom is her first time in United States (first winter in her life), and I'm located very to the north of United States so is very cold. And my mom is not even complaining about cold. So people who read this review the coat is super good, warm, fit perfect (depending on your amount of layers), not to heavy, waterproof, windproof. Go ahead and buy it.
