Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Great fit, and super warm. Went outside in 0 degree weather today and wasn't even cold. Best Christmas gift this year!

5'9" bigger chest. Fell in love with this in store and didn't get it because I already had it in black. Ended up coming home and ordering it online a few days later and I do not regret it. I have the black in a XXL so I can layer up for the cold Maine winters. I got the gardenia in a XL so it's a little more snug but I can still have a layer or two underneath.

Bought this for my wife for Christmas so she had a versatile winter coat for dressing down or dressing up for work. It is so soft and comfortable she didn't want to take it off. I'm sure this will last as the quality seems great and the comfort and warmth are unbeatable!

Bought this for my mom. It keeps her do warm and is very flattering on her. Win

Absolute favorite winter coat. Keeps me toasty and comfortable in the snow, wind, and freezing temps in the Rockies.

I use for everyday use, and it is so warm, comfortable and fits just right.

Got this Parka for the freezing Illinois weather that Im not used to because I used to live in sunny California. I needed something incredibly warm. I had a hard time deciding what size to get. I was torn between the large and the medium. I like to wear sweatshirts under my coats and I was worried a medium would not give me enough room for layers. But I'm glad I ended up getting the medium because it gave me plenty of room to Layer. I'm 5'7 and 150 pounds and a medium was perfect. The parka is so comfy and warm.

it is great coat. Purchased for my mother, but returned and ordered bigger size. If you are between sizes- go up. Never receiver refund though.

Gorgeous jacket!

I loved my coat it's warm waterproof

Extremely warm and true to fit size.

I bought this coat for my daughter who lives in Minnesota. Shortly after receiving it, she experienced close to 20 inches of snow. She was elated that the coat was not only warm but said that the snow simply wicked off of the material!!

Excellent warmth Let you even in the cold winter can also brave the cold and walk on the cutting edge of fashion

The material is comfortable and extremely warm Walking on the street is definitely the most fashionable coat

My wife loves this parka! Very warm and stylish.

Tried and true...Northface never disappoints!!

Cool jacket ever! I like it so warm and comfy I gonna buy the same one for my friend as a gift too.

I love this stylish jacket! It's both beautiful and warm.

Absolutely gorgeous, durable and comfortable jacket. So happy I got it in time for my trip to UK in olive green instead of black. I tried a black one in the store and the fabric looked like it would pick up every fiber. Great fit, true to size, feels nice and snug. I ordered medium. Length is perfect for my 5'5" height and 130lbs weight. I saw many negative reviews about hood however I love it. Warm enough around your head without need for hat in case you want to keep your hair style. I was almost tempted to purchase a very expensive Goose Canada and so glad I didn't.

I bought this jacket to wear while photographing wildlife during the winter. I was in freezing temperatures and it kept me more than warm. The pockets are nice and deep. I love this jacket, it has done it's job and I know I'll have it for years to come - it's that well made!

This parka is everything you need. It's comfortable, lightweight, and most importantly, it keeps me warm!! (I hate being cold). For reference I am 5'0" tall, and weigh 145 lbs. I got the medium and it fits perfectly. I can even wear it with a sweater underneath and it doesn't make me feel like a stuffed burrito. I highly recommend it. North Face is the best!

This coat is made of good quality!! Love it.

I love this coat!. I really like the style. It's both streamlined and warm. The quilting is inside, so you can avoid the 'puffer-look'. This coat could be worn both a trip to NYC or during a winter sporting activity. It's that versatile. The hood is a good size, but not obtrusive. The length is great for a coat. I ordered both a S and an M. I am a size 6-8 and a Small in LL Bean. However, I'm definitely not a Small in this coat (5'7" & 130 lbs). The S is going back. The M fits well, but was only available in a beautiful steel grey. I just look better in black, so that's going back too. Will look for the black in M from another source. My only comparative issue is the outer fabric was a slightly stiffer than than the Marmott Chelsea, but not significant enough to make me want a different coat. Color in my size was my only issue.

I love this coat!. I really like the style. It's both streamlined and warm. The quilting is inside, so you can avoid the 'puffer-look'. This coat could be worn both a trip to NYC or during a winter sporting activity. It's that versatile. Some have complained about the velcro closures (vs. snaps) TNF has on the zipper flap. I love them! Easy to use, essentially closes itself and does not snag anything. The hood is a normal size, useful, but unobtrusive. I ordered both a S and an M. I am a size 6-8 and a small in LL Bean. However, I'm definitely a Medium in this coat. (5'7" & 130 lbs). The S is going back. And the M was not available in black. I ordered a beauitiful steel grey color, but still think black looks best on me, so it's going back, too. Will look elsewhere for this coat in M in black.

I have only had the coat for a few weeks, but I love it and would not purchase anything different in the future. I wish it had a few more pockets, but otherwise it is perfect! Kept me warm during a Gale warning on Lake Superior and stood up to the winds while watching the waves crash. 12/10 would recommend this jacket to anyone.
