Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

This jacket was one of my best purchases. I've had it for over a year. Our winter this year has been brutal with subzero temps and I have stayed warm and comfortable through it all. The quality is unmatched to any coat I've owned. Highly recommend. Also the fit is very flattering. I purchased the Olive and I love the contrast of the colors in the "fur" hood. Love love love this.

I took the faux fur collar off and it gives a clean and elegant and unadorned impression. Can handle serious cold and kept me warm. I saw it on a friend and she looked warm AND elegant and that sold me. So glad you handle xxl so I could enjoy this marvelous coat. Also glad your coats are faux fur and doesn't harm the geese. Good for you and much appreciated by your customers. I recommended it to another friend who also purchased one.

I am a teacher that has outside recess duty. This coat is perfect for the elements!! I love how it fits and keeps me very warm! It's the best coat I ever have owned.

I wear it all the time walking my dog or baby sitting and playing in the snow with the kids. I needed something warm and I just wanted to be covered its literally perfect

The jacket is super warm. Love it. I am from Michigan and this keeps me warm regardless of the cold weather (sometime even in negatives). It fits perfect and is flattering to the shape. I am 5'4, weight ranges from 115-125 lbs and XS fits me perfect. My only tiny complains is that the zipper does not always go into the double zipper from the first time. Also, because the jacket is longer, I cannot take an extremely large step.

The length is perfect with a pair of y'all boots! This jacket has kept me so warm with the polar Vortex in the Midwest currently! It's comfortable, I've received so many compliments on it. I've had 0 feathers come out of the jacket!

Needed a jacket/parka to withstand Northeast winter in NY and Boston and it did its job! Very warm, wind proof and waterproof. Love it and happy with purchase!

I usually wear a small in tops but went with the medium to have a little extra room. Even with the room to move it is still a flattering silhouette and stylish for a parka. It has been a stunning difference to wear in super cold NYC these days. For the price point I think it's the best out there and it's traceable down which is important to me.

This coat offers serious warmth for serious winter weather. I highly recommend it for commuting, dog-walking, and just being outside. Although it's very warm, it's not overly bulky.

I hadn't had a Northface winter jacket for years. I needed something warm and well made that I know will last for years. This coat fits this list. The zipper was alittle fussy the first time but not an issue since then. The sleeve cuffs are a wonderful surprise! After looking at a number of different coats, I'm extremely happy I chose Northface again! You won't be disappointed!

It was a gift and I love it

I wear it during my college commute and it does the trick! Very warm and stylish, I have gotten lots of compliments!

Very warm very good

I love this coat and am glad that I bought it one size larger. I have a larger chest and this coat in a larger size does not make me look large.

my mom love so mush

Extremely warm and comfortable without being bulky.

I decided to go with another jacket but this one was super warm. I just wanted something a little different. It was much like a coat I had a few years ago...you would be sure to be warm in this!! Thanks North Face for making it so easy to return.

I was originally gifted with a medium size in the gray, but for some reason, I felt it restricted my movement. I loved the coat and the color, but I didn't like the fit. The cinching at the waist made it difficult to bend over, and the sleeves seemed like a Chris Farley sketch/Fat Man in a Little Coat-I'm 5'7, 150 lbs., and normally wear a medium in other coats/jackets from North Face. I returned the coat to my local store and re-ordered a navy size L because North Face didn't have a larger size in the same color anywhere in the US/popular coat it seems. It's a bit big on me, and the sleeve length is longer than I like, but it's super warm so I am not concerned about the fit. Ideally, I would've liked the medium to fit, but in this case, the cut just didn't allow it for me. Will wear it until the wheels fall off.

This jacket is quite effective at blocking out wind and rain. I use it for winters in Michigan and it is amazing. For the price and the quality this jacket is one of the best on the market.

Bought this for the freezing cold winters in Michigan. It does a great job and I highly recommend it! So warm and has more of a tailored fit compared to the others.

I bought this parka to walk the dog in mid-winter weather that typically gets down in the teens (before windchill). It is slim-fitting and stylish but WARM, and surprisingly lightweight given how warm it is. The hood is amazing-I no longer need my turtle fur to protect my neck and it keeps my head, ears and neck warm. It was also a great value given how warm it is.

It keeps me warm while I take my dog for a hike!

I wear this coat in the cold Wisconsin winters.

I needed a jacket because I'm going to Alaska. So I made sure to do a lot research because if I'm going to buy something I'm not going to waste my money. I tested this jacket out while I was in the Poconose. The temperature was 3 with wind. And I didn't feel a single thing. I'm not sure how the jacket will do wet but if you're buying it for a cold windy day this jacket is perfect. I also am 5'6" and 34DD and a bit of an athletic built. So I wanted to make sure the jacket had room in the sleeves because I hate when my arms are restricted in jackets. Typically, I wear a medium or a large but I got the jacket in a XL and I'm glad I did.

I am usually an XL at TNF. Using the fit finder, it was recommended I order a size up (due to my fit preferences and carrying my weight in the belly). This proved to be the perfect size! The back seams, darting, and elastic at the high waist make for a girlish silhouette.
