Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

perfect for nyc winter...fits nicely and looks good

This is jacket is great for the winter no matter how cold it gets! You will stay warm for sure.

Bought this parka for a trip to Iceland. It was perfect for the cold days especially with strong winds and rain. The hood covers your head, ears, and face. The cuffs hold snug on wrists to prevent wind moving up sleeves as well as holds sleeves in place without restriction. It's cozy, versatile, and stylish.

This has to be the warmest coat I have owned. Very comfortable, did return medium for next size up-was tight with sweater under. Ordered "New Taupe" which I expected to be a shade of tan but was more of an olive green.

I love this jacket - it keeps me warm during walks to and from work, and the hood blocks the wind from my face.

This product is great !!! North face is an excellent c p coat for Xtreme winters.. love it!!!

I needed this parka for subzero temperatures in the Bakken, in North Dakota. I bought the navy color and it's nice, a refreshing change from black. This parka is warm, comfortable and I love the faux fur trim on hood. The sizing seemed right to me, with not a whole lot of room to layer under it...which I did not really need to do, because it's warm. I did need several thin layers of long underwear, thermal shirt, thinner wool sweater, when the outdoor temps hit -30 degrees.

Fits great! You can tell that it is well made. Very warm. Looks stylish. Everything I wanted in a jacket!

In this cold weather this jacket is perfect I love it

My wife loved it.. as warm as the newer more popular canada goose brand but half the price! Well worth th purchase..

Love this jacket!

I live in New England and winters can be particularly cold. I love my new and stylish North Face! It's warm and keeps my protected from the wind. I especially love the hood which is designed to not blow back during a wind gust!

I love this jacket and had to buy a 2nd one since I wanted a different color. The first one I got 6 years ago and is still going strong. This jacket is the warmest jacket I've ever had and on degrees at 0 or below 0, I know I can depend on it -- rain, snow, this is the only jacket I use during the winter. I also love it that is not a short jacket and the length is well below the knees, I'm 5"6' so I guess it depends on your height.

Great jacket for everyday wear. The slim fit is great for petit figures. This jacket is relatively light and would probably be best suited for over 20 or 30 degree weather. Unfortunately, I was looking for something warmer and had to return it.

the product is really good and comfortable.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone who asks, I've had it a few weeks and I've gotten many compliments on the color, style and overall appearance of the jacket. I'm not one to spend a lot on anything but this was definitely worth every penny.

The jacket was exactly as described and north face quality which is a good thing.

I wear my coat is in my the cold weather.

Bought an XXL and had to return it to get an XL. It is very warm! It gets windy here in Boone and this coat is a life saver. I haven't worn it yet in the rain/snow. Overall comfortable. Sometimes the zippers are hard to do you though.

I love this coat. I needed something for the really cold weather. It's very warm & comfortable and lightweight for a heavy coat (if that makes sense). I commute all over NYC and it's been great. The pockets are warm, the inside pocket is perfect for cash, metro card, etc. The zipper is sturdy and it doesn't catch on the material like a lot of winter coats do. The hood is very warm also. I would recommend this coat!

I have not tested this for a long period of time outside but it seems super warm and the length is great. Inner cuffs keep out wind. I wish there was a waist cinch of some kind. Sizing seems about right. The fit finder recommended I get a size small even though I am a solid XS in tops and jackets of other brands. Fit is good in shoulders but I wish it were a little slimmer through bust, waist, hips on me (5'4", 112, fairly small boned and narrow hips). I'm almost considering trying an XS but not sure if I will get the shoulder movement I want. The look of the coat is great and materials seem quality.

I'm 5'11 and always have problems finding jackets with sleeves that are long enough. This coat is perfect because it has a lining in the sleeves that goes past my wrists. I usually wear a medium to large coat and purchased a large. It feels great. Without many layers underneath it's very roomy. When I have layers on it's a bit tight in the shoulders but nothing that's unexpected. The length comes halfway to knee. I live in upstate New York and this coat keeps me very warm. I really wanted the gray but it was sold out and ended up with the navy which I do like. My only con would be that the hood is pretty small and fits just over my head. If I'm wearing a hat I can't pull the hood over comfortably. Overall I would recommend this coat and would purchase again.

It was a nice, warm coat. I'm just not a fan of winter coats in general because I always feel huge in them...But this is a good coat.

I love this jacket. Keeps me very warm. Also very stylish and fitting.
