Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Ordered the parka, recieved in two days. Needed a smaller size, so returned it. Customer support was super helpful and return was simple. Got smaller size parka quickly and return was also credited quickly. Zappos's is a great business.

I purchased this at the end of last year specifically for a trip to Chicago. Living in Florida, I don't need coats and think 30 degrees is freezing. I didn't have to worry about being cold at all in this. It kept me nice and warm while walking outside. There may have been ice on the ground but my body didn't feel it. I didn't have to layer underneath either. I definitely recommend this to everyone.

GIt this for my mom and she loves it, good length and style

The Women's Arctic Down Parka was the answer I needed for cold walks on open ground when going to work at the airport. I actually look forward to testing the coat in colder conditions. I don't have to cringe when I walk outside in single digit temps.

Never wanted to pay this price for a jacket but I really needed one as I've out grown all my others. Was not disappointed what so ever. Everything about this jacket is great. Length is midthigh for me (5'3) so it can be worn with any type of outfit. So extremely warm! This product was well worth every penny!

This is an absolutely beautiful jacket. I have it in Rosin Green Heather - the color is amazing. I've received many compliments on it. I love the length - it keeps your butt and thighs nice and warm. With it being a down-filled jacket, you may expect it to be bulky or constricting, but it really isn't. I've used it while hiking and the only thing negative I can say is that it is almost too warm! So, if you're doing physical activity in it, and it isn't super frigid out, you'll likely sweat a bit. But that's much better than freezing, of course! Also, I've used it while bird watching and photographing, and there have been no issues with carrying my camera and binocular bags over top, or with constantly moving my arms up and down to use those pieces of equipment. I highly recommend this jacket!

The primary reason for the coat was to stay warm as I welcome students each morning at bus duty! I have found the coat to be warm and stylish -- I am wearing it for far more than bus duty. I have received countless compliments from parents and my staff.

Love it! Sizing is accurate. Great price. Great for layering.

I had ordered an XL at first for extra room by t was way too bigZ the large is perfect with a little room for layers underneath. I love the color and the shape and it is so warm!

This is the coat I bought in 2014 fall for the winter in Iowa. This coat will literally save your life. I lived in Des Moines/Urbandale and the winds blow and the temps are - 40! It is no joke and you better have a warm coat or else. I am a Cali girl on top of that and I have ZERO cold weather acclimation. This coat is THE coat! I layered a bit with an undershirt and long sleeved shirt. That was it and I was WARM outside in that crazy cold weather! I could also wear it above zero too :D LOL! Fit true to size. I was a large but bought an extra large in case I wore a heavy sweater with it. SADLY I flew into San Francisco Airport with my beloved coat that was almost new at the time considering this coat will last a lifetime - and went into a few shops and the long delayed lay over there. Along the way I realized I didn't have my beloved coat with me :'( I retraced my steps and my coat WAS GONE! Someone stole my coat and I never saw my beloved coat again. Of course I have purchased NorthFace since. I don't trust anything else. But who ever stole my beloved coat made the score of a lifetime. Luckily I was moving back to California. It would have been sad if I still lived in Iowa and needed this coat!!! I LOVE Northface and trust no one else. The cost is inexpensive considering the superior quality of their products. I am sold for life. I bought their very best snow boots too, when I lived in Iowa. I still have them, no one got a chance to steal those :D < 3 LOVE YOU NORTHFACE!

I love this coat!! Worth every penny! Not too bulky and so incredibly cozy! I love that the sleeves have the extra sleeve on the interior to prevent airflow up your arms. Its a thick coat but still helps to flatter the female figure! I love this coat and know it will last me years!

Warm, comfortable and waterproof. Never before having all three qualities in one coat. I love it.

This coat is the reason I can leave the house and continue on with my life in these super cold Seattle winters. If I ever have to escape a house fire, this is one of the first things I'd grab.

Awesome coat. Only things I wish were different are the front pockets -not comfortable to put your hand into because they are designed to prevent things falling out- and the hood doesn't stay up against the wind. Other than that, very warm, comfortable, looks & fits great.

Great jacket for my daily commute to work whether by subway or walking in all kinds of whether

I bought this coat for my mom. She needed a new warm coat. I tried it on at a local store and found it ran a bit small, so I sized up for her. I actually bought myself the same exact coat after receiving the coat for my mom. It is a little bulky, but mainly because I sized up for comfort. I would recommend this coat to anyone who needs it for light snow activity and everyday winter warmth and element protection.

Nice high quality jacket.

I just moved to Chicago and with it being my first winter here, I needed something durable and warm. I am outside walking to the bus/train a lot so this coat had many good reviews already. I bought it and two days later, I had already got it in the mail. Love the color, the pockets are deep, love the inside pocket and the headphone holder inside the coat. Overall, I am a fan of the coat, it keeps me warm and blocks the wind in this windy city.

Always wanted a northface coat. Wonderfully warm. No need for layers. Very comfortable.

I've been looking for a wonderful winter coat for years. This is definitely it. It is not too bulky, but heavy enough to keep you very warm. Waterproof and windproof is a necessity for me. It is very cozy. I absolutely love the color. Pockets are deep, quality zippers, and nice silhouette for heavy winter coat.

Purchased this coat for my girlfriend. It's so warm that it actually backfired on me. Need to purchase one for myself now...I'm freezing and it doesn't phase her sitting outside in freezing weather. She thanks me everyday for it. Got her a large based on her height and weight and it fits perfectly. If you're hesitant on spending the extra money for a Northface, just do it! You'll be happy you did, or cold like me if you don't.

I love this jacket. It's warm and waterproof-- a perfect combination for New England winter weather.

She likes it!

Product is a great use for cold weather and it's also waterproof great for when it rains.
