Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Love this coat! It's stylish and warm. This is my first North Face coat and I'm impressed. I've only had it a couple wks and have already gotten so many compliments. :)

Love how warm and light this coat is, the length is great too. White color is very stylish. 5'3 and 110lb, ordered my usual TNF size S, fits me comfortably with enough room to layer. XS fits too, but is too tight to be comfortable. I don't hate cold weather that much now, as I could just slip in this cozy coat and walk in New England winter in style! The only thing I noticed is that the insulation of the shoulder patches is not even, causing cold spots on half shoulder, not sure if it's just this one, but over all still 5 star!

I live in San Francisco, where the worst winter weather necessitates pulling the hood up on your sweatshirt, and this coat kept me alive during a week in New York when the weather was literally -25. There was biting, 60 mph wind, snow, and, once it had warmed up a smidge, apocalyptic rain, and this coat got me through it all. It's stylish and comfortable without being bulky. I can't imagine a better winter coat. Only complaint is that the zippers can be a bit temperamental, but that shouldn't deter anyone from purchasing this.

I purchased this jacket before a ten day trip to Quebec Canada. I loved it the minute I tried it on. I purchased a size up (I was truly in between sizes, so I went with the bigger size so that I could wear layers under it without feeling constricted.) However, because it is slightly fitted it does not look or feel big without the layers. I got so many compliments on this jacket! I also wore it at home in Rhode Island and did not feel that it was "too warm" for a more mild winter day. It's truly better than I expected!

This coat is amazing the color is beautiful. It is so warm the quality of this coat is excellent.

Love it. It arrived before ny hit the lower weather last week. It keeps my body warm in a single digit cold weather.

I love this parka. It's very stylish and the heather grey color is very pretty. It is great for cold weather, very warm and wind resistant.

The product is great I use this product for work. It covers me from the cold. The product is fashionable.

I'm addicted to your staff!

This coat is thin and lightweight, yet still very warm. I wore it walking outside in windy weather below 20*F and was still very warm. I sized up one size because I wanted to make sure I could fit a bulky sweater or hoodie underneath, and that gave me a little extra room without being too boxy. The length comes down to around knee length (I'm 5'10), so it keeps my legs warm, and there are also soft fabric cuffs in the sleeves. There is also soft fabric at the top that protects your face and neck from blowing snow/cold without rubbing on your skin annoyingly, and the design of this helps keep your hood in place pretty well. There are also nice big pockets. My only criticism would be that the gray color of the actual coat was actually lighter than the dark gray it shows online. That aside, this is a phenomenal coat.

I received the coat, great coat, but wondered if it might be too big and too much coat for me since I have retired. Found a store down on the Kansas City Plaza so I tired on coats at the store. Came home with a different coat with great service. I do believe this coat will serve me better with the removable liner. Two coats in one!!!!

I really like this product!

I wear my parka every day (in the winter) commuting back and forth to work....I take a train (from NJ to NYC) then walk about 5-6 blocks...it's comfortable enough to wear on a train and warm enough to walk from the train station to the office....on the weekends I'm outside a lot and it keeps me quite warm....I love this parka and would buy it again.

Very good for every day use on a cold winter.

I live in warm Southern California and was visiting my boyfriend who lives in Boston. I was really worried about becoming a frozen popcicle so I invested in this stylish jacket. It kept me so warm, even while standing in -32!

I absolutely love this product. It's so warm and comfortable...perfect for the below freezing temps. I wanted to get a new winter coat and this one is both stylish and functional! The hood stays up great, which is a huge plus as many hooded coats don't stay up unless you hold the hood forward. This coat was a great investment and I would highly recommend to anyone! It's such a great quality product.

Tested the coat in the snow and it did keep me warm and dry. The length is a big plus! I am 5'7" and the Large hits me about mid thigh. It's great for the below freezing temps we have in Wi.

I have been searching for a long parka that would keep me warm without adding bulk and making me look huge. This coat cinches at the waist just enough to give you shape without being too tight, and isn't overstuffed at all. It's very very warm, and I love the huge pockets. I'm 5'4" about 135lbs, ordered a M and it's a perfect fit, although the sleeves could be a bit longer, but I can live with it.

Keeps me SO WARM

Very happy with my coat. Even got one for a good friend too.

This was the perfect solution to the Arctic Wisconsin weather. I have to stand at the bus stop twice a day and this coat has made a huge difference in how warm I stay. The hood is my favorite part--it's huge so it keeps my whole head covered and the faux fur blocks the wind. I love how slimming it is around the waist and more sleek in the arms than other big, long coats. I have gotten a ton of compliments since purchasing this coat. It was worth spending a little more since the quality is high and it's proven to be a good investment.

Well recommended product.

Not only is this coat beautiful, it is warm and fits great. I used the Northface chart (online purchase did not allow me to try the coat on before buying) and I was so pleased with the fit. I work at a hospital and many of my female coworkers have seen the coat and are considering a purchase as well.

This by far the best winter coat that I have ever purchased. It's exactly as described and looks beautiful on. I have already received several comments on it. I love the color also!

I love this parka! I was looking for a coat of a longer length that is wind-resistant, waterproof, and warm, and this fits the bill perfectly! An added plus is that the hood stays put, even during high-wind winter storms.
