Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

I bought this for my wife and ordered the red one. When it came she absolutely loved it. I also bought a Mcmurdo for myself and took it back to get it in red since it was just that awesome. You got to have one if you live in the cold!!! We live in Wisconsin and it's just a savoir.

Really like this coat! Fits perfectly. It's a little greener than I thought it would be but I actually really like the color. Definitely recommend it and am glad I have it to get me through this coming Chicago winter.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this jacket so much!! I needed a basic trench down jacket to keep me and my bottom half warm during long German Winters while riding my bike or walking through the city. This jacket was exactly what I was looking for!! I am not so into the faux fur but you can easily remove it. I also loved the color options.

I spent a little more than I would have like to, but when I received this coat, I was very pleased with the quality as the North face ways delivers. I ordered a size small and was true to size. Very warm, and great quality.:

After trying a shorter Northface I kept checking for the longer coat. I experienced my first winter without a car and my Northface kept me warm. The color was not my first choice but my thoughts was let me get it while it is available. Love it more than my fur coat.

I would recommend this coat to everyone. It's well insulated, and weather resistant. A very good purchase. Bring on the negative temps!

The coat is a quality product as seen. Runs a little small, so if you are xs, needs to order small.

It is so warm, so comfy to wear, I can deal with coming winter.

I live in Michigan, so winters are windy, and FREAKING COLD. This jacket is wind proof, water proof and super insulated. Its perfect for our weather. My last coat was a puffer coat by Michael Kors. The zipper doesn't stay zipped and the snaps are literally falling off. I told the associate helping me about it, and she told me North Face has free repair for life. I know its quality, but this is added security and eased my fears about this big purchase. It does run a little small. I typically wear an XL (Im a size 16 pant, and XL top), and I had to go up a size to XXL for my hips and chest. So now there is plenty of room for wearing layers underneath it. (Not that lots of layers are needed, its WARM and WONDERFUL. So happy with my new coat!

Jacket is very well made. I recommend for taller women I had to return because it was to long for my short legs

Looking forward to testing my red parka in Chicago's extreme winter weather!

This coat was bought to handle Russian winters and it absolutely does that. The hood helps to keep warmth from escaping from my head and it is long enough to cover the majority of my body. Great find!

Fits perfect! Winter in Minnesota looks much more bearable. Thanks!

I've been looking at this parka for awhile and finally made the purchase. I'm in MN and the winters can be cold and windy. I just received my jacket this summer, but I know by just trying it on it will do the job of keeping me warm. I'm 5'4" and about 125 lbs. I ordered the small as I normally do and it fits perfect but there's not a lot of extra room for big bulky clothes under. However, the fact the jacket is so warm it won't even matter. I'm excited to wear it!

I got my coat a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it. The fit is perfect and the red color I bought it in looks just like in the picture. The hood fits very well and overall the coat quality is excellent! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a warm winter coat.

This jacket is by far one of the best purchases that I have made. This jacket is warm, comfortable and the fit is excellent. I love the length and the medium fits me perfect. I'm 5'8 and 145 lbs. I love the North Face and all of their products are top notch. It's great having the comfort of a lifetime warranty. They really know how to take care of their customers and we keep on coming back! Thank you The North Face for being such a great brand!

This is an amazing winter coat, you won't need any coat in your closet but this one. I felt the length to be perfect and the lining is outstanding. I just want people to know this is a really great investment. I also feel this coat is true to size if you are familiar with your North Face size. I don't feel the sizing of this coat is any different than others. I'm 5ft 6, 130lbs and an XS fits perfect with room for layering, I always get an XS in North Face coats. Every North Face sizing chart tells me to get a Small but it ends up looking like a tent on me!

Love the jacket, I wasn't able to get it last winter as they ran out from stock

This is my first NF jacket purchase and I am very pleased. It's a great coat that's perfect for the cold, wet and snowy winter in Michigan. I am 5'8''/132 lbs and the Medium fits well with room for layering underneath. The sleeves also are the correct length and the cut is flattering. This coat is a great mix between stylish and functional. Would purchase again.

There is no coats that compare to north face they keep me very warm I live in New York it's needed to when you go out you won't feel the cold

Had the identical coat in white in 2006 - my mistake, I washed it in a regular washer and it was never the same. In early 2014 I tried several other NF styles without any success. This coat just came back in stock in Black - ordered immediately and am very very happy with the style and cut. I'm 5'5 appx 125 lbs with broad shoulders; won't be able to wear a heavy sweater but won't need to! Length is perfect and is very well made (I tend to destroy zippers). It's as well made as the earlier coat, and I hope to get many many winters out of this one.

I bough this coat to replace an existing winter coat I had and boy was I satisfied. I love the fact that it's so warm, yet so light. It's the greatest lightest coat I have found!

Only thing the zipper, is too loose.

Second coat I have purchased and I am extremely satisfied with the quality of this brand and styles

Great coat! This coat is perfect for the sometimes rainy/snowy winters in Washington DC. I am 5'8", 135 with broad shoulders and hips. The M is the perfect size and leaves plenty of room for a sweater or Blazer to be warn underneath. I have already washed and dried the coat without any issues.
