Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Most aspects are great, but I wish Northface provided temperature guidelines for all its clothing.

Great fit, was between M and L and chose M (5' 4" 155 lbs). Does wrinkle slightly when you sit down. Soft, water resistant exterior. Lovely loft. Off white is easy to get dirty - hoping it cleans easily.

The jacket fits nicely and is toasty warm. It would benefit from having drawstrings to adjust the hood closure and a snap at the bottom of the coat to provide better coverage.

I love everything about this product except that the sleeves are too long on me. When my arms are down and relaxed, my fingertips don't even come out of the sleeves. Otherwise, love the parka!

I just purchased this parka I time for the cold to hit the north east. It was exactly what I looking for in the length and warmth. Only complaint sizing was way off!!! order up!!!!!

The product is amazing and keeps me warm

Warm jacket for Chicago winter. It's lightweight for the amount of warmt and insulation it provides. Only issue is the zipper keeps poking my chin and there seems to be no way to adjust it away from my lower face.

It gives good protection from cold. This is the best I ever had. I should have gotten a size bigger but it still works.

I re brought this jack because the first one lasted me 7 years. It's durable keeps me warm and long lasting!

The product wasn't clear enough about size and fit. I ordered the wrong size but there is no online exchange and as a college student, I cannot afford the current return and buy a new one cuz it would cost atleast 150 dollars more expensive. Otherwise, the product quality seems really nice.

Bought the parka on sale online. The description says the hood is fully adjustable but it is not. I can't see when I put the hood on even though I have a big head. Disappointed. Otherwise the parka is ok.

Love the color and weight of the jacket! Its a tiny bit narrow on the thighs but the next size up was too large everywhere else.

Purchased to have as a heavy duty coat around town all winter long. Very comfortable! Is heavy duty. Hoping it preforms like the 2019 model which was amazing! Kept me SO WARM, blocked wind and was the best parka I've ever owned. Unfortunately this new model doesn't allow the hood to be taken off and doesn't have a zipper inside pocket. Other than that is a great jacket so far. I size up to allow sweaters underneath. I am a 40 inch waist/hop/bust and got a XL

I haven't had a chance to wear this coat, since I purchased it on sale this past spring. (I'm 5'5", 145 lbs.) However, I was pleased to see that the tag indicates the coat is machine-washable! (Picture of tag attached.) I didn't see the cleaning instructions listed ANYWHERE in the online description of the coat, which was very frustrating! (I hope The North Face fixes this issue for ALL of its outerwear.) Anyway, I tried the coat on at home and it feels and looks like a good-quality coat. The only problem I have is that the outer sleeves are too long, so I have to fold them back. (There's a thumb notch on "inner" sleeves, so you can cover your hands, if desired, but I don't like doing that.) I actually ordered both the Medium and Large size coats to compare the fit; however, I discovered the sleeves on the Medium coat are also too long. In the end, I decided to keep the Large size, because it's more roomy and I can zip it up over my waist pack, which I couldn't do with the Medium size.

This parka is an excellent investment for anyone looking to stay warm during the winter without sacrificing style. It's functional, fashionable, and built to last. Whether you're commuting to work or embarking on a winter hike, this parka is up for the challenge.

Very comfortable and warm. Color is a little brighter than the picture.

Good quality and nice style

Haven't tested it in truly cold weather yet, but it's very comfortable and the fit is flattering. Much prefer this closure style over last season's (bought on sale and returned after comparing the two), but do wish the interior pocket still had a clasp/zipper. Not sure why they did away with that. Also appreciate that on the white version the logo is more subtle.

Fits well

Seems warm, but the hood is a tetch annoying. Great color

I really like the jacket. Just know its long but that good when its cold.

Some pockets on the chest would be nice, good lightweight warm coat.

It's lightweight but warm. Looks nice but the zipper sucks.

Good quality! Very warm well made parka. I am 5'7" 118 lb size S fits perfect. Only wish a bigger hood.

This coat is very warm for walking my dog in 10 degree weather. The hood is a little strange and obscures my vision if I don't wear a hat underneath it. The fur definitely helps deflect the wind from my face which I love. It's a bit difficult to get the hang of the low double zipper but it is very handy for squatting down to pick up poo. I'm used to a 3 in one so it isn't as versatile but the long length keeps me warmer on long walks.
