Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

I am in love with my purchase. It is so comfortable and stkish also keeps me super warm !!!! Its a win win

I just got this as a present, I wanted this coat for awhile but if you have pets I would not recommend this. Pet hair clings to the material and does not want to come off easily. I love the coat so much but I can't deal with having to lint roll this every time I want to wear it.

I bought the Arctic Parka in new taupe. I usually wear a medium, but I was swimming in the medium I ordered. I returned it for a small and that fits much better, although I wish there was an in between size. Overall cute coat that will last a long time!

Love the coat but is a little snug, one size up would of been too big, would not be able to wear a layer under it. Top breast section is very snug. Can zipper it, and move and sit a little bit. More of a slim fit than suggested.

Love this jacket definitely is comfy and keeps me warm.

I use this coat for work. I work in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn and it is very windy in that area and this coat is perfect for the location.

Stylish and warm, can't beat it. I love the length and am glad it doesn't ride up as I walk (which is a problem I've experienced before with longer jackets). I'm 5'8'' 160 lbs and the M fits well and is a little snug on the shoulders but the coat is so warm I don't feel the need to layer too much. The pockets are a little small for all the random stuff I try to stuff in there but being a more fitted look, that makes sense. I like the green color and is nice to have among the see of black coats this time of year.

I liked too much is very good

I really like the coat

I live in NYC and this coat has been really warm. I love this coat and it is super cute.

Great for cold weather and rain

I loved the fit of this jacket however it did seem less puffy when I ordered online versus the one I tried on in store. Even though I was told it was one of the second warmest parkas they had in store it did not seem that warm to me compared to an older parka that is 3 years old.

Nice

Great feel to parka. It is slightly tighter than expected, but still feels good. Hope it keeps me warm for super cold weather.

Cute coat- didn't like the navy blue color. The fabric looked a little shinny but the heather gray is perfect

I had to get one size bigger.

Me being a small person a xs was still slightly too big around the torso area but fit fine everywhere else! I tried it once on a small errand run and it kept me warm the whole time! But the weather was only semi-cold so I don't know how warm it'll be when winter actually comes. But hopefully it'll keep me warm enough~

Love the product. The way if fits and looks is amazing, however, the fit was a bit disappointing. It fits smaller than expected

I definitely say is what I was looking for

Wanted to try a parka but am a little heavy so was worried about looking like a marshmallow. Went to the North Face store at the mall to try on coats. This one was warm, soft, versatile and the most flattering. They didn't have the Outer Boroughs jacket in the store...that one also looked nice and well cut, but was much more expensive. So I ordered this one in the heather grey after confirming the fit in the store's navy blue. Also was curious about the red but I think the grey matches more of my cute hats and scarves. Like the fit and the zipper works from below to make it an easier sit in the car. Only thing I would design differently: pockets aren't insulated in the front (do have down at the back). Without gloves, hands could potentially get pretty cold in the front pockets.

I snowshoe and walk in the winter all winter long. Was looking for a warm lighter weight jacket

I really like the jacket it was just a little long for my liking

Great product. Very warm and stylish.

My original Artic Parka had torn inside on a seam, and feathers started pilling everywhere, so I needed an update. My original lasted 7 years and I was truly impressed with it, so I was happy to order the upgraded Artic Parka II. The style and fit are virtually the same. There are two differences I noticed: The original was ever so slightly longer (maybe an inch or two). The upgrade comes down to my mid thigh (I'm 5'7"), so I am happy with it. But those extra couple inches were nice, without being super long. The upgrade's hood is a little bit wider. I have yet to test the coat in the wind, but I fear that it being loose around my ears, I would still need a hat to keep me warm. In all, the coat has a nice slim fit, is a good length, and is warm. If it's anything like the previous version, the quality is also good and is a nice investment. Prior to switching to North Face, I had department store down coats, and they really don't compare to these. In the Chicago winds, these coats truly make a difference.

Good. Will help survive Chicago winter
