Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Ordered a Large top too big bottom snug. Finger loops on hands too short coat arm length too long.

Very disappointed in this jacket. It's not warm at all. I wore three shirt layers and two pant layers and my arms and legs were cold and I could feel cold air coming through in 25 degrees weather.

This color green looks waaay different in real. It's too bright, gives me a headache looking at it.

I used this jacket for one very light winter and the stitching of the pocket lining came out within the first two months. I contacted them and they said I had to pay to send it in to be evaluated.

Fabulous color! Warmest coat I've ever tried on. NO drawstring in the hood! Returned it! It fell over my face. SAD

Had to return because it's too big. I'm usually a medium but decidedly to up a size to layer but it's too big.

Unfortunately the medium fit perfectly but I wanted it a little bigger for layering and I tried the large. There's a huge difference in size.so I had to return.

Disappointed in fit and quality

Completely disliked how the regular small size looked on me . It made me look very bulky. May be should have tried petite size.

The parka was fine but I ordered black and they sent a tan parka. Customer service at Zappos has gone downhill fast. If black isn’t in stock, cancel the order. Instead I had to deal with a return for something I never wanted.

Zipper broke the very first day my daughter had it. Can't find anyplace to fix it

I love the look of this jacket and want to buy it however I definitely need a two-way zipper. Can someone please tell me if there is a two-way zipper? Some of the reviews say it does, but in the features - it only shows Vislon Center Zip and says nothing about a 2-way zipper. Thank you!

Bought this the end of November 23, started wearing it in Mid December it's the end of January and the teeth to the zippers been falling off one by one, now the zipper doesn't stay on the track scared to even wear it anymore. I got the coat bigger than what I normally wear so it doesn't fit tight while moving around. North Face has just definitely gotten cheap on the quality. Never again

Horrible and weird fit. too small and too big at the same time. Feels like it just hangs on you. Poor quality not warm even in 48F. You're basically paying for the brand. Way better coats

Where do I even begin on how horrible this coat is?? Ok I'll start with the style. It has done. It's boxy and trunky with a weird seam that digs into the neck. I wore this in 48F and FROZE! Returned

I work outdoors and need gear that can hold up to that. To say that I am disappointed is an understatement. First the jacket is not waterproof as I am wet today and still have 2 hours of outside time in the rain, sleet, and snow. The jacket is not nearly as warm as I thought it would be and the hood does not fit at all and there are not adjustments. We are a family of 6 and spent over $1600.00 for gear that is subpar at best.

I bought this coat 2 years ago and hardly wear it. The zipper on this coat is so cheap. It splits up from the bottom as soon as its zipped up. The zipper thst holds fur on is missing a tooth so its hard to get off and on to wash it. Most disappointing ... i wanted this coat for a long time. Paid $500+ for it and barely wear it because it doesn't stay closed.

Since the beginning, every time I wear the jacket, feathers seem to escape, resulting in an inconvenience where my sweaters and T-shirts are covered with feathers. This not only diminishes the overall quality of the jacket but also creates a constant need for cleaning and maintenance. Contacted customer service and got reply of "it's normal" and "you are not eligible to get a warranty". Where is the life time warranty then? And it's not warm. I wear it when it's minus 5 to 10, and not feeling warm at all.

Fit was very boxy and although it was warm the gray color was very unattractive and the fit did nothing for my curvy figure bc it was looking so boxy. Returned right away.

Zipper broke after two wears.

Really wanted to like this, but had to return. Must have been designed for a Neanderthal sleeves are WAAAY TOO long.

Wore it for the first time yesterday. Temp 25; strong, cold NW wind. Nearly froze in this jacket as the cold wind went right through it. Not worth the price. Returning it.

Way too long for women under 5'4, I am 5'3 and its about 3-4 inches too long in the legs and 2-3 inches too long in the arms where I just look like a child in the coat.... wish they made petite sizes in this style

I was very disappointed and surprised at the poor quality of this parka. I have always been a Northface fan, but this parka arrived looking faded, some gawdy purple dye on part of the trim, the waist was not adjustable even though the description says it is, it was unflattering and not at all what I expected from this company. If it didn't have a Northface logo on the front, I would never have guessed it was sold by this company. Returned this coat immediately and won't be buying anything online from NF again. Quality control had gone downhill!

Ordered online, received a worn coat that smelled of body odor in the armpits and fur collar smelled of heavy perfume. I returned in the mail the day after I got it, no exchange permitted. I am still waiting for my refund nearly 3 weeks later.
