Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

I ordered a M and it has room for a thick jacket underneath with still a bit of wiggle room. If you don't need to layer anything underneath, then I would say this runs a tad big. Im 5'3, 145lbs, I usually wear a M or 6/8 on regular clothes. This came down below my knees. It's not too heavy in weight, used to wear heavy wool coats and parkas I would end up with a headache from the jacket's weight. That's why I switched to this. I was looking for a very warm jacket for northeastern winters that is not too heavy. I purchased the wild ginger color. It's not too bad but I expected it to be a bit darker. Instead it kind of has a faded look to it.

I wear size 1x-2x but order size 3x and it perfect fit to me.

I bought this Parka to my mom is her first time in United States (first winter in her life), and I'm located very to the north of United States so is very cold. And my mom is not even complaining about cold. So people who read this review the coat is super good, warm, fit perfect (depending on your amount of layers), not to heavy, waterproof, windproof. Go ahead and buy it.

I loved it!!!! It's very warm and comfortable!!!! I would recommend this coat!!! It's perfect for the cold weather in New York!!!!

Great coat. Warm. Lightweight. Kept me totally warm in Alaska at 0. Also was easy to transport on the airplane as it is lightweight.

Great for Michigan weather. Use daily , warn.

I loved this coat. It's so light weight and warm it's insane. I bought it for March in Alaska and it did not disappoint.

Did you hear the one about Prince Charming keeping nice and warm with his Arctic Parka while the Princess was freezing, he didn't even offer her a little warmth. So the Princess snapped her fingers and poof. She had a luxurious, stylish and warm Arctic Parka with faux fur edging. The Princess was so happy, she snapped her fingers and the Prince was gone. Who needs a selfish prince when she has Arctic Parka to warm her heart and give her protection.

I love my new coat! It is warm, much warmer than I had expected, yet not as heavy as I had anticipated. Easy on and off. Adequate pockets, but not bulky. That is: the materials and the design are excellent! And the appearance is stylish!

1st day with jacket kept daughter warm at a 30 degree horse event

I decided to invest in a good winter jacket this season and I'm so glad I did. I am a college student in New England who is constantly walking to and from class as well as doing dog walking on the side. I am constantly outside walking and the winters here can be very cold and wet. This jacket is perfect as it keeps me super warm while still being flattering. I am 5'7, 130ish pounds and the small fits perfectly.

Very nice coat, has a removable fur, and it is rain proof, plus warm.

I love everything about this coat. Exactly what I needed for our long Alaska winters. I am 5'0" and 108 lbs. I ordered an x-small. Sizing is perfect.

I purchased the red coat, absolutely stunning and so so warm. The fur around the hood is just gorgeous, this coat looks and feels amazing. Totally a worthwhile purchase if you want a functional yet beautiful coat!

Thank you so much the North face, because you help the health workers during Covid-19. It was pricy for me and I am not able to buy it last year but I used my Health care discount and right now I have a beautiful and warmest coat. Thank you so much for your support God bless you

I got a XXL and I am 5'7 about 240. I have a very proportional body so this is great for me!

I'm 114/115 lbs, 5'2, 32D/DD depending on the bra type and brand. The XS is form fitting and I have room for a sweater or hoodie, but it will be a little tight. I also bought the small and it fit, but it took away the form fitting silhouette that I like so I returned it. It was worth sizing down for me.

I am absolutely love this parka. I despise being cold so have been shopping for awhile for the perfect parka that kept me warm but that I could also move freely in. I am a true 2X but after reading reviews I ordered a 3X. I think it fits true to size, I could easily returned it for a 2X but I didn't want to take the risk of it being too snug. If you are a plus size woman and are considering purchasing this parka, I say do it.

I was looking for a new winter jacket that would be warm enough, waterproof and stylish for my trip to Iceland in November. This jacket checked all the boxes on my must haves and I couldn't be happier with my purchase! I'm 5' 8'' 135lbs and the small fit perfectly. I was also extremely pleased with the sleeve length and love the flattering fit. I highly recommend!

I bought this jacket because I needed a warm coat to get me through a winter trip to the East coast. This jacket is very warm. I am usually a size Medium or 8 but upsized to a Large so it would not be too tight in the shoulders/chest and be long enough in the arms since my arms are excessively long. The large fits well, although I think the shape of the coat would be more flattering had I stuck with a size Medium, I prioritized comfort over style with no regrets. Pockets are large and there is ample room to store all your items. Coat is very well made - I expect it will last many, many years.

This parker is awesome. I love the style and the fit. It is not so heavy that you can not move in it yet it is very warm. The length is perfect to keep your lower body warm and the zipper comes up so it is comfortable all around. Perfect for walking, and driving. Hood is adjustable so it will probably fit anyone but if you don't like it, you can remove it.

This was my valentine day gift to my wife and she is in love with the color (juniper teal) and feel of the jacket. The color is vibrant and goes with all the dresses and occasions equally well. She is 5'3" and 115 lbs; 'S' fits her comfortably and the length is also perfect. The hood covers the face and ears well and has a good grip (that can be adjusted) against strong winds. My wife feels cold very soon but this jacket kept her warm and happy in -4F as well. What she loves the most about this jacket is the hidden comfortable elastic grip in the arms that keeps arms warmer. The internal pocket for phone with a media loop is another laudable feature in the jacket she adores. She has received tons of compliments for this jacket already.

Super warm, great for a Nebraska winter. I am 5'10" and 140 - ordered medium and it fits well, just wish the sleeves were 1/2' longer. But I tried on a large at another store and it was way too big.

Living in Iceland a good parka is essential. I simply love this one, it's the best Ive ever had. Its stylish, warm and lightweight. I was happy to have read a review that recommended to take a size bigger then I would usually do. I normally wear an L size but I chose an XL and it fitted perfectly. I am also happy to have chosen the vaporious gray color, its so flattering!
