Customer Reviews The North Face Gotham Jacket

Love the jacket but wish it were more true to size.

Northface, I am petite (5ft) and I've been waiting a couple of years for something similar to the Yume parka down jacket. This previous jacket was a good length for petites but it was also long enough (centered back 30-32) to cover. In addition, it had a nice covered zipper and pocket without the flashy logo (darker logo). Currently, the Gotham (with the fur hood) has these things but it is not long enough and has a flashy logo. I hope that there can be a jacket for petites that are just nice as the metropolis for length.

I normally wear mediums however this coat is tight & the arms are short. I washed it inside out prior to wearing & metal zipper pull snapped in half.

My first impression when I put it on was “This is so warm!” Even the pockets are warm! I ordered a medium because I thought I was a small. The medium looks like a small, my family made the same comment when I showed them the jacket. I am 5’3 130 lbs. I should have went with a L but it’s okay! Overall a really nice and warm jacket, it just runs a little small.

Generally comfortable, as mentioned, sleeve are a little short when extending arms. Soft feel of material. Pockets are very warm. Zipper is plastic; I hope it lasts.

I love this jacket, but it runs small. That's why I gave it 4 out of 5 stars. I'm 5'6", 125lbs, bust size 34D, waist 27". I normally wear a small in other brands. If you're medium to large in bust size, then you may want to order a size up. The sides are tapered in so it's tight in the bust area. I could barely lift my arms above my head. It's is a cute jacket so I'm going to order it in medium to see how that size fits.

I love how it looks, how it feels and that the fur is removable.

This is very warm and cute looking

I like my jacket, warm and fits well

I have mixed emotions with this one. im 116 pounds 5"0 and a Small fit great. Im petite framed and thought an xs would do but it was too tight. The size small fit perfect with room for sweater underneath. im not too happy with the lenght i wish it was a tad bit longer to cover my whole butt area but it was designed to just go half way. you can even use it for a windbreaker in the spring. its not for harsh weather. it is very stylish tho.

Great coat for Wisconsin Winters!!

I love this jacket. I ended up going with the black jacket - was hoping for a white color, but this is more of an off white. This jacket is so warm, comfortable. The zippers aren't quite as heavy duty as I would expect at this price, but hopefully they last!

This is an awesome coat. You can go casual or dress it up.

This is very warm. Maybe just a tad on the small side but not enough to size up.

Fits good, I'm 5'9" 145 lbs. Got a large, big enough to wear a bulky sweater underneath. I wish the hood was detachable but only the fur is.

I'm usually a medium, and have other Jackets/coats in size medium. However, I thought this jacket would be fitted so I ordered a large... I should have stuck to my regular size M. Regardless, I decided to keep it as I plan on wearing sweaters etc and i guess it's better to have extra space and not be a restricted fit. I do love the style and look.. but it's obviously too big for me.

I am going to travel to a colder place where I am. We had a cold snap and that jacket kept me very warm.

Replacing my everyday coat, I splurged on something more fashion-forward. It has a cute waist, that not only keeps drafts out, but is flattering. The hood stays up even in gusting wind, a feature I didn't know it had, but was happy to find. It's super soft and cute. I wish it were maybe 1-2 inches longer in the sleeves and at the bottom. I have long arms and a long torso, and the coat *just* fits.

Love the jacket just too many feathers that stab me or come out while wearing.

Super cute & warm. I wish the hood was completely detachable. Collar is too high & hits your chin when zipped up. I bought a size small & size medium to see which fit best. Small is a little snug across the back, but the medium is too big.

Super cute, stylish, & warm. I used the size recommendation & it suggested a size medium (5'5 height & 125 lbs). I think its a little big, so I just ordered a size small so I can see which size fits better. I also think the collar comes up too high & hits my chin which can be annoying. A detachable hood would also be nice.

This jacket was a perfect fit as soon as I tried it on, it's great for the waist line and has a very nice feel on the arm sleeves. The only thing that I would say it's not very good at its the weight, but for a cold weather is perfect!

I love how the jacket is super lightweight and stylish! It keeps me really warm and the little fur hood adds a nice touch!

Normal wear

I love t hi is jacket is lightweight, confortable and it keeps me warm. The only problem is the zippers in the pockets are a little hard and also there are threads hanging around the jacket .
