Customer Reviews The North Face Osito 2 Jacket

I order the green texture Otis... The jacket came with no texture. Wasn't happy about that very warm but not what I ordered!!!

I have purchased two Women's Osito 2 Fleece Jackets in hopes the Logo was a mistake on the first one, but second one arrived exactly the same - logo same color as jacket, in our case black on black. (See pics) Very disappointing...

I was really excited about purchasing this but, it started shedding within the first day. My car seat and clothing were left with fuzzies. I felt that the quality wasn't as good as the one I had gotten last year. Sizing wise, I ordered a medium and it was a bit loose which was good for my liking but, I would go down a size if you prefer a tighter fit.

I have always wanted a fleece jacket so I decided to purchase this one. Like other buyers said, this jacket sheds way too much. After wearing it for a while, I noticed lint on my pants and shirt. I placed the jacket on my bed and now there is lint on my bed too (it is a pain to remove them...)! It is a very warm and soft jacket and fits me well (I am 5'3", small frame, and got a size S), but the shedding is a big problem!!!

My daughter and I both got one for Christmas last year. We love the way the jacket fits but the amount it sheds is awful. Unless you have leather car seats, be prepared to have some sort of lint remover handy for the seat and the seatbelt. We also have to be careful with which coats we can hang them near in the closet.

I did the fit test, even read the reviews which lead me to purchase a medium. I am typically a small but figured the fit test would be accurate. Against my better judgment I purchased the wrong size. It's baggy. and the color of the fleece isn't what I expected. :( can't return because I tore off the price tag because my room was freezing. A nice plus is that it is super comfy and feels like a blanket.

I purchase the Osito fleece last year and although I love the fleece, the shedding is worst than a big hairy dog. I read all your ratings, and some people get a fuzz ball and some say it doesn't shed at all. What's the deal? My fleece is from the Fall 2016 collection and I purchased it last year. It's a beautiful lime green color, but when I wear it, I am covered in lime green fuzz.

I like this fleece, but if it weren't for the comfort and wearability I would be rating it lower. My biggest issue is that the sleeves are too short. When I sit down they rise to almost three quarter sleeves and a lot of my wrist is exposed, so this isn't a good thing when trying to keep warm during these cold months...an added extra two inches would be best. On to the shedding...this fleece sheds fuzzies like crazy. I have run it through the washer and dryer twice now. Overall I love the fleece, but there are these couple things that definitely make it a little less likely I will purchase another.

This past Christmas, I purchased three of these jackets. Two as gifts and one for myself. I had purchased one maybe two years prior and I absolutely loved it. The new one I received sheds and rips more easily than my other one. I'm thinking maybe they change the way they're made, but I am disappointed that the one i received was worse quality than my previous one. Other than that, my sister and mom loved them and they're warm and cozy.

My first Osito years ago was the BEST! Silky soft, more true to size fit, had the adjustable pulls on the sides! The new Osito 2 isn't as soft fits a lot tighter and I even sized up, some colors have a weird patterned look, and has no adjustable sides...

Great for everyday! Super warm and comfortable. I have had the jacket 1 month and 1 week and the sleeve cuffs are coming unsewn! There is hole now my pinky gets stuck in. Usually North Faces craftsmanship is better. The worse part is that I have to pay to ship the jacket back to have it repaired since it is just past the store return date. I will also be without the jacket at the coldest part of the year. It also sheds slightly but that doesn't bother me too much. This was my favorite jacket. Not so much anymore.

This jacket is shedding. I tried washing thinking that may be the problem. no still shedding.

Disappointed in purple color which is lighter, duller, and lacks the warm undertones of online image. I like the higher, self-lined collar and overall length. Decreasing the lining in the front of the garment from earlier versions enabled them to create two deep interior pockets, whcih some will value more than the lost bit of warmth. The zippers ares much thinner and cheaper than North Face fleece's of the past, which some may prefer for city wear, but which will fall sooner. Because of that, I would not recommend this garment for outdoor sports where you need reliable warmth. And North Face, please use a more durable cuff ending. The thin knit trim frays and looks tacky pretty quickly! There is no elastic drawstring with tightening toggles in the hem anymore. So, overall, this is a nice fleece for casual city wear, but more cheaply built than the North Face fleeces of the past. Sigh...

The jacket was my second osito, so I was expecting about the same thing as last time. But I have had this jacket for about a month and the stitching on the cuff has already broken from very careful minimal use

I like the jacket but it just didn't wash up as pretty as it was to begin with..The white is very nice and I recommend these to others but I just thought it would wash up better.

Mother Loves it for an added layer in winter or as is in the spring and fall. Soft and plush

Jacket was beautiful but in less than 1 month, the ribbon binding on the sleeve pulled away from the sleeve and there was a 2" split. Had to return as defective and order another one. Hope this one is made better as it is a beautiful jacket.

This was ordered as a birthday gift. I am a bigger woman who was wanting a warm, comfy and lightweight jacket to wear through the seasons. Ordered this in a 3x as I am bigger in the middle area.....the jacket fit and zipped but was a little snug, so I returned it. I wish it would have had just a little more room in it. Otherwise it was perfect. Perfect color, style, feel and weight.

Have bought three for my daughter and they are comfy.

This lightweight jacket fit perfectly-true to size, and was very comfy, but it sheded onto everything!

discontinued item looking for drawstring at the bottom.

Returned zipper did not work

When new, it is the best jacket ever. It is warm, comfortable, and a nice-looking jacket. I had a fear of washing it, even though the care instructions said it is to be machined washed. I took it to a dry cleaner anyways, but she refused to because of the care instructions. I washed it, and it did not take long for it to look old and ragged. The fleece gets matted and balls up. Maybe it is a fluke because I am not seeing any other reviews with this problem. We felt the same way as the excellent reviews when it was brand new. Even after first washing, I noticed it did not look as well as it did new - and it only got worse after each washing. If anyone has any suggestions on preventing that, I would love to know because we would love another one if we could prevent that.

This jacket would be perfect if it didn't shed lint everywhere~

God the bluebird color for the jacket and was disappointed that the color is pretty different from the web. I understand that it could be due to photography but the real color is so much more green and bright that the one shown on the web and so I would have to return this. Otherwise , the material is really irresistible and I have always been satisfied with my purchase from north face !
