Customer Reviews The North Face Inlux Insulated Jacket

I feel a little odd as the first of 46 people to dislike this coat. When I first received it I was disappointed to see that the fleece was only around the chest and neck. It's not in the sleeves and it doesn't line the hood. I put it on for a couple minutes and it felt ... hollow somehow. Stiff and hollow. I put it off to the side for over a week, reread the amazing reviews and told myself to get over it. On a 49 degree evening I wore it to run a 10 minute errand. It was bizarre how uncomfortable it was. The jacket was fully zipped and the velcro was engaged but the top velcro scratched my chin so much that I put neosporin on it when I got home because my skin was so irritated. The next morning I still felt the irritation. The other oddity was that the jacket puckered at the spot where that attractive "V" cut-out is. I have a short torso so maybe that explains it. Last but not least, I was not hot on a 49 degree evening with the jacket over a tee shirt, and a running pullover with long sleeve and a short turtleneck. Colder weather would require much more layering than I'd expect for this kind of jacket.

Overall very dissatisfied with the coat. I was not able to try on the coat because it arrived in a used condition. Very disappointed as I was looking forward to wearing this new coat

This is my one winter coat. It is very warm but the zippers are terrible. The left pocket zipper came off, the main front zipper splits. The vent zipper on the right arm unzips by itself. I called NF they said it would take 4 weeks to fix!! This is the only winter coat I have! NOT IMPRESSED!
