Customer Reviews The North Face Venture 2 Jacket

Been wanting a good 5-panel hat for a while and glad I stumbled upon this one. Very comfortable and stylish.

Needed a new hiking rain jacket, and am very pleased with the Venture jacket. It has good ventilation options and blocks the rain. I like slim fitting shirts/jackets, but needed a jacket a bit baggier to allow layering options, and this one strikes a good balance between a slimmer fit and offering layering options.

Amazing jacket! Super comfortable and bretheable for hikes. Perfect jacket on the rainy island of Hilo, Hawaii.

Great for rain and can fit in a really small place when not in use.

Amazing it keeps me very dry

Bought it for husband who 6 ft, 170 lbs size medium fits well. He loves that it's light and breathable.

Great jacket. All year round. Durable and stylish

I really enjoyed the VENTURE JACKET, efficient in the rain also protects from wind, very good and very pleasant to use.

Use it when it is raining. Great product!

Bought this for my husband who is 6'5" and has trouble finding the right torso and sleeve length. This was a perfect fit. Will definitely look out for more tall-sized items!

Super jacket.......... Even better service. After 4 years my old venture start to prmature wear. Send it to TNF 10 laters i receive a brand new one in my mailbox! Great service and guarantee.

I have a family of 6 and everyone has this jacket. It is great for our area and all of the rain. Light weight and truly waterproof!

I bought this jacket a couple years ago, and decided to buy the updated version for my boyfriend (he likes cycling, running, etc.) since he didn't yet have a waterproof jacket. We live in Georgia right now, and this jacket is great for the wet weather here since we get both warm and cold rain: Right now it's humid with warm rain, but the shell jacket easily fits over a jacket for when it will be colder rain. I've had mine for 4 years now and it's held up well, and I my boyfriend will probably have his for a long time (even when we're not living in Georgia anymore). The ONLY issue I had was that the grey color was darker than what was displayed online. I held his gray/red jacket next to my black one and they were almost identical. It's fine because it still looks great, but if you want grey, just know that ahead of time that it will be a very dark grey.

Both of my teenagers have this jacket which is fabulous for standing at the bus stop in rainy weather (apparently it is not cool to carry an umbrella). They continue to wear the jacket in the colder months, by layering a hoodie underneath. The sleeves can be adjusted at the wrist for a custom fit.

This jacket is great quality and fits perfectly. The reason I'm leaving a review is because of sizing questions I had before buying. I bought the regular and tall size. For scale, I'm 6'4", 210, and fit. When I wear dress shirts I wear a 36 neck, 36/37 sleeves. When I wear a regular shirt (polo, t-shirt, etc.) I wear a large. I got the large, and it fits like a glove. The regular size fits okay on my torso and the length is fine, but the sleeves were too short. The sleeves on the tall version come down to about mid-palm when the cuffs aren't tightened, but when you do tighten them you have plenty of space in your sleeves to move comfortably in all kinds of different motions. So if you're tall and have long arms like me, I'd get the tall version.

This is a great rain coat. Despite some other comments the sleeves do not feel too long to me. To be fair I'm 6'6" so that might be a factor as well.

This jacket is great for teenagers who rarely wear more than a hoodie. It's lightweight, but will block the wind and rain. Great for 3 seasons , maybe more if no snow or freezing temps.

Living in Central Texas, I needed a lightweight but bulletproof rain jacket for our downpours. Love it. Love the inside & outside pockets and Velcro adjusting wrists.

I started looking for a jacket because my family and I went to Alaska on a cruise. Being a big guy I have trouble finding clothes in stores that fit so I started to look online. The Venture Jacket from Northface came in a 3X and had some good reviews so I took a chance. It showed up two days later and it fit perfect but as always it comes down to durability. I am hard on clothes, especially jackets. Taking them on and off to regulate my body temp and I am a big guy so my shoulders tend to hit things. This jacket performed awesome. I went on a 9 mile bike ride, climbed a mountain on a 4x4, and took a 5 mile hike in the rain forest with no problems. The jacket has vents on the side and adjustable wrist straps to cool me down when I am to hot and it keeps the rain off my clothes underneath. It's light weight and roles up small enough to were it doesn't take up much space in my backpack (which most of my jackets do). I highly recommend the Venture Jacket!

I needed a cap for a vacation to a tropical island. I immediately thought of getting a Nike, Adidas or Polo. Then I stumbled into this. Immediately, my gut says this is it and the positive reviews nailed my choice. It came out exactly as I had read and expected. I'm a happy man!

My son loves this rain jacket. Very light weight!

I used the jacket on a rainy and windy day and it kept me warm and dry. it is a great jacket for the elements and really does its job in keeping you warm and dry. I would recommend this jacket to anyone thinking about buying it.

lots of kids soccer games, and yes they play in the darn rain

I bought this for my 14 yr old son for our first Iowa spring (wet and very windy, but warm) and he really loves it! I like that it can roll up/fold up very flat/small to store in his backpack or keep in the car, because the weather changes drastically and quickly here. Really good quality, sharp looking jacket. He'd have preferred the inside color to be black, but he doesn't mind they white.

It just looks super cool.
