Customer Reviews The North Face Gotham Jacket II

great for everyday winter coat!

Not using it because i had to return it; the one i ordered was a bigger size according to North Face recommendations. I couldn't find the red in my size, so...

Very comfortable and warm!

I bought this jacket got my teenage daughter and she loves it! Not to heavy or puffy but warm enough for Chicago weather!

Very comfortable and lightweight and the fit is flattering. Not bulky but still warm. The only thing I would change is that the fur on the hood kind of hangs down over the hood so it is hard to see when you are wearing it.

It keeps you very warm. Only one con, there are a lot of feathers come out.

I wanted a warm stylish coat and this one is perfect.

This jacket is a good late fall/ mild winter jacket. It's not appropriate for the subzero temps we get in MN, where we can see -30 for at least a while every winter, however, for commuting or short term wear during milder days, it's nice to have a lighter weight jacket that looks and feels comfortable in mild wind. I recommend this jacket for those times.

Beautiful red jacket; wish it were a bit longer and a tad looser but it looks great. Can't judge winter performance in October but I am willing to re-review later. Service in the Victor NY store was excellent. Thanks again!

This is a beautiful coat. The fabric has a nice soft feel, and it is well made. I was unhappy with the fit around the waist and hips, so I sent it back. I am only 5'1", so I think the torso of the coat was too long for me. I'll have to find something petite.

Beautiful color (shady blue), but seems to run small. I am usually a L to XL. After using the fit finder, I ordered an XL, as was suggested. I tried this coat on with a thin long-sleeved t-shirt on and it zipped easily, but was snug. I should say that I am VERY hard to fit, as I am five feet tall, heavy, and carry most of my weight in my midsection. Also, at five feet tall, the sleeves fit perfectly. On an XL. So if you are a tall woman who would normally wear an XL, the sleeves on this are likely too short for you. Because, as I mentioned, I carry most of my weight in my midsection, I expected that the tapered part would be a bit more form fitting. However, I did not think that an XL would make it impossible for me to comfortably put on a sweater under it. Shoulders and chest fit well, and if not for the inward taper, the coat would have fit pretty well. The coat does seem to be VERY warm. I tried it on inside and couldn't keep it on for very long. My advice: Go up a size. Worthwhile purchase if you are on the tiny side. Advice to North Face: Larger women need to be warm in the wintertime, too. And we would really like it if the nice colors were available to us as well.

I bought static guard, I put in the dryer on air with a fabric sheet. Nothing seems to be getting rid of the static.

I really like how stylish & lightweight it feels and how warm it keeps me even in - degree snow weather. I dislike that that the zipper zips up the material and gets stuck sometimes. I also dislike the fur flap on the hood not being secured down and sometimes falls in my view. I don't get why there isn't something to hold it down when the wind blows.

Bought this jacket for may daughter. First bought in medium had to return for a small.

If I could give this 4.5 stars, I would but know option for partial star rating. I really like the jacket. I live in Chicago and have already had the chance to wear it in minus zero wind chills and it was plenty warm. I only have 2 comments that are not 100% positive. The first is I bought this online used The North Face's fancy little find your size tool. It came back and advised I order an XXL but that was far too big when it arrived. Sent back and got a different size. That process was quick and painless. The second is the hood. It has this ability to be folded back so it is not all in your face but in windy conditions, it does not stay folded back. The hood coverage is very generous so you can be left having to hold it back so you can see where you are walking if the wind is at your back. Would be nice if there were a snap or two to hold it back when you don't need your face buried into the jacket. Overall, I am pleased with the purchase though and would buy again!

Not as happy as usual with The North Face but still a great jacket to say the least

This is jacket is so warm, yet it is SO LIGHT! It's incredible. I got the "BLACK DONEGAL PRINT," and it's so much fun, and now it's so much easier to find my jacket!

As a coat

The product was great.

The red color is beautiful. I am hoping it is warm and durable through our cold winter months.

Fit nice in shoulders and length good on arms a little snug around the middle , stylish

I love this coat. It was given to me for Christmas let year and I couldn't be happier with it.

Very lightweight and warm hood is great. Arms are roomy. Love the style. Just wish it was a little fuller in the chest area.

Awesome coat, a bit large which makes it perfect for layering :) fur on the hood is also weirdly unattached but still looks great

Warmth without bulk washable lovethat
