Customer Reviews The North Face THERMOBALL Jacket

Outdoors for work sometimes, very warm and comfortable

Nice lightweight cold weather jacket.

Everything and everyday use, I hate coats so this thermoball is perfect for me

Great light weight jacket for temps down to the low 30s by itself. Super warm when you throw a fleece or sweater underneath it. Great travel jacket because it folds up so small, and light enough to be a blanket. Only concerns are the zippers, especially the pocket ones. They are small and I'm just waiting for them to break

Love my jacket. It's light and keeps you warm. My only complaint is that it runs a little big. Wish there was an extra small.

Solid coat for winter, super light but keeps you warm. Wish it was more of a slim fitting coat but overall great purchase.

This jacket is extremely light. Probably it's strongest point. However, it is so light and slippery, that having anything in the pockets pulls the jacket in that direction. Example: I have items in my pants pockets, so I love using jacket and coats for carrying my essentials. I place my iPhone with a case in the left pocket. This pulls the jacket to the left. Now I have my car keys and wallet on the right. Now it's just pulling the whole jacket forward and I feel the weight at the back of the neck. Didn't notice this when trying it on with empty pockets. Empty pockets, this jacket is extremely comfortable. Like wearing nothing. Stuff in pockets, it sort of sucks a bit. It doesn't stay on your shoulders because the material is so slippery. Warmth? It's as expected. Warm enough. The salesperson said on cold days to layer??? Umm no. The jacket is much to form fitting for more than only your thinnest hoodie. This jacket is made for a long sleeve T or a button down plaid shirt. You wear this when going out on a casual trip and it's 30 degrees out and you won't be outside for extended time. I love the looks but I'm still in search of something comfortable to wear while driving, correct warmth, and pockets. Previously my solution in a down vest with a thick hoodie. Probably going to stick to that for the 8th year straight. Or ask my wife to hold my wallet and keys in her purse.

This product is definitely better if you get it form fitting to retain the heat. Being that I do not like tight clothing it also works if you layer with the thermoball. Doesn't do a great job if the weather is very cold and you're going to walk around but works great to do errands etc. Love the fact that its not bulky and is comfortable wearing it in the car.

The jacket is warm, feels good, and is light weight. My problem is on the quality. I have had to return my jacket after only a few months to get a replacement. I would say I take care of my stuff rather well, and have never had any problems with jackets breaking or falling apart before. With this jacket while trying to zip it up all the way, the threading that holds the zipper teeth pulled out. I've never had this happen on any jacket, and I have some that are going on 15 years old. Another problem I had was with the stitching, which had come loose or undone. When I went to return the jacket, I didn't have the receipt since I bought it several months before and due to the "lifetime" warranty. Well I was told without a receipt I would have to have the jacket sent in to be looked at. Well since my wife did that with another jacket and it took 7 weeks for them only to "MAIL" a gift card to her, I didn't want to do that. First they wanted me to buy another jacket, then let me give them mine so they could send it in for a refund. That wasn't to my liking, so then they went looking in the store for another jacket, but none in the size and color that I wanted. So now they said I would have to turn my jacket in. That wasn't going to work, so after a long bit of negotiating they finally searched for a replacement to be shipped from another store. Almost took an hour for this to occur. I really wasn't impressed. So anyone who that doesn't keep their receipt, you're going to probably have hassles for a replacement unless you don't mind waiting a good amount of time. I should mention that my purchase was linked to my north face account, and still I needed a receipt. For a jacket upwards of 100 dollars I would expect for the thing not to fall apart so easily. I'm really sick of companies selling their products at a high premium, only to have them made in poor countries. Passing some savings on to us would be nice. Perhaps bring back production in the USA.

Nice coat. Extremely warm .

Bought the conquer blue and love the color. Also very light and warm, but not too warm for hiking in late fall/winter!

I got this as a gift for my husband and he loved it!!! It is so light, and perfect color with jeans and other casual outfits. He loves it!

I use the coat outdoors for recreation- it keeps me warm and I do not need to over layer underneath

Like North Face. Have other products and they are high quality

Every one like it

I own several NorthFace products because I think they make some wonderful items. The thermoball jacket is one of my go to pieces in most conditions. I use it for hiking, snowboarding and just casual wear in the cool to cold Tahoe nights. It's the most versatile of the jackets I own. I love it because it packs down small and stows in its own pocket. The warmth I get from it is unparalleled. My only complaint about this jacket is the stitching. Several of the stitches on the quilted pattern have come apart. As in, the thread is gone and the seems are just open. And this wasn't caused from any sort of falling or scuffing. I find this to be somewhat acceptable in a jacket.

Great lightweight jacket for warmth when it starts getting cold. Easy to pack and comfortable. Runs large - usually take XXL and the XL fits great. Love the jacket.

I wear the jacket hiking, taking the dog for a walk, and to/from work. The jacket is super light and comfortable, fits great. Really like the zippers and the look.

I ordered a large size, but felt it a little big. I went to a local store to try a medium size and it was too tight restricting movement, so I finally decided to stay with the size originally ordered. I live in Boston and find that the jacket does a great job in weather over 40F (4C) wearing just a t-shirt underneath as long as there is no windchill. It also does a good job protecting from wind, but start feeling cool inside once the outside temperature reaches the 30s or below (3C or below). That's when it's better to wear a sweater underneath. I'm overall satisfied with my purchase despite all of that.

I love the color and the fit is good. Better than other brands.

very nice jacket

This is the second Northface Jacket I have bought for my son. He loves the look and the comfort of the Jacket.

I'm a casual user (I also wear it for mountain biking, eventually). I really think this jacket has it almost all. It brings tremendous warmth for such a super lightweight product. I only wish it had an inner pocket.

I love this coat. This is my second Thermoball jacket. I know this jacket will keep me warm and dry in the harsh Chicago winter. This is a great product that is extremely comfortable.

GOt this as a gift for my brother. He is very active physically..runs daily! He loved it!
