Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka II

Nice coat! Super warm and fits nicely. I'm 5' 4" and a 4/6 in clothing. I got the medium and fits great with a little extra room for layers. I love the vaporous grey color but I've already gotten it a bit dirty-it's the trade off of having an almost white coat!

Awesome....love the color....

I bought this as a gift for my wife who is always cold. We had gotten a very similar parkas from NF for each of our 3 older daughters. This was a no brainer. All of them have loved this jacket, from the deep north of Michigan to those who live in VA and have a shorter winter. It keeps them all looking good while also keeping them very warm and dry throughout the winter season.

I wear it walking the cold, windy streets of downtown Chicago

Great warm coat for cold Wisconsin winters.

I like it a lot!

Got this for my wife to keep warm in what ever Michigan weather throws our way. So far so good.

Great coat for cold Wisconsin winters.

I'm really happy with this coat. It's very comfortable and stylish. I made the right choice with this purchase. Thank you Northface.

I'm very happy with the fit and value. Great coat for a great price!

Very good. I like this colther.thank your

When I first got the coat, I was sort of let down, thinking to myself, how I paid all this money for this coat and it didn't look like it was going to be warm enough. Boy was I shocked the day I wore it and it -5 degrees at the bus stop. Everyone else looked like they were freezing and jumping up and down to stay warm but I just put my hood up and the coat did the rest. I zipped the coat up but needed to get to my shoulder bag, which I was wearing under my coat. I just unzipped the bottom zipper and was able to get my bus pass out when the bus arrived. I really am very happy with my purchase so far. I usually take a large size. Glad I bought the Extra large because I could fit bulky sweaters underneath without it feeling too tight. Plus it's light-weight and very breathable. The only thing I think would have been even nicer, if it had a removable, zip-out lining. I highly recommend this coat to anyone. Thank you. Ms Weiner

This is the perfect winter coat covers me up enough to keep me warm when it's sub zero temperatures and it's stylish and I get lots of compliments

This coat is super warm without being stifling. Below zero temps and biting windchill were no match for the coat, I felt like I hadn't even gotten out from under my covers in bed. It is bulky and luckily for me the sleeves are a little short, but the little cinch in the waist keeps it from looking totally formless and I love that the fur can be zipped off if that's not your style (but it's growing on me)

This was my first parka purchase from North Face and I'm more than pleased. The coat is comfortable , stylish and make you feel like you're wrapped in a heated blanket. I highly recommend this coat!

This is a great coat! I live in Chicago and it has done a great job of keeping me warm on my daily commute. I have the forest green and love the color. I keep getting compliments. It cinches at the waistline which I find to be very flattering.

I love everything about this jacket. It is what I expected and more. It is nice enough for me to wear to the office in Boston. Yet casual enough to wear to weekend hockey games for my kids. I thought it would be hard to drive in, but it's not so bad. Slightly restricting when turning in parking lots but great on the open road. Perfect hood coverage and I live that it's adjustable in the bag. The dual zipper is a plus too. Especially when sitting down. I would recommend and buy this product again.

Living in Chicago is really important that the jacket delivers on its warmth. After having 3 different coats this has been the only one warm enough to wear it all the time.

I love this jacket so much that I purchased it in two colors, the black and green. This jacket keeps me extremely warm and is comfortable and stylish. I have no complaints at all. Perfect!

I bought this coat just in the nick of time. The weather in NYC was record breaking this past weekend. The temperature was 0 degrees F the wind chill factor of -20 degrees F. I had to walk home from work for a half hour through snow and wind and this coat held up. I was wearing a long sleeve thermal and a hoodie underneath. I also wore my Northface beenie. I was sweating by the time I got home. Recommended this coat to another friend who can attest to the same experience. The fitted cuffs are made of a soft, stretch material that is amazing at blocking out the cold air and wind. Im 5'1" and find the length to be perfect, just above my knees.

So I debated long and hard for the perfect jacket. Given how pricey North Face is, I had high expectations. I live in the East Coast and wanted a coat that I could wear to work and not look completely frumpy but also one that would be durable enough to wear on a long, cold walk. I love how warm this coat is while still being breathable. I am still on the fence about the design of the inner lining (why couldn't they have chosen a more normal looking color is all i am saying...) and the fit is a bit snug. I am 5"5 and 150lbs, and i have a booty and its a big snug there. =) All in all though, i think this coat hits the mark for practicallity and style.

lOVE IT. WAS DISAPOINTED IT WENT ON SALE RIGHT AFTER PURCHASE AND I MISSED THE REFUND PERIOD BY A FEW DAYS. BUT DIDNT TAKE AWAY FROM THE COAT.

I am truly amazed how perfect this coat is! It's durable and so very warm, fits true to size I could not be happier with my purchase. I was nervous about purchasing this coat on-line but I am so very happy and have NO regrets! The coat is made so well I couldn't believe how warm it is!

I brought this specifically for work because I had to travel to Syracuse (-14) from New York (23) and I must say, TNF done what it's supposed to do keeping me warm, snug, and protected from the weather.

I loved the coat as soon as I put it on, it fits well at all the right places, and my husband keeps complimenting at how great the coat looks on me. He is so jealous now and wants one now for himself:p The coat is warm, water/wind proof, one of the best purchase I made!
