Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka II

This Parka is gorgeous. I just received mine in green. It fits so well and looks great. Best of all, for me, is that I got to wear this tonight outside in around 35degrees C, and I only had a long thin sweater underneath (and no gloves), and I was very warm in it! Very pleased. And it's beautifully made too.

This coat is great. I travel on train and bus to work every single morning and it keeps me warm and dry. I have worn it up in the mountains and have had great success with it. The hood was slightly a little big for my head so I had to remove the fur because it would block my vision. The main zipper is sometimes hard to get it to start to zip. You really have to pay attention to it. Also it will start to unzip from the bottom up which is slightly annoying.

This is my first winter in Boston (MA) and I am from Spain...so my winter it is very different than this. After having nigthmares with the cold that is coming (the last winter was the worst in the last 40 years...), and researching every brand of winter coats (Canada goose, Woolrich, Patagonia...etc) and their fills, their weights...etc, I decided to buy this one of North Face and I am very very happy with my decision, for now...I think it is the best choice between price and quality.

This is my favorite winter jacket I have ever owned. I live in New England and thus am almost always in cold weather. This jacket was a life saver last winter. I can layer and still be able to move. It is stylish, not too puffy, and so warm!

I have never owned a north face product. I just love it. I am always cold and when I walk the dog I really block the wind. Looking forward to wearing it this winter.

Perfect for walking across campus or standing outside watching the kids at work!

Very warm jacket, very lightweight, and very comfortable. Everything I'm looking for in a jacket. I've owned quite a few winter jackets before, but this is by far the most comfortable!

So stylish ! Perfect for the cold and windy Chicago winters. Warm, but not too bulky.

I go to college up north and this parka is a life saver. The fit is perfect - it is stylish and flattering while also thick and warm for extra cold weather conditions. Love it!

This jacket is perfect for winters in the Pacific Northwest! Finding the perfect all around jacket for Portland has been difficult. I did a lot of window shopping for a jacket that would suit all of my needs: Waterproof for the very wet fall and winter seasons, warm enough for the bitter cold and clear days but fitted and flattering enough to dress up or down. This jacket is going to be just the ticket! The down insulation is fantastic, trapping body heat when standing and waiting for the bus. With all of my other jackets I end up freezing once I stop moving, even with multiple layers on. The rain is of course my biggest issue when choosing a jacket, especially with down insulation (which tends to do poorly when wet). The North Face uses great waterproof material on their jackets. I haven't had this jacket for very long, but I've owned a different North Face jacket with a similar waterproof exterior for a couple of years and it has stood the test of time with constant wear and wet weather. It does tend to lose some of its waterproofing abilities over time, but if you follow the proper care instructions you can definitely revive the waterproofing and extend the lifespan. I'm very petite at 5'0", with broad shoulders and narrow waste. This makes it challenging to find jackets that are comfortable in the shoulders, but fitted enough in the waste to give me some shape. The XS fits me perfectly in the shoulders and the cinched, adjustable waistline gives me a fitted enough look to not look like a marshmallow! It is long enough to cover part of my thighs and booty adding to the weather protection. It is comfortable to move around or sit down in. I'm really happy with this jacket so far, but I'm especially excited to test it out when the weather gets really cold in a couple of months.

Originally got this jacket for Christmas last year in a medium and it just felt too big especially around the waist. Got a small this season and it fits much better, very warm and perfect for cold weather when you also want to look stylish.

Got this Jacket for my daughter, it's exactly what it say it would be, we absolutely love it.

I love this jacket. It keeps me so warm and comfortable. I give it a 10/10.

Well for a long time I wanted a NorthFace coat, but couldn't find a style to fit me. In stores I could not find my sizes so I never got one until recently, I got my coat and I love it, it fits me in the chest area where I am full at. It also flatters my shape, I am so happy its not heavy and I can still where something else under it. I also am looking forward to purchasing the Women Dunagiri Jacket, I Love the fact that the coats come in XXL, you should also have your stores carry a few of them also.

This is the warmest coat I've ever bought. Super stylish and super comfy!

Great to wear in cold wind, snow, and rain. Great for as well and very warm.

Very warm. Love the material

This coat is great for cold outdoor events ( Football) on the East Coast.

I purchased this coat for my daughter in college. Her college is far north of New York State. It is perfect for the temperatures in her college region.

The coat fits beautifully... really do love my product!

I'm using this product as my winter coat, and it has exceeded expectations. Me and my husband are going to Russia in January so I'm hoping this coat keeps me nice and warm!

It's a Christmas gift, so my mother hasn't tried it yet, but I tried it on and it feels very comfortable and warm. I think she will love it.

I bought this coat for my daughter to keep her warm on campus in Ithaca, NY. She's fully prepared so bring it on winter!

This is coat is so warm! When I'm wearing it, I don't feel the cold, harsh winds of the environment. It is the perfect winter parka. I am 5'4" 115 pounds and ordered the XS. There is still room for layers underneath, but it's not too large by any means.

I love this jacket! It is so warm and so stylish! The Juniper Teal is amazing and looks beautiful! I highly recommend it!
