Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

Kind of disappointed, maybe I should have looked at the cold rating but man...this coat is not nearly warm enough for the zero degree temperatures we've been experiencing in Minnesota this winter, especially in the arms. And boy...zippers on NF coats and jackets are always a challenge, I've had to replace two zippers in past years.

Keeps me warm in 20 degrees (Fahrenheit) walks to work. I would buy it again. As a curvy petite woman (5'2") though sometimes I feel drowned (not as much as a parka though)

Nice quality fabric, warm in cool temps.

I purchased this coat for my 14 year old step daughter who is part of the population of youth who refuse to wear coats even below freezing. She has worn the coat every single day since and loves it.

Looks really sharp. Not as warm as I thought it would be. I did notice a thread coming a little loose within the first month of owning.

Best jacket I have ever owned. Bought for NYC kept me warm even in the snow

Nice color- I do not like the 2 large bright white embroidered logos. My last North Face jacket had smaller logos in a more subtle thread. "Dry-vent" and "600" are also embroidered on the sleeves in bright white. Why would anyone want these?

Bought this in my usual size, medium. Loved the look, wore it one time as soon as I got in my car and went to drive, it was way too tight in the chest and in the arms. Haven't even wanted it again hanging in my closet collecting dust. Sport Check would not allow me to return it

I love this jacket and highly recommend it!

I'm 5'1 and got a xs. I love it! It really does keep me warm no matter how cold it is. My favorite jacket :)

Worn this in NH and Lake Placid for a winter trip on the 1st week of February and it did not disappoint. This parka kept me warm with only 2 layers of clothing underneath on a single digit weather. It was perfect for the weather and at the same time it looked cute and fashionable.

Very warm and the green color is so beautiful. Highly recommend it.

Not durable. Outer layer had scratches and snags from doing basic things like getting caught on a bush in a park or carrying a log. Thought it would be a environment-proof as their older models.

This jacket is great for being out and about around my college campus and for walks in the city. I love the style and it keeps me warm.

Nice, hood is a bit short but is warm in frigid temps and keeps you dry in the snow!

I purchased this coat for a trip to Iceland. It kept me warm and dry the whole time!

This coat runs small in the shoulders, leading to a tight fit in the underarms that makes thicker sweaters uncomfortable to wear. I got caught in a light rain for 30 mins while traveling in Norway, and every seam let in water. Every later down to my skin was wet. So disappointed.

Purchase for my daughter and she loves it!

The color is beautiful. The coat is lightweight, but so warm! It runs a little large, but I don't mind because it doesn't bind when I wear layers. To be honest, I've never paid this much for a winter coat before, but it was worth every penny.

It was good

Winter sports and fashion

I finally splurged and bought one since they had my fav color, the petrol blue color. Luckily I had a coupon too. It is so warm/comfy/sleeves are long enough for my arms! I am 5'9" 140 ish and the small was perfect. I wish the fake fur on the hood looked a little better, kind of ratty but I still love it and hope they have new colors next year so I can buy another one

I had high hopes for this cost but it started shedding feathers almost immediately. That shouldn't be the case for such an expensive coat.

Very lightweight and super crazy warm

This coat is the perfect length the double zip is clutch for giving more wiggle room for legs while walking/hiking. It's super warm but much more lightweight than my previous parka. Just roomy enough to fit a sweater or hoodie along with my weighted vest. I have a size small and am 5'8", 132lbs. The green color is a bit of a chameleon and changes shade depending on the lighting, but is a fun alternative to black/grey on these bleak winter days.
