Customer Reviews The North Face Arctic Parka

I own a previous version of the Nuptse jacket and after many years and many patch jobs, I still have it and still love it. It was time to buy a new one and unfortunately this version just didn't meet my needs. The hood mechanism is poorly designed and does not stay folded and the standup collar does not have a fleece lining like my previous jacket. Along with these two issues, it was just too big. I love The North Face brand so it was disappointing that this did not work for me. I would still recommend the product.

Love this product. Highly recommend it.

I'am planning to go Hi king in Vermont.Moving back to the east coast I was looking for a jacket like this one. I can't wait to use it in the snow.I love the quality of this brand.

Bought the product because I liked how it looked but was surprised by how warm and weatherproof it was.

My daughter loves the retro fit and style. Liked by all her friends.

It was so hard to find a warm jacket in Los Angeles. I finally found this one online. It's perfect for 5am walks in LA but gets too warm later in the day. Used it in the Mountains and I was toasty, didn't really have to put on another layer. I think this is too bulky and hot for hiking but will be perfect for evening fireside hangouts.

I am old enough to have worn the original down jackets that came out in the 70s. I love the throwback boxy, hefty look and feel of this jacket. It's thick and warm--very cozy. The slant pockets with pulldown zippers are authentic and usable. Speaking of zippers, the contrasting sturdy black zippers on the white jacket look fantastic. I also like the zippered interior pocket. The standup collar that houses the fold-away hood (great for unexpected rain) keeps my neck warm without being too snug. A feature I love and haven't found in other jackets is the dual elastic + Velcro adjustable cuffs. I can't say enough good things about this jacket. I only wish it were available in more colors.

I recently got accepted to University of Utah and upon visiting the school last December and not being prepared, this was my first purchase for my upcoming college time

I love this puffy! On some windy winter days in SLC, it's really helped me out. I've also worn it at the crags or the gym and felt fly. It's warm enough for some outdoor days and cool/comfortable enough for around the city.

Awesome product, great in the extreme weather, very dependable.

Love it! So stylish and warm. Perfect for this semi chilly weather in SoCal weather. If you don't like it short or want more coverage of the lower half of your body, this jacket is not for you.

Very stylish and comfortable. The jacket is sure puffy and I think it would handle very cold weather. The jacket rests right at the waist. It feels short. It also looks short. I’m returning it for this reason. I want a jacket that sits slightly lower and provides more coverage.

This jacket is great and so stylish

Living in New York, I needed a jacket that was both warm and versatile. After trying numerous jackets of different brands, I came across this one. I purchased the jacket in white and after four months it has yet to stain. I wear it to class, to events, and to dinners. As a journalist who is always on the go, I've found this jacket to serve me very well. As a picky girl who loves fashion, I've found this jacket to serve looks as well :)

This is the best jacket ever. Wore it in Lake Tahoe and it was perfect and so warm in the snow! It's also trendy nowadays!

This jacket is very short. It's very puffy. I felt like a stuffed chair! I had to return it.

This coat is super warm. It is probably the warmest jacket that I own. Highly recommend!

Use it outside bird watching, very warm, lightweight. Ordered xxl too big sent back xl as fine.

I had a 19996 jacket that has survive the many years of Chicago winter weather. However, it had begun to lose feathers. When I saw that it came back, I had to jump on it and get it before they went away again! I was torn on what size to get so I went with a bigger size. Fits a bit big so I might have to exchange it for one size smaller. But still very happy with it!

I've been looking for an amazing cropped puffer coat for ages and finally stumbled upon this coat and girlllllllllll it's the best thing since sliced bread! This jacket is super comfortable and very light weight which I love because I'm 5"3 and hate feeling weighed down by heavy clothes. If you're a size medium and want to be able to wear a sweater or hoodie under your jacket, get a large. The large fits just like a medium. I wear this jacket everyday. It hits up to my waist which isn't great because I hate wearing jackets that hit below the waist because they feel tight and restrictive when you sit down on the train. I would definitely buy this jacket again. Worth the money!

This jacket lets cold air down at the lower back because it is a couple inches too short. I am only 5 foot 7. So you need to be shorter than that to wear this coat. I wish the copper was in xxl or plus sizes. Maybe it came in that, but not by the time I was looking to buy a coat. Also I wish it had a zipper placket cover that snaps in case I don't want to zip the jacket. (Do not like Velcro - although this coat had neither). I liked many things about the coat, but just couldn't deal with it being too short.

I love it everywhere I go people asking me where I got it from

Use this coat casually as a winter coat. Works well and is much much warmer than it looks.

I literally wear this jacket everyday !

I love this jacket because it's super warm but can also fit layers underneath ! The style is beautiful and the silver is so nice
