Customer Reviews The North Face Metropolis Parka III

Love this jacket - its warm, cozy, stylish and I love the color. 4 stars because the zipper sometimes gets stuck.

I love this jacket however I don't like that it sheds so bad and the ends of the sleeves are uncomfortable and my shirt falls down past the end of the sleeve.

I just hate that the hood does nit stay on. The snaps are not secure enough

Generally, I would wear a size small, but this is a snugger fitting coat when I need to wear a thin fleece pullover and a vest -- which I need to do for below-freezing temps. I chose the medium which is actually a bit too roomy, but the sleeves are just the right length. It makes me look a bit plump in the middle when I'm actually very thin in the middle. Oh well it does the ONE thing that I needed - give me freedom of shoulder movement and is lightweight so that my neck doesn't hurt on long walks which end up giving me headaches. A lightweight winter coat that is constructed correctly is priceless. (Just wish is was a little less pricey ;) ) I think the hood is a odd design as the sides are too open on windy days when the hood is up, but otherwise is great.

Thank you! I got this coat with the healthcare workers discount. It keeps me warm while going to work at 6am and taking my calming walks on days off. Only downside is hood unsnaps too easily. More than once I have had to carry it home in my gloves instead of keeping my head warm!

The coat is incredibly warm without being heavy, and very flattering. Living in winter weather that is often in the teens or colder, this coat enables you to never think twice about what you need to wear to stay warm, no matter the occasion. The snaps on the attachable hood do not work, so if you're looking for a warm hood with your jacket, this may not be the one for you. I'm 5'11"and 140 pounds and ordered a medium. The coat feels a bit roomy and if I had to order it again, I'd think about sizing down.

Good coat. Just the hood doesn't stay on.

Love the feel of this jacket! So comfortable and very warm for Michigan winters! 4 stars because the hood is awful and never stays on.

I've gotten so many compliments on this coat. It's fairly lightweight, and I love wearing it over a hoodie or a bulky sweater. My only complaint is that the hood falls off very easily - don't expect to hang it by the hood (there's a loop for that), but even trying to pull it over my head with my hair in a bun, if I pull too aggressively the hood will unbutton. I wish it had a zipper in addition to the buttons for the hood. For sizing context, I'm 5'7 with a small bust and larger hips and ordered a large. I like the extra room to be able to layer.

Too expensive for the value

I love this jacket other than the crazy amount of feathers that are constantly leaking from it

This has become my everyday jacket. I truly love it. It keeps me warm like I had hoped. It's very lightweight.

Love this jacket! Very stylish, comfortable, and most importantly, keeps me warm! I agree with others about the hood snaps not being the most effective and the small feathers that protrude to the outside. But otherwise, I love it.

I love the jacket, but the hood "snap away" design is terrible. It comes apart so easily! Sometimes it will completely detach when I try to pull it up. I would much rather prefer a zipper or at least more durable snaps!

I love the jacket and it's warm. My only complaint is the feathers keep coming out.

I love this coat for its warmth and length. I've been wanting a long coat for our cold Wisconsin winters and this works well to keep my legs warm too. However, for the price of this coat the hood attachments are cheap plastic and not even a regular metal button type attachment. The hood detaches easily when I don't want it to and for the price this is unacceptable.

Very comfortable and great quality jacket! I know that this will last me for years and stay in great condition.

Coldest weather comfort.

Love the look and comfort. The snaps on the detachable hood do not keep the hood attached to my coat. The hood is constantly falling off .

The hood fell off so many times, I stopped attaching it.... I wish I could wear it with the hoody, but its a lost cause....

Its a stylish comfortable jacket. The only thing I'd have to complain about is something I'm not sure can be fixed. The feathers protruding from jacket.

I love the jacket! The buttons to keep the hood on kept popping off so I had to use super glue. The hood is my least favorite part.

I love this coat, it's really warm and perfect for Chicago winters. The only issue I have is that the hood snaps off easily.

I use this jacket in the cold, best for me in temps 15-30 degrees. I bought it big to be able to layer under it.

Love this coat, I get so many compliments. Love that the hood is removable but the snaps come apart very easily so the hood doesn't stay on well.
