Customer Reviews The North Face McMurdo Parka III - Tall

I love that item. Fits great and I got fast shipping from us. Thank you again

Super warm coat and the hood And face shield make it an easy coat to just throw on and go.

Very good jacket

I tend to travel a lot in my line of business so I need a Coat to fill all my needs when I'm in cities with frigid temperatures; this McMurdo Parka is exceptional in Which I don't need to put on layers of clothing. This Parka keeps me warm outdoors at all times

My grandson loves it! He's 17 and looks sharp in it. Grammy

Had it on in -51 degree temperature during the Polar Vortex and I will never wear anything different again. Super comfortable and warm.

This coat is a true hawk fighter. We had negative 50 below wind-chills and this cost kept me nice an warm.

The McMurdo is a very warm jacket. I have had my McMurdo for a couple of years now, and it is still keeping me warm in the winter. The jacket is on the heavy side, but when it is really cold outside I stay warm. Earlier this year when the wind chill was below zero, the jacket kept me warm with a mid-layer fleece. I find that this jacket is a little too warm for me when the weather starts hovering around 40 F degrees. Then I switch to my Thermoball and Mountain Light Goretex shell.

Just came from living in the desert to live in canada. Best coat i couldve expected

Keeps you warm, nice hood and feature set.

Listen, if you are anything like me, you spent far too many days researching and trying to find the right winter coat for you. Please. Save your time and buy this parka. CONS just to get them over with: YES the zipper is annoying, but seriously spend < 5 minutes to calmly tinker with it and you'll be set. I had problems with it for the first few days but soon after that I figured out how to make the zipper happy, and I haven't had an issue with it since. FYI: Not necessarily a con, but the breast pockets only open on the sides with zippers, not on the top with velcro like the bottom pockets. Not an issue at all, just ~mildly~ disappointed when I noticed it after a couple days. Now for the PROS: This coat is incredibly well made, if you take care of it, it will take care of you. We are currently day 3 into the "Polar Vortex" up here in Minneapolis and this parka is taking it like an absolute champ. Any part that isn't covered by the coat(lower legs, feet, fingers) are pretty dang cold but if the parka is covering it, it will be warm. I have taken on -27 degree weather(no, not windchill, actual temperature) wearing nothing but a medium sweatshirt and this coat without even flinching, even after being outside for 30 minutes walking to class. Specifics: -Hood is very warm. Faux-fur on the edge is super soft and cuts out the wind very well. The built in face mask is a LIFESAVER. Ignore all comments that complain about wind coming up from the back of the hood, seriously, they must be wearing it wrong. It is toasty. -The 550 Fill Goose Down makes it feel like you are wrapped up in a comforter, it compresses when you touch it, but rises back to its original shape right as soon as you remove pressure. It is very warm, and is consistent throughout the entire parka. -Shell of coat is completely wind proof. I have not felt a bit of the 20+ mph wind here, even on the zipper. Seriously, I would not have lasted the winter without this parka. BUY THIS PARKA!!!

I love the coat! At first I bought the medium one thinking that it would fit perfectly because all my previous coats were all that size but turned out to be too small. So I exchanged it for the large and it fits much better and it gives me more room especially wearing a fleece or a sweatshirt under the coat. Also, a little con is that it's a little pricey.

Very nice very warm coat

It's currently -57*F (wind chill) here in Minneapolis and the dog had to "go"... I had NO chill with this parka on. I believe this parka could handle even colder temps.

Currently it is -2 without windchill where I am. I have a t-shirt and this coat on and outside I am still comfortable. It keeps me warm and the facemask in the hood helps with that. The wind has not gotten through the coat neither. I cannot suggest this cost enough for winter weather.

Super warm and comfortable. Zipper can be hard to line up at times. But it got me through 5 degree weather.

My husband loves this coat! Fits perfect and keeps him warm in this cold New England weather.

I do like the neck gaiter option... but it would be difficult to use a scarf concurrently so I don't know how useful it will actually be. It is very warm and comfortable.

Best for Chicago winter

Bought it for my boyfriend and he love, love, loved this coat

I bought this for my dad, he loves it, it makes him warm in a snow storm.
