Customer Reviews The North Face McMurdo Parka III - Tall

Wore this jacket for everyday use, commuting to work, school, etc. Super warm and cozy. The down insulation provides superior protection from the cold without being too bulky. Excellent jacket.

The parka is amazing !! sewing quality is excellent! I am very pleased with my purchase

Warm and comfortable. Good for temperatures below freezing. Good fit (5'11", 185#).

Extremely warm, comfortable, stylish coat perfect for everything from walking around Boston to Skiing

This parka is truly warm and amazing. I'm 6'4 weigh 190 and ordered the Large in the Khaki color. And it's still big. Kind of wish I went with a medium. The Khaki color will go with any color options and it's stylish. Many pockets to keep your belongings and what not. Will be keeping this coat for the years to come. Can't wait to explore and travel in the cold with this.

My son is in his second year at college in northern New York, this year the weather is more cold and snow is more heavy , this Parka saved his life, the warmth and wind protection stands up to cold New York weather.

Very warm parka , goose down fill makes a difference keeping me warm , have had other coats but always needed an extra layer of fleece to feel warm, this parka is perfect for our weather, even when it's -30 C outside with wind this keeps me very warm

Amazing Parka for a great price

Nice and warm

I grew up and still live in New York. With our insanely quickly changing climate, this coat is the best one I've ever had. It's stylish and doesn't look dumb or puffy like cheap childish brands. It's extremely warm to the point that I could sweat even while running in the cold. It's waterproof and windproof to battle against the New York rainstorms. It dries quickly. The fur on the hood is very nice, and there's a mask in the hood that if necessary can slip over the face to protect against winds that can dry your skin. The coat fits just right for me, and it's worth the money.

You only need minimal mid and baselayers while wearing the McMurdo. If I knew how warm a goose down parka was, I would have invested in one long ago, very happy. This jacket makes me look forward to Winnipeg winters now.

My wife surprised me with this jacket and I couldn't be happier. It fits true to size and is warm. Looks great on!

Bought this jacket to deal with those very cold days when the temps drop and the wind blows. This parka easily blocks the wind, seems relatively water resistant and insulates well. Hood and collar help to further protect from the elements, hood has a face warmer loop that is convenient to use especially when facing into the wind. The parka is well made, zippers were aligned and worked properly and the only thing I found was the front flap snaps were a little stiff and hard to use but seem to be improving with time and use.

This is my immediate family's third McMurdo Parka. We love this coat!

Just received it and after checking it out I was impressed. I was a bit iffy about spending this amount on a winter jacket but after I received it I was relieved. Well worth the cost. Put it on and went out in 20 degree weather with a 20+ wind for over an hour and it was great. Couldn't feel the wind or the cold at all. I especially like the built-in gaiter in the hood. That will come in handy. I also like the full length flap over the zipper which can be fastened with a snap, not velcro which always seems to get stuck to itself while putting on or taking off. This should be an excellent winter coat for a long time.

I walk my dog in sub zero temperatures with nothing but a t-shirt under this jackets and I'm roasting. GET IT!

I have been looking since last year to find the right jacket and believe that this McMurdo coat is the right one to replace my old Eddie Bauer. I bought several other brands only to return them because of the fit. My old coat is an old Eddie Bauer and is a Large size that fit me right from the first day I bought it. The McMurdao fits me perfectly. Everything I have tried on, including the North Face was too small in a Large and had to go up to the extra large to get the right fit. I am 5'9" and weigh 174 lbs. The only reason, I think, that I need the XL is my 45" chest plus what used to fit in a large years ago is today an extra large. Im no expert but this McMurdo has the feel of quality in its material and fit.

Great for cold, wet weather

I recently moved from Arizona to Wisconsin. When I wear this parka, I feel as if I'm wearing the warmth of the desert wrapped inside a puffy, windproof cloud. As a bonus, I also look like Han Solo in "Empire Strikes Back" when he's on Hoth.
