Customer Reviews The North Face New Outerboroughs Parka

This is a great coat and will keep me warm in the winter. The only thing was when i purchaced the coat i noticed one of the pockets already had a hole in it. Luckily i know how to sew so it's perfect now!

This jacket fits perfectly, is stylish, but also very functional. I wanted a jacket that would protect me from the wind and give me the option for fur around the hood which will keep me extra warm in the winter and this jacket is it! The sleeves are also the perfect length (not too long like most other jackets), it has warm and soft lining in the sleeves for your hands, plenty of pockets, and a warm and soft closure that comes high above the neck in case you need to really protect from some harsh wind and temperatures. This was really built to keep you warm and the green color is very flattering.

I will use every day! Winter time

It's still too warm to wear this coat, but I'm very excited for winter. I was looking for a longer jacket that was waterproof (not water resistant) and would protect me through cold winds. It's high quality and will definitely keep me warm through snow and wind. When zipped all the way up, I'm protected! It fits nicely, and I can adjust the sinching at the sides for a slimmer fit. I love the color options - I went with the navy. The fur hood lining is also a cute touch!

Love the way the coat feels and looks. very comfertable and I know it will be warm once the cold weather hits!

Took me a while to pull this trigger on this coat, but am SO glad that I did. The outer boroughs parka is beautiful and so well made. Flattering fit and lots of great pockets.

I live in Chicago, and this jacket was incredible for the cold weather.

I think this jacket is great for the winter weather that's approaching. It's so soft, very comfortable, and really really cute.

This seems like the perfect coat for those windy cold Chicago winters. I haven't put it to the test yet but it feels gr at in front of the AC unit :) The fit is perfect (I'm 5'10, 145lb and got a small) and the color so pretty. The hood makes you look like an eskimo when your zipped up, which seems perfect for those below zero days. Very good quality, yet stylish parka. Highly recommend!

I absolutely LOVE this coat! It's extremely warm, and very fashionable; goes with everything. On the coldest of days, this is your best bet to keep warm, with no worries. I live in NYC, where the winters are BRUTAL, but even during a snow storm or blizzard: I gladly battle the weather with this coat: it's fabulous!

Will be perfect for cold Michigan Winters and beautiful modern navy color...

I bought this coat for New England winters. The material is heavy, which I personally don't mind; it's reassuring for the bitter cold days ahead. The salesperson in the store said that she has it and sometimes it is almost "too warm" which again, is reassuring for the low temps ahead. This jacket is long and covers a lot of long cardigan sweaters that I wear in the winter, so that was a plus for me -- I feel disheveled when my sweaters hang below my jacket. The mitten feature on the sleeves is also great for those quick walks outside with the dog where you don't want to bring a million things with you. I had concerns that it was going to be too tight in the neck/ lower face area when I zipped it all the way up (it felt tight in the store, but I was willing to let this go because of the other qualities that I really liked). I also saw other reviews stating this as an issue. For whatever reason, the jacket that I ordered was completely fine and fits comfortably in the neck/ face area when fully zipped. If you want a real-deal, heavy duty winter jacket, this seems like the one.

First and foremost the Taupe color is amazing however I would match my other half when we both wore our winter jackets- so I switched to the navy! But its a really nice almost nautical navy. My only issue is the sizing- I normally wear an small- xsmall. I first bought the extra small as I wanted it to fit well and look professional, however it would be too small. Ended up purchasing a small that way I can wear a sweatshirt underneath! Great jacket pockets are perfectly placed can't wait to ware it! I'm 5'5 123 lbs

I'm 5' 4" 112 lbs and went with a size small (suggested by TrueFit). It looks stylish and feels nice to put on. The amount of pockets is awesome. Haven't tried it out yet since it's still August here in the Bay Area. The only complaints I have are that the sleeves are kind of long and it's difficult to zip up. I'm keeping it nonetheless!

Purchased this jacket after a large search for something perfect for my daughter to take to school back east for the winter months. She loved this jacket in the dark grey best. She felt like it flattered her, and she felt good in it. For reference, she is 5'6", an athletic size 10, shoulders are not too broad, and we kept the medium. The large was just a bit too large and oversized for her.

I bought this coat for my daughter who is heading to the East Coast for School. I wanted a coat that could withstand the winters, but was not too bulky. So far looks good. She will have to test it out when winter arrives. The only thing she had problems with, was the zippers. More human error than product so far.

Great coat for work in Toronto when winter arrives. Snow or rain, artic cold- you are ready for anything.

This is a gift for my mother in law. Once she get her correct size. I'm sure she will be happy with this jacket.

Beautiful Coat! A little heavy but amazing quality. Love that it has snap buttons instead of velcro!

She uses this coat on the very cold days. Even the days where it not as cold, she still wears it because it's comfortable.

I've had many name brand winter jackets but this one tops them all. It's really comfortable and warm. I live in the UP ( Upper Michigan) and it gets COLD so I needed something warm to get me through the winter and I finally found it! Thank you Northface for creating the perfect coat/jacket for me.

It was a gift for my wife.

I live in So. California and I know I probably won't need this much here but I love to travel and adventure out. This is perfect for the arctic and in locations where I might be traveling in the winter. It took me a while to find it in TNF red. It looks like TNF has discontinued it (why?!?). Luckily I found an online retailer who had it in the color AND size I needed. The only downside was that it was full price. I thought about it for a while and in the end decided to splurge. I received the parka today and it's gorgeous in person! The color is striking and the construction is high quality. I really like that TNF used a faux fur for the hood because honestly that is what was keeping me from buying Canada Goose. And the down feathers are responsibly sourced too. I got the XS and it fits perfectly on me. I am 5'7", 104lbs, 30C chest. I can wear maybe two layers underneath and be toasty. This parka is worth the money so if you're on the fence and need to invest in a parka, I would not hesitate to get this one. I have another Parka by Patagonia which I absolutely love too but I wanted a red one for that added pop of color in a sea of black coats in the winter.

Love this jacket! Everything I wanted and then some!!

I love this parka! I've never had anything this warm! It kept me warm and comfortable even in the extreme temps we get in Boston. No wind penetrates it either. Loveee
