Customer Reviews The North Face New Outerboroughs Parka

It is a great jacket for cold weather in rainy days. it is perfect style especially when you go to school or go to work. The zipper is kind of a hustle to get it together and set it up other than that I love the jacket I will recommend it.

I use this coat for everyday wear and it holds up great! I'm never too hot while wearing it and it's light weight which is a great plus. Rain never seems in and rolls right off of it. Very happy with this purchase. The craftsman ship is impeccable. I can tell the coat will last for years to come. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for cold winters, wet weather, windy days, and comfort!

I work at a school in southern New Hampshire and for recess we have to stand out outside. Through the wind, snow, and rain this coat is amazing. It keeps me warm during the hours I have to be outside and it stands up to the unpredictable weather. I'm very happy with this purchase. I did a lot of research before I decided on this one, and I'm glad I chose it. Thanks North Face!

My husband bought this for me because my old parka was not in very cold weather. I love this parka especially in very cold and windy mornings of DC. Size fits perfectly and feels very warm even when temperature is in single digit.

Love that this jacket is cut slimly with the snap waistband. Very warm parka. Am loving this so far!

I didn't realize until I made this purchase the difference a sturdy coat can make during harsh winter cold. I would absolutely recommend this one, it doesn't look bulky at all and keeps me very warm in the cold NY weather.

I was hesitant to splurge on this but it is absolutely worth the $$. This jacket is perfect for the cold weather months in Minnesota. I was wearing it out on a sub-zero day and was so warm and comfortable I tried convincing my friends to go on a longer walk with me. The jacket is a form hugging fit, which for me is great. I have a petite body shape and most jackets are too big in the chest area but this one is a perfect fit with just enough room for a thick sweater/light jacket underneath. It is a bit heavy but that doesn't bother me much, if I'm warm I feel it's worth it.

I didn't expect this jacket to be as lightweight and warm as it is. I live in upstate NY and the weather has been considerably cold this winter season, with windchill factors dropping below 20 degrees fahrenheit. This coat has kept me warm without me having to add additional layers. It even has an adjustable belt. I am very happy with this product.

I like this coat for casual cold weather daily use such as running errands, shopping, walking my sweet one-year old Labrador, walking five miles a day, travel by plane, travel by car because it can be sat on or squished if have no place to hang or lay it during travel plus it bounces back rather quickly and neatly. Neatness and cleanliness are a high priority of mine.

I really love this coat. It is warm and cozy especially when I have to take the dog out on the very cold mornings. I stayed warm and cozy! In the wind I didnt feel the cold at all!

What can I say about this jacket IT'S GREAT.. before I have to wear two to three layers of clothing to keep warm which was uncomfortable but with this jacket only one layer and I'm comfortable.... great in the rain and wind.....

I bought this jacket for my fianc for Christmas, she is someone who is always cold, all the time. So we went shopping for what we thought was the best jacket out there, a Canada goose. She tried it on and wasn't thrilled with it and then tried on this jacket and immediately said that this jacket feels warmer and more comfortable than the Canada goose. The only jackets I wear are north face, in my eyes they're the best product out there and that's exactly what I told my fianc before we went shopping

I have worn this jacket everyday since it arrived on my doorstep! I have never worn such a flattering winter jacket. This jacket gives you a nice shape while keeping warm in the winter. It was worth every penny!!

I needed a warm winter jacket and this is absolutely perfect for cold, snowy weather conditions. The parka is nicely insulated and definitely keeps me warm without having to wear a ton of layers underneath. I also like how the sleeves have a long lining inside them. It's comfortable and casual.

I LOVE this coat. Playing outside with the kids or standing in carpool, this coat is amazing!! It has been minus 20 here and I am not cold at all wherever the coat hits! Best purchase ever!!!

I layer beneath this if it's under 40 degrees and with a large, 36C it gets a little tight. The only downfall to this jacket is the zipper. It's not faulty but if it had beyond a basic zipper with fabric added to it, it would zip easier especially towards the neck line. For sure better than the 2 in 1 version of this jacket because it's unibody. Warm, functional, and cute!

This is a great parka choice for any winter weather condition. It is crafted with top quality and is sure to protect from wind, water and cold. Unfortunately this coat was too tight in the chest area in a size large and too big in a size XL. It broke my heart to return it. I exchanged it for the Arctic parka which I found to be a better fit for my figure. The Arctic parka is a bit lighter in weight but gives good protection for upstate winter weather conditions as well!

It was more coat than I was looking for...But if I lived in a colder climate I would definitely recommend

I bought this parka to replace my high school north face jacket. I had my previous jacket for over 10 years and after realizing I've grown up and it fit a bit snug, i decided to part with it and buy another one because I love the brand. Before purchasing I read many reviews and took into consideration the comments. My advice: Try the size calculator and if you want to be able to wear a sweater under it, go a size up. I purchased an XL and I'm so happy i did. It's comfy a bit heavy but that's expected since it does a great job at keeping me warm.

I ordered this parka in a small and medium. The medium was a little big for me. I am 5'5 and 130 lbs. The length on the medium was too long and the torso part of the coat was too bulky (for my liking). I don't like to wear heavy tops underneath a super warm coat because It causes me to sweat when I'm indoors walking around doing errands. So I ordered the small to compare them both. With a long sleeve jersey underneath it fits perfect. It would definitely be too tight if I were to put a sweatshirt underneath but as I mentioned I don't. So for reference I went with the small. The length was slightly higher but still covers my legs as a parka should and the sleeves were perfect, the medium they were too long. I get more shape in the small then I did with the medium it just looked much too big on me.

Very warm and comfortable! I love all the big pockets, and this is the first winter coat with a hood that isn't constantly slipping off.

Bought early in fall due to Farmer's Almanac and am so grateful I did. Warm, cute and really well made. A joy! You totally get what you pay for in this perfect parka. It makes me happy just wearing it. The longer sleeves do come in handy for extra hand warmth. I love this item!

I deal with Scandinavian Winters, so I have been looking for a very warm midpriced parka for some time, and I am extremely happy with my purchase of this Boroughs Parka as it meets all of my needs perfectly. It is very warm (I only use it on days that are below freezing) and the perfect thickness for protection from the cold but not too bulky that you feel like a snow man walking around. The length is perfect on me as it reaches a bit above the knee. The best part about the coat is that is has a quite elegant look so although it is an effective parka it is also nice to wear around the city and for going to and from any events or work without looking as if I am about to go on a big treck (although it is good for that as well). I am 5'8" and have a full chest so I decided to go with an XL. It fits just tight enough to not let any air in but still leaves room to layer without feeling too tight to move. I am super happy with my this coat!

I have been wearing this Parka everyday as it has been very cold this winter. I was tired of being cold when I went shopping, or going to my kids games-from the car to the gym, and scraping the windshield. Problem solved-super warm and comfy!

Perfect coat for walking with the dogs, a night out or sideline wear. Last North Face coat lasted over 15 years and the construction on this one is great too! Looking forward to many years of warmth!
