Customer Reviews The North Face Metropolis Parka

Warm but a little too puffy

This is the third iteration of this coat I've purchased over the last 10 years. The hood is more spacious than before although it's kind of pointy. I wish this had snaps in addition to the zipper. I liked that option so you could keep the bottom open. This one has stitching across the back waistline that makes it a bit poofier than previous versions. Overall some improvements from previous versions but I miss the snaps.

This is my second North Face parka. I love the first one that is black and that I've had for several years. I really wanted a white one so I ordered this one. I'm 5'3" and weigh about 128 lbs. I usually wear a medium in North Face gear, but I bought a large based on so many previous reviews saying the coat ran small. This one seemed out of proportion in many ways. It fit me around the waist but the upper body was too big, the sleeves were too long, and the coat was too long on me. Sadly, I had to return it.

great coat. warm and comfortable

Needed a warm coat for my NYC commutes and this def did the job! I always feel so warn in this parka. When it rains, the coat's material does not become drenched or soaked. Rain wicks off quickly. Very happy with my purchase and will def be pulling out the parka for winters to come. Took off one star because I feel like the Michelin man in it lol (not the most flattering even with the emphasized waists) but that's so minor! I would realistically give the coat a 4.5.

The cinched waste is great for style and it's super comfy and warm! I bought the same jacket in high school and it's over 15 years old and just started having puff come out of the sleeves but it lasted 15 years in great condition! Bought the same jacket in a new color!

It fits perfect and it was very light and warm. I gave it 4 stars because the hood came off too easily. If you grab it too quickly by the hood it snaps off. Had to return it. That was a deal breaker.

This was a gift for my daughter and she raves about how amazing the coat is for cold winter days. It's her new favorite coat!

I live in Chicago the Windy City so need to be bundled up! So far it's been 30-50 degrees it's perfect for this weather warm and breathable. I Like the hoodie it's detachable and the leagth it's good I like the coats long so it goes up to my shins I am 5'2. My only complaint is the mid part is strangely fitted a little awkward, it doesn't sit natural.

Had to size up to XL as large was too snug at the waist. Hood buttons keep opening with slightest pressure.

Gift for our daughter. She said It's Just What I Wanted. The zipper gave her a little trouble at first but I'm giving 5 stars because of the return policy if we need it.

Warm jacket!!

Jacket is so warm!!! It's very comfortable and keeps me warm on my winter walks!!

I walk 1 mile to work in Windy City. This coat keeps me toasty warm. My sister bought one 12 years ago. Where have I been? Should have purchased this comfy, snuggly, stylish coat years ago!

Great jacket, it's warm, light, and a good fit. I wish the removable hood was attached with a zipper rather than snaps because they come off too easily, but other than that I'm happy with this purchase.

Nice and warm!! Just had issues with sizing and I'm usually an XL and thought an XXL would be good but had to get an XXXL.....sizing is smaller but finally got a size that fit. Quality is good.

Love this Parka! Super warm and light weight!

Runs small

Very good fit

Love that it keeps my neck warm and goes a look at to my knees.
