Customer Reviews The North Face Alta Vista Jacket

Love everything about this jacket. Light weight and breathable and the color is nice too!

Great jacket. Tried a couple of times in the rain and not a single drop of water made it inside. The color is exactly same as shown on the website. The jacket repels water excellently and after coming home it got dry pretty quick. Liked it and keeping it. I am going to recommend it to my family and friends for sure.

Awesome

Very good looking rain jacket. Feels light weight and it is extremely resistant to water. However it can get hot easily in warmer climates I guess that's what the armpit zippers are for

Great rain jacket. I needed a packable rain jacket for a Europe trip, and this one fits the bill. So far it sheds water great. Has two interior "stuff" pockets, and can be packed into either one for a small, compact, packable pouch. Description on the website is incorrect on sizing-this jacket is a standard fit, not slim fit. There's a tag that says "Standard Fit" on the zipper. I got a size medium, and I'm 5'9", 165 pounds, 42" chest. Room for layers underneath.

Great jacket! Lightweight and perfect as a windbreaker / light rain jacket for backpacking and everyday use. Easy to pack and looks great. Size accurate.

Excellent Jacket i would buy it again

Great jacket so far!

I love the color, and may even be better made than the beloved old one, which it replaced.

Gave this as a graduation gift to my son who is headed to college this fall. Turns out it was just in time as it rained that night and he got to use it as he attended several graduation parties. The jacket did its job because he didn't look a wet rat when he got home and wasn't soaked through.

Bought a size S to out over my size S ecoball puff and firts perfect! 5'8 150

Super light weight easy to pack, plus it's super good looking! I get a lot of compliments on it. Love this thing

It's light sleeves are perfect. Highly recommend!

Light weight and high quality material. Vents are awesome for keeping cool in humidity.

I use this jacket mostly for dodging rain drops in the city. I plan on taking it hiking very soon. I chose this model over the more basic model because of the additional pockets and the sealed zippers. The pit vents will also allow me to wear this year-round when it rains. I would have preferred a different shade of yellow (brighter) but this color is growing on me.

I love that this jacket is lightweight and sleek. I am hoping the inside won't flake off on my neck like my other rain jacket (not north face) over time. I like the arm vent feature and that when I travel with it, it fits inside itself.

Fits a little smaller if you get your normal size, and bigger if you opt a size up. I went a size up in order to allow for layering, however it's still larger than preferred.

Great looking jacket! Well made. Great for Florida raining season.

Great jacket, very lightweight and stylish.

Lightweight. Stylish. I like the small size. I'm a very thin and medium-height man. I wish it were easier to pack it in a zipper.

I like how light and compact it is. The material feels good to the touch, and the size was just right for me. (Small- 5'10 159 lbs.) I got the yellow, which is real pleasing to the eyes. I have gotten a few compliments on it already.

This was a replacement for an older North Face jacket that was very similar. Unfortunately even though this jacket was the same size (medium), this medium was too tight preventing any layering. Also the zipper felt much cheaper than my older North Face jacket. I am 5'7" 142 lbs

Day to day wear

Very disappointed in cheap feeling of the zipper, and sizing compared to my last similar North Face jacket. My last North Face jacket was a medium, and fit very well. Unfortunately the first jacket I ordered was a medium, and was so tight, layering as I did with my last jacket is not possible. This jacket, large size, is a little too big in length, and sleeves. Unfortunately in the North Face line there are no alternatives. So I just live with it, and roll up the sleeves. I am 5'7" 142 lbs

The quality of the product is amazing but north face mediums are usually a little larger.
