Customer Reviews The North Face Hydrenalite™ Down Parka

this is my first puffer jacket and i love how cozy and warm it is. its like youre walking around with a nice blanket. i live in chicago and it sure does keep me warm

The jacket is warm. I've worn it once since purchasing, on a short walk with high wind and ~38F with just a tshirt underneath. In terms of appearance, the material is shiny and lightweight and the jacket flares out near the bottom, which makes the comments about wind chill getting into the jacket make sense. I'm usually a medium but got a large so that I could layer. It's pretty oversized. I wish it gave more room in the chest area and less of a flare towards the bottom (just a bit though, it does helps with sitting in the jacket), but overall I like it.

I bought this after owning a similar parka for almost 20 years. Love the deep pockets and full zip to the chin. Coat is about 5" longer than the old one.

My wife wears a small in winter coats, so I got her a small in this. Way too small, with the sleeves being ridiculously short. Went up to a medium. Same thing, and again the sleeves were short.

The sizing was off and it didn't feel as warm. Had to return.

Quality poor compared to the same coat I bought 20 years ago for half the price.

If you're trying to stay warm and dry don't buy this.

This down jacket fits perfectly for me and It's comfortable, warm.

I wore this coat for the first time in Lake Placid NY where the temperatures were below zero and it kept me very warm. I highly recommend.

Jacket is light weight, but still very warm!

Satisfied with the jacket, very comfortable and light

Love this jacket! Fits great and doesn't feel bulky even with a sweatshirt or heavier top on. Length is wonderful and bottom zipper comes in handy.

Super comfortable, warm, and stylist jacket!!

Super cute but don't recommend wearing in below zero temps. Kind of longer than I wanted but not too bad

This is the coat to get. Much lighter than comparable others.

I love the Women's Hydrenalite Down Parka but had to return it because it was too big. Very disappointed that it was sold out in the size I needed. Hopefully, in the near future it will be available in a medium size.

This is honestly the best you'll find. Great for short people like me 5.3 "

This the most perfect lite weight coat, Weather blocking and easy to move about in.

Love the product

With narrow shoulders and loose fit otherwise, this is a rare and fantastic coat for apple-shaped women. Please offer more items with the same fit!

Fantastic down parka. It served me well and kept me comfortable in below freezing weather while visiting Omaha NE.

Love the coat fits good

I ordered this coat and received it within three days. I couldn't be happier with the white dune color, warmth, and length! I'm 5'5" and weigh 160 pounds. A medium fit nicely and allowed for a T-shirt and sweatshirt layer underneath without feeling tight. The length falls just below my knees and the coat kept me warm during 18 mornings walking the dog. I've washed it once and dried it in the dryer with wool dryer balls and it came out looking brand new. This coat is very lightweight in feel, yet very warm and insulating. The hood is warm and comfortable with room for a beanie underneath.

Wore this for Boston in late February. Very comfortable and warm but not too heavy. I am 5'9, 158 lbs, and got a medium. It fit perfectly. I would probably purchase the heavier parka if I come back to Boston any earlier in the year. However, I am from south Florida, so I'd imagine most people use to seasons would do great with this parka year-round. Front and back pictured below

Love it fits perfect
