Great jacket

Perfect

It's very soft and warm.

Very cozy and warm without the extra bulk on a warm fall day.

Fits and looks amazing! Just the style of coat that I was looking for. Not too bulky, but keeps me warm and dry enough in this chilly Fall Season. I love it! And I get many compliments on it, too.

I love it

Just what I wanted - it's not bulky or heavy but warm - fits is good and made well

I love this coat, but had to replace my first one because the liner bunched up and back. The new one isn't doing that yet, but I haven't had to wash it either. It feels like the inside liner isn't quite as heavy as the one from a couple of years ago and my arms get. Caught in sleeves because it doesn't feel as smooth.

Poor quality.

It is warm. The lining is a mess! It hikes up the coat which makes it look awful. Definitely do not buy this!!!!

This jacket is beautiful on and I use it for work. Wish it was warmer, but it will be great in the spring.

Love the lighter weight but there was a big difference in the small to medium. The medium was far too big and the small could be a tad bigger

I wore it in light snow and it absorbed every flake and I hung it up to dry but now it smells like mildew. Put it threw the washer/dryer following instructions but the smell lingers. Now today on a rainy day it's completely soaked

This is exactly the mid-weight coat I was looking for to wear in the fall and late winter/early spring. The longer length, hood, and wind resistance are great for keeping warm, and the light, soft lining also provides the perfect amount of warmth for temps in the 30s and 40s without overheating like down insulation would at those temps. I wear this coat walking to and from a bus stop six blocks away for my commute to and from work. It looks fine with my dressy work clothes while still functioning very practically. I don't particularly care for or need the belt/sash in the back, and the bulkiness of it actually hurts my back when sitting against it while driving, so I have to unbutton it and let it hang on the sides. I also don't love the Velcro on the entire length of the front flap covering the zipper, but I realize it's necessary for wind and water resistance. Other than those two minor issues, I love this coat, including the grey color which goes with everything. I already have enough black coats, so the color options for this coat are great.

The only things I don't like about this coat are the Velcro on the front (previous coat had snaps) and the pocket zippers kept breaking off. Very warm though for a longer rain type coat.

I like this Jacket. I bought one for myself and one for my sister. It is warm nice and cozy but the zipper is low quality. Inside of the jacket is good quality , outside of it looks faded black color that makes it less attractive. I wish north face make the same jacket with a nicer zipper , without Velcro and with a darker color nice fabric for the outside of this jacket.

Fits great. I'm 5'3" and the sleeves are a tad long. It's warm enough to wear on pretty cold days. It's my in between jacket. Not full down and not lightweight either.

I bought this coat for my daughter and she loves it. The look and comfort of it. Fits her perfect and looks great.

Nice warm jacket. Velcro caught my work ID lanyard a few times.

Great fit, love the belt back, but all the style is in the back. Blah when zipped. Velcro is a huge NO-NO!! Bad idea TNF! How about some inside pockets for busy multi-tasking women? Overall, I like this jacket over the collared shorter shelbe rochella ... terrible cut on that one. I got a great deal and will keep it but please think about the customer when making these jackets! We wear many hats. Thanks!

I purchased this jacket for days that are very cold and windy. It is a heavy jacket that keeps the wind off of me. Super happy with the quality of this jacket. The pockets are generous size, the snap adjustment on the back of the jacket is helpful to snug the jacket up. The zipper at both ends is a must, so helpful when driving. Love, love, love this jacket!

Nice looking and stylish but major design flaw due to Velcro Fasteners Catching on Everything when coat is open!!! Who thought of this at North Face. Pieces of threads are now lodged in each of the velcro pieces, and, aside being hard to remove, they have also damaged my scarves and sweaters.

Its a little thin but a nice looking jacket!
