I bought this coat for an expedition off the east coast of Greenland and I wasn't disappointed. It kept me warm and dry, and performed exactly as you would want a coat of this cost to perform.It also compresses very well so that it can be stored in a dry bag for when space is at a premium.I can't recommend this coat highly enough.

Great jacket for cold weather. Armed robberies of Canadian Geese jackets have become common in my city so I needed a replacement. This jacket is warm and classy but probably won't be stolen at gun point- huge bonus. And double bonus- a snub nose .38 revolver or micro compact 9mm pistol in a pocket holster fits perfectly in either front pocket- so if I do get mugged I can blast my way home. Sweet!

I absolutely see and feel the high quality of this parka. It is so light and roomy, without compromising warmth and functionality. The only thing I am disappointed in, happens to be the lack of more pockets. When I say I'm disappointed, it because I didn't specifically pay attention to know this before my purchase. If I had known, I would have chosen a different style coat.

Love the color palettes on this parka jacket. It's warm, comfortable and it looks overall great. Get many compliments from people and asked which model this is. I would recommend it BUT keep some things in mind. Who ever designed this jacket didn't pays enough attention on how to keep your hands comfortable warm in these pockets. The pockets are horizontal and not vertical. So It's very awkward to put your hands in these pockets. Big flaw imo.. And i notice when your jacket get wet, it will leave a VERY bad smell on it. It's smells like algae or a pond. So don't wear it when its (slightly) raining or snowing.
I wore this coat for the first time today in 38 degree weather. It’s a surprisingly nice coat with a nice comfy hood, great styling, a puffy look, snug fitting cuffs, and decent warmth. A major drawback are the tiny side pockets, the only external pockets, and the single small internal zipped pocket. The 550 fill power down I would consider another drawback to the coat. But it’s warm enough for a hip length coat. And the color scheme and styling are very nice. As with all North Face coats, I had to downsize. I bought a Medium although I normally wear a Large, and the Medium fit is good, even the sleeves.
A few thing to consider before buying this $500 jacket.1. The sizing is way off, I take a large in everything, I'm 6' and +/-175 lbs, I was swimming in this jacket2. The pockets are in the front of the coat in an unnatural position for anyone unless you have exceptionally short arms3. There is a Velcro flap that covers the zipper, which doesn't make much sense as how much cold air would get past a zipped up coat.4. This jacket is way overpriced for the valueOverall I'm really disappoint with North Face and will be looking for a different brand
This is a wonderful jacket. It's perfect for the Minnesota cold and I'm confident it can keep me warm at negative degree weather. The hood is perfect and thick enough and high enough to keep me protected in cold winds too. This jacket is also very light for how warm and thick it is. For how thick it is, it doesn't restrict movement for me.
Love this jacket! It’s become my go-to because of its pure simplicity and function. Better to me than the Nuptse, simply because it covers more of your body with its down-fill hood that can zip right up to your face, and oversized fit which can still be cropped by cinching the waist to your preference. Not to mention, you standout from the crowd of Nuptses and still carry that TNF clout loud and proud. You can dress this jacket up and down—essentially, you can wear it with anything, and you’ll be the flyest, warmest and puffiest person anywhere you go. 100% recommend, especially for the Boxing Day sale price. Forget the hype, go with a true and real classic, and go a size down if you want a skinny fit.
The best heavy duty parka ever created. This is the ultimate heavy duty parka for the coldest winter. Whether you live in a region that is wet, windy, blistering cold or all of the above, this is the perfect parka for all. A heavy down parka but I don't the heaviness because once I put this parka on, I feel absolutely nothing from the outside environment. This parka is very very warm and helps retain body heat very well. The sleeves are the perfect length and the zippers are heavy duty. The Black on Black is my favorite duty to it's easy to pair with a outfit. Be very careful layering with this parka or else you'll easily over heat.
I was skeptical on whether this product would actually be warm for Scotland / UK weather, but after buying it and wearing it a couple times, I actually love it. It keeps me very warm and I don't feel any part of my body where the jacket is covering to be cold. The pockets could be improved, instead of it being horizontal, it could be vertical like my 2 in 1 north face waterproof jacket. And another pocket could be added instead of having one on the inside. This jacket is to be used in dry, windy, light rain conditons. This jacket is not to be used in heavy rain!! Other than that, I'd give it an 8.5/10
