I bought this for my boyfriend and he absolutely loves it. You basically get three jackets in one, allowing you the ability to use the inner lining, the outer coat or put them both together to create one extremely thick and weather proof coat. It also doesn't look to bulky. Great buy for the cost!

OK, I had my doubts about this jacket...I had one just like it except an older version...TNF has changed the zip out liner and it is no longer fleece...I thought that would cause the jacket to be colder...I was just outside for over an hour in below 30 degree cold with a decent wind....it kept the cold out. I am happy with it...plus I got it for $159.00 on BACKCOUNTRY.COM I left off one star due to it no longer having the "Napolean" pocket....or inside pockets...

I bought this jacket for my 5'11'' tall, 210lb husband. The jacket is very light yet warm and the lining makes a pretty good jacket itself. The only problem I had was the size, and this had been an issue with almost everything by North Face that I had purchased in the past. Size XL was too roomy and overall big and size L seems a bit too tight, especially the sleeves. My husband decided to keep the large one, although he will not be able to wear a sweater underneath. Overall I would recommend it, but perhaps try it on first if you see one at your local North Face store.

I have recently purchased this jacket and since it has come in I have been awaiting the time to wear it. I love it, even though I havent actually put it to use. Its not heavy and is very comfortable. I got an XL and its slightly big but the sleeves fit me great (the L was just a little short in the sleeves). Thier is a stripe down the sides that cannot be seen in the picture, I thought it was all a solid color which is partly why I picked this particular jacket. Its my first triclimate jacket but already I feel like its going to be my favorite by far. I would recomend it to anyone. Also before I bought the jacket I tried on a similar (North Face) jacket at a local store to "size up the fit" so I wouldnt have to chance a possible return.

I bought a size small and it fits me perfectly. I'm not a really big guy - 5'8" with a relatively slim waist, size 30, and the jacket looks great on me. I tried on a size medium at a local sporting goods store, which had a little more room with the inside jacket but when I removed the inside jacket, the fit was a little big on me. So the size small couldn't have worked out better. I highly recommend this jacket. It does an excellent job at blocking out the wind and keeping you feeling warm during cold weather conditions.

The recommended uses for this jacket are "skiing, cold weather, street." I think this under sells the jacket. I have been using it for near freezing hiking and backpacking and it keeps more than warm. I would have no problem using this in a layering during sub freezing backpacking trips. Add backpacking to the list of uses, this coat has potential.

Today is a first day that my son is wearing this jacket. I like this one because it has two long sleeve shells. It is important to have several layers in cold weather. I think it is perfect on windy days but not sure about freeze days because it's thin and light. We'll see if there would be any complains... :)

Great jacket! Very comfortable and warm. I struggled a little with the sizing, primarily because I'm somewhere between an L and an XL. I went with the L, and I can still wear a sweater underneath it. It does get a little snug when I try to sit down with a sweater underneath and zipped up. Overall, quite happy with the product. And...back country is the shizznit!

I have been wearing this jacket through a cold winter now and it is very warm. It keeps the wind out and keeps you warm. It is very comfortable and fits me just right. Good quality on the construction, and so far it has been waterproof. The inner liner jacket is a little thinner than I thought it would be, but it still is warm when used with the entire jacket. I love it and it was just what I was looking for. Nice and light, too, for how much warmth it gives.

You can take this two in one jacket anywhere
I had this on and got caught in a freezing rain storm,
and it held good thing at the time I was lost!!!

My husband loves this jacket. We were out yesterday in the low 30's and it was very windy. He only wore a t-shirt under it and was comfortable. It looks great, too!

North Face sizing is a little off.. i'm 5'8" but stocky (170lbs of skin/bones and some muscle) the chest is a little tight but the arm length is perfect... the large fits better on the torso but my arms are swimming... i went with the medium.

The jacket quality is bar none... absolutely great. I went up to Killington VT where the weather was 35F and was never cold... or wet. I believe its the best money you can spent for a economical jacket... (you can always buy a North Face Goretex for $$$ but unless you are going up to Canada.. i don't see the point).

Like everyone says... try it on in the store (if possible) then order online... my pants are North Face... but suprisingly were cheaper at the brick and mortor store.

Do yourself a favor and get this great intermediate jacket. Oh and customer service is amazing. They will bend over backwards to make sure you are happy. A rarity these days.

Bought it for my 15yr. old son. He wears it all the time. It looks great and Backcountry had the best price on it.

This jacket keeps you warm and dry and does well in strong winds and sleet storms. The removable liner is handy if the temperature climbs a little and it is very easy to take in and out. Works well for downhill skiing but some wind did come thru the zipper but it kept me warm on the lifts. You might want to order an XL if you normally wear a L, the sizes seem to run a little small. There are also some goofy white stripes down the sides that you can't see in this picture but if your more concerned with comfort and warmth than I wouldn't worry about those.

Over the last little bit their has been some serious storms here in salt lake and this jacket has absolutely been amazing in weather keeping me warm and dry.

warm, versatile.Best jacket ive ever owned. I recommend trying it on somewhere before you purchase though. I tried it on at Bloomingdales where it was 350... (lol.. suckas!!!)

nice coat. hopefully my kid will wear it

This is the best jacket that I have ever owned. It's lightweight, wind resistant, and warm. I recommend it to all!

Cette veste est le meilleur que j'ai jamais possédé. C'est léger, résistant au vent, et chaud. Je le recommande à tous!

Amazing jacket! I've used it in 10-15 degree weather so far and it was very warm. Of course I had a few layers on underneath. The waterproof part is great, works very well. I've actually worn just the liner itself for the most part just because it hasn't been cold enough. I love it!

This jacket was purchased mainly because the price was in my range. I've had it for a month now, and I love it. It did seem lightweight and I wasn't sure if it would keep me warm below 32 degrees, but it does very well. I usually only wear a hooded sweatshirt underneath, and I've been in weather as low as 15 to 20 degrees so far without getting cold. The drawstrings at the waist line help alot when pulled tight, so no air can get in. I also took snowboarding which worked great because it's not a bulky jacket. My only regret is I didn't buy this jacket years ago. The pockets seem fine to me and the white stripe on the sides look good as well. I'm 5'7, weigh 160, and the medium fits me perfect. Great mid-priced jacet!

This jacket seems awesome. I just got it today, (I ordered it at 10:30 last night, awesome free shipping backcountry.com, thanks). It looks like it will be great come winter though. This is an amazing jacket for the price. The medium fits great. It looks to be very water-proof and warm. I would highly recommend it.

Love the jacket, but had to return for a bigger size. I typically wear XL in EVERYTHING but the inner layer jacket was just too snug for comfort. The XXL fit perfect, and i am 6ft tall 236lb. I think TNF makes the best stuff and this jacket doesnt fail. Very warm, and the chute green color is SWEET. Would recommend, but sizing is difficult if you are "in-between" sizes

Typically I like to shop locally when it comes to Christmas gifts, but your website's competitive pricing won me over. I was able to afford a higher end North Face at a lower price than my local store could offer for a lower model. Prompt delivery even with the holiday rush. Thanks
