I absolutely love this jacket, and the new style is slightly more fitted than my two year old Nuptse. I basically live in the jacket because it's the only thing that keeps me warm, and I've worn it while skiing and had NO problems staying too warm if anything. While it does make me resemble the Michelin Man, I could care less-I just want to stay warm!

I purchased my North Face Jacket about 1 1/2 years ago. I live in the mountains of Alaska in Eagle River Valley outside of Anchorage. The jacket isn't warm at all except on days where the temperature is 25 degrees or warmer. The down in the upper arms of the jacket is non-existent. It basically is two layers of nylon. There isn't enough down to keep you warm, thus the lightweight of the jacket. If you purchase this jacket, better plan on wearing a good fleece jacket under this coat or you will freeze on cold those days below 25 degrees. Basically, you are buying a cheap coat with a big name. You get a better buy with LL Bean or Eddie Bauer.

I love, love, love this jacket. Bought it in black and it looks great. Beyond the looks- it fits perfectly, not at all boxy and is SUPER warm. I'm a 6ft tall girl and bought the jacket in a size medium and the sleeves are long enough. I'm super stoked!!

i just got this jacket to replace the Thunder Down i returned. I LOVE IT! it fits perfectly, it looks good and its WARM. the adjustable cuffs and waist band are great, the neck has enough fill to keep your neck warm without feeling strangled. highly recommend whether this is your only jacket or to add to a collection.

My wife needed a new winter coat and she absolutely loves it. We live I Chicago and it has been a cold winter and she has been plenty warm in the coat. My wife thinks anything below 50 is cold, so for her to think the coat is plenty warm says a lot.

Unbelievably warm - also lightweight, well-fitted, and good-looking. Highly recommend it.

This is truly one of the best buys I have ever made in terms of outdoor gear/clothing. I have had this jacket for over 10 years (men's size S because I don't think they made womens 10 years ago) with no problems in workmanship or quality. I take it almost everywhere I go in the CO backcountry in all seasons as I get cold easily and quickly. It doesn't matter how cold you are...you put this on and you are toasty warm in 5 minutes max! In winter conditions, it is warmer than any other layer when you pair it with a shell. I have worn it in this configuration comfortably in both below-zero and cold/wet conditions. I wear it by itself for spring skiing with one thin wool layer under it. In the summer, I wear it in the morning and evenings in camp and use it as my pillow in the tent. I carry it in my pack for long climbs/hikes on the 14ers (it packs down to the size of one of those mini-watermelons). It's only weakness as a stand-alone jacket is wetness - but this goes for any down-filled thing. The "won't this make me look fat" girl instinct in you may be averse to the poofy look of it, but this is for function - it's the poofiness that provides for the lovely pillow of stationary warm air around your body. Finally...DO NOT fall for buying a cheaper jacket with a lower down "fill count"...it WILL be inferior!

Bought this for Christmas for my mom and she loves it. She doesn't take it off when she goes out keeps her really warm.

My husband made me wait through weeks of very cold days/nights before I could have this jacket for Christmas. I returned it for another color but, other than that, I am very happy with it. Very warm and very comfortable. I ended up with an X-large to accomodate bulk underneath which some may or may not need or want. I would recommend this jacket to anyone.

This coat is by far the best coat ever. Completely warm....well worth every penny! Not bulky at all and looks great! I'm getting one in white too!

YOU CAN ALWAYS TRUST BACKCOUNTRY FOR THEIR SPEEDY DELIVERY AND THEIR PRODUCTS. I JUST LOVE THE JACKET AND HAS KEPT ME WARM ON THOSE COLD NORTH EASTERN DAYS AND NIGHTS.
THANK YOU AND KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK.
BACKCOUNTRY IS NUMBER 1 IN MY BOOK

Got one for me & another for my sister ( her christmas gift). Was exactly what I was looking for, very warm, looks great, not bulky. Great for the Northeast region of the US during winter seasons. If you want something for colder climates research the jacket and what cold temperatures it can withstand. The name holds true to the product! What really got me was the lifetime warranty, same as LL Bean. Thanks, BackCountry.

I ordered this jacket a few weeks before Christmas and got in within 2-3 days (Backcountry is awesome). It's warm and has a great fit. I ended up going up a size though to make sure I'd have room for sweaters/sweatshirts.

I bought this jacket Dec. 7th and, thankfully, it arrived the next day. It was 9 degrees and snowing in Denver, CO. I walked to class wearing only a t-shirt under my new North Face jacket. It is so warm and flattering on the body. I'm 5'6 and weigh 140. I ordered a medium, and it fits very well whether I have on a t-shirt or multiple layers of long-sleeve shirts. I'm very pleased with this purchase and the purchasing process.

I love this jacket, it is very warm! I am tall and the length actually works for me. The only thing I would do differently next time is order this jacket with a hood!!

I bought this jacket for my 17 year old daughter. She absolutely loves it! We live in Montana and need a great cold weather jacket.

Jacket fits great but for being slightly too short in the arms and torso for the lankier person. I'm 5'7", 120lbs and have a small. It's warm at -5 celsius and total inactivity but I honestly was expecting more warmth than it offers. I would layer with fleece or wool and, in wind, wear a shell.

One of the most popular down jackets on the market. I bought one of these for my mother as a gift and she gets cold extremely easy here in Utah. It fits a little big, as is stated in the tech specs. It fits similar to the Denali fleece with a loose fit. 700 fill down, with a large amount of it for the price. Very puffy and warm from what she has said. Great style, warmth and quality for a pretty low price comparativley to some other down jackets. Sure you might be paying a little more for "The North Face" logo but the quality is still there.

I'm 5'9" and 145 lbs and got a size large. It fits great even when I have a sweater on. I especially like the longer length for my longer torso. It is nice & warm for our Montana winters!
