The North Face Osito Fleece Jacket - Women's
Sometimes a fleece jacket feels like a thin beach towel. Disappointing. The North Face Women’s Osito Fleece Jacket, however, feels like a high-loft, plush, fuzzy fleece blanket. A standard fit means the Osito slides easily over a tee or long-sleeve thermal top, and the cuff-snaps attach to The North Face Triclimate shells for a day on the slopes.
Bottom Line: Doesn’t disappoint.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.
Are these as warm as the Dinali style

Hi Robin - not quite as warm as the Denali. The Osito is about a 200 weight fleece, where the Denali is a 300 weight - so the Denali is going to be quite a bit warmer.

The jacket is incredibly soft but a little too narrow in the sleeves and chest which makes it hard to wear the jacket zippered up or with anything but a thin shirt.

I am wondering what the lowest temperature this jacket can handle...and how about tolerating wind?
By: BOBBIE
October 22, 2009
Hi Bobbie- comfort ranges vary pretty drastically from person to person, but in general I would probably call this jacket comfortable down to the mid 40 degree range. With regards to wind resistance, that won't be one of the strong points for this jacket as it is high loft fleece without any type of wind barrier. If you are looking for fleece with some type of wind blocking barrier, here are a couple of suggestions:
-The North Face Windwall 2 jacket
-The North Face Reversible Chameleon Jacket
Hope this helps

Too Big
By: Alexandria Acadia
October 29, 2009
I recently got the Pink Ribbon (for Breast Cancer Awareness Month) Osito Jacket in white from a diff website. It was my first NF jacket, and I really wanted the pink ribbon edition. I thought by jacket, it would be something I could wear on cold fall days, so I orded a large. I'm 5'8 and 160 pounds.It's a beautiful, but it's just way too big for me. And it also fits like sweatshirt, not a jacket. It truIy is soft, and by layering with it, it would be a great winter coat. still have the tags on it if anybody is interested.......

I have had this jacket for three weeks, and it has been great so far. It is surprisingly warm, and although it isn't windproof, I have been surprised by its wind resistance. It was snowing lightly the other day and I wasn't cold. It is also nice indoors; I can wear it in my drafty office, and it isn't too warm.

Very disappointing...
By: Jill
April 8, 2009
I got this jacket about 2 months ago with some Christmas money I had received. At first, I loved it. Very warm and soft. Now that I have had it for 2 months, the silken fleece is matting up on the front and bottom of the jacket. It went from being a pretty jacket to a tacky looking jacket in no time! I had my doubts about how this would hold up when I bought it. TNF customer service has been miserable to deal with. They want ME to be responsible for costs of repair/replacement!!! I will think twice about purchasing from TNF again, and will NOT get this jacket again, ever! Should have went with the Khumbu. It is a little cheaper and looked to have sturdier workmanship.

Can I machine wash and tumble dry this?
And since some says that it sheds a lot, will it get lint on other clothes when dried together?
Thanks.
By: cj
August 2, 2009
I wouldn't recommend tumble drying anything synthetic whether it sheds or not (I believe this issue has been addressed on the Osito). Synthetic fabircs all dry pretty quickly without tumble drying, and I think it really extends the life of any synthetic. Nice to save a little energy too.

great jacket. love the fuzziness and the color I get tons of compliments and it is very warm - perfect for my climate in the South. it does run a little small. I normally wear XS but got S thank goodness. It doesn't fit comfortably over my thicker sweaters, but... you should definitely get this jacket! It is great!

Cozy!
By: harmonypt1971760
December 15, 2008
This jacket is super cozy. It is more form fitting than my other fleece jackets so I wouldn't wear it over a bulky sweater. But it also seems to stretch along with my movement so it doesn't feel tight. I am usually in between a small and medium and the small works well over a single layer underneath. It's so cozy I often leave it on when I come back indoors because I hate to take it off!

This is a great jacket but beware of it being a tad smaller in the chest. Not roomy like the Denali's. My daughter loves it but unlike the Denali jackets, we have been getting 2+ years out of wear, this one will need replacing next year because the sizing runs smaller. But this is a great jacket!

By: Misty

The big difference between the two jackets is the Polartec® Thermal Pro fabric, which gives the jacket 4 times the wind resistance. It is worth paying for for wind resistance! If you are looking for a fleece that works well alone and as a layer I would get the Denali Thermal, or one of the Gore windstopper fleeces.

September 29, 2008
Considering Greenville barely gets below freezing at night in the middle of winter, you should be fine with just this. In fact, it'd be a pretty good hiking jacket as well, but it's not water- or windproof, so you might want to get a shell or some kind of Windstopper, depending on what kind of conditions you'll be hiking in

My daughter had a regular fleece North Face Jacket that she loved! She is hot natured and it was just enough to keep her warm in the winter. It is now part of a crime scene investigation and has been confiscated by the local Sheriff's Dept. (through no fault of hers) I want ot surprise her with another one but she has been asking for a "fuzzy" north face. I don't want to pay the high price for a Denali, will this one work pretty well? We live in MS so it's only int eh 30's in the winter time. She's not outside that much and has a heavy coat for that. What do you think?
