The North Face Denali Fleece Jacket - Men's

I think the Danali is ideal for the Upper Pennisula of Michigan Climate. It has the versatility needed for the changing weather conditions we experince. It has a confort range between 30 and 60 degrees. But it not ideal for cool, windy conditions. I've lost two and keep replacing.

I haven't had much time yet to really test my Denali in difficult conditions. as for fit, i'm 5'11 175 athletic build and the medium fits me very well, as for wind protection, it has none, but then again it is not designed or marketed for wind protection. i bought it as a midlayer for backcounty hiking/skiing, as well as, daily use. overall, great jacket, would recommend for "daily" wear alone, but definitely want a shell over it if you might run into some wind or precip. if your going to use the fleece more for extreme backcounty than daily use, i would recommend something a bit more technical.

Good everyday jacket either by itself of zipped into a shell.

Don't get me wrong this is a nice fleece and it's very warm and very durable but it's bulky and not wind resistant at all. As soon as there is a little gust of wind you might as well not be wearing a coat at all. This coat has no practical uses outside of casual wearing. For the money buy something that is wind repellent, less bulky, and maybe even water resistant. You will be much happier with a coat like that.

It's the original. Even the military uses a fleece jacket based upon this design. The fit unlike many outdoor jackets from the major suppliers is realistic. Made to perform in the backcountry, with layering, etc.. Not just made to look good in the store or for your friends on your college campus. Take my advice. Don't waste your money learning the hard way, get the original. TNF Denali jacket. It might just outlive you.

I want to say that I have had many fleece jackets and none have kept me more warm than this one. I love the color and I was loving the great deal I got from this site. Thanks

Sweet Jacket. Great for powder skiing.

VERY WARM JACKET!!! MAKES YOU WANNA TAKE YOUR CLOTHES OF AS SOON AS YOU WALK INTO A ROOM. GREAT FOR OUTDOORS AS IT BLOCKS OUT WIND AND THE COLD. GET THIS JACKET YOU WILL LOVE IT!!!!! BEST FLEECE EVER!!!!!!!

couldn't ask for a better jacket!

Well made jacket, But it is bulky /very hard to layer under a shell ( unless it is a huge shell)Zippers are well placed / fit is good / Overall a very nice jacket. I will get a another jacket for layering, Something with wind block.

This jacket is great, very warm. I love every item made by North Face from the backpacks to the shoes and outerwear. Note to buyers: this jacket runs large.

Had my Denali Fleece for less than one year - but approaching a year and the front zipper went bad. Contacted this site and they replaced the item with same. The product/jacket is very good. Great jacket and this site's service backed-it up. Thanks, again. Will buy from again.

I own several nice TNF jackets ranging from a thin pullover to the warmest summit jacket. I have recently purchased the Denali because I was curious if it actually was the hotness so many claim it is…The TNF description says that Denali is a 3 season jacket, 2 if you’re in the north. I bought it and wore it for about 1.5 weeks. I end up giving it away to my cousin. Throughout the time I purposely hang out in the restaurant fridge at 24F, went on a scooter ride at 35F and sat in my room at 72F. Denali is NOT windproof, NOT waterproof, kind of breathable and most definitely NOT stylish. It is very bulky, the heavy fleece does not adhere to any share other than a square that it is, and the jacket is very uncomfortable as an under layer. I would say that Denali is so popular because it’s the CHEAPES TNF made for wide range of climates. To most people $160 for basically a fleece jacket is top of the line except they forget they’re buying name brand. You will have to spend at least $200 if you want a good windproof/waterproof/slylish/breathable jacket to wear between 20F – 50F. I would recommend you spend enough for at least Sentinel/WindWall Thermal/ STH. I intern for an advertising agent with TNF so I get to wear all of these entry level jackets. I am telling you that these are the least you should be looking for if you’re looking for an all-weather jacket. Besides, do you really want to give people the impression that you’re unable to stand up to the fraternity group mentality…? TNF has at least 15 different options for you, plus the color. My advice is to choose something unique and get away from the simple black color. Take it or leave it. I am just an intern after all. PS If you think you’re a real bad*** then check out the Arc’teryx collections. Arc’teryx is not as numerous but better than TNF and much more stylish!

Colors can appear very different on your computer monitor. That is one disadvantage to ordering online. However, the return was processed very quickly.

The more reviews I read the more I couldn't resist sharing my great fortune. Just got back from a local sporting goods store who always seems to mess the price reductions up on winter clothing this time of year.....anyway, I just purchased this jacket new, from the store for $34.95....No I did not forget to the 1 in front of the 3. The clearance rack the jacket was on sat no more than 10 feet from the rack of North Face Denali's topped with the $165.00 placard! To make it even sweeter the Denali will zip into the standard Columbia Shell, which is why I was looking to begin with. So anyway, if anyone on here is near the Virginia Beach area, there's one more Medium sized Bright Cobalt Blue and dark grey Men's Denali for a price nobody could ever match at the Lynnhaven Sport's Authority. An apology to the site, but there's only one left there at that price so it won't hurt you too badly, besides, haven't read one negative comment about you.

Love the jacket, but the the 2xl runs large. Stick with the xl.

Bought this one in empire blue for my son and he seems to be living in it! He particularly likes the vents as he has worn it working outdoors. He was reluctant to wear it at first because I think he felt that everyone around him wears the black one like a uniform, but one wearing and he was hooked!

I don't write reviews. This will be my first! This jacket is squared away. If you are in the market for a fleece jacket, this should be on your short list of jackets to consider. Functional, looks great and has all the features you could ask for. If you carry concealed, you might consider removing the elastic cord at the bottom, so it won't hang you up at a really bad time. In the words of Clint Smith; "One is none, two is one!". Don't buy just one, buy two; in different colors! And buy both of them from this site because their service and prices rock!

This is the 3rd men's black Denali jacket I have purchased. My son's jacket, which is 3 years old, still looks as good as the one I just bought this Christmas for my daughter's boyfriend.

I bought this yo , this shit is crazy warm from the second that i got it in the mail , came all official and shit its maddd goood , son go out and buy 1.

north face sucks!

I bought this fleece a couple of years ago, and it's still going strong. I love the pockets on the chest, namely the vertical pocket, which is perfect for storing my phone, while the other holds my keys. Like most North Face, you don't need to worry about the fleece "pilling" when you put it in the wash. The drawstrings at the bottom are a convenient feature on those days when you're romping through the snow. It has kept me warm on its own throughout the Ohio winters, with (at most) a hoodie underneath if it gets that cold. Complaints about this jacket? There really aren't all that many. The only complaint I could think of is that almost everyone has the exact same one.

The North Face Denali rocks!! I originally wanted one and bought the Columbia Ballistic Sweater thinking it would be a cheaper substitution. After one week I returned the Columbia and bought the Denali, and couldn't be happier! It is MUCH warmer, sheds water, and is an overall great fit. Yes it is a lot to pay for a fleece jacket, but it is definitely worth every penny. It is now almost mid-December and we've had 2 New Hampshire snows already, and TNF Denali has kept me incredibly warm through both. I plan on wearing my Denali for years to come. Overall, an awesome jacket!!

I didn't realize a fleece could be this warm! My wife loves it so much that I need to buy her one so she quits stealing mine.

We continue to purchase these jackets as our team standard. Great customer service by Derek.

The jacket is extremely warm if there is no wind. But a simple shell fixes this.

I really wanted a North Face Denali Jacket. But I really did not want to pay the full $170 dollars or so it was going to cost. And they NEVER go on sale. So it was a great surprise to find discontinued colors. I am never up to date with clothing style anyway, so I did not care that it was discontinued. The jacket is warm, and fits perfectly. Thanks!

Very nice jacket for those cold fall days. They build these jackets well and I plan on hanging on to mine for quite a while!

Pretty cool jacket. Nice and warm. A great piece to wear as an insulative layer or around town.

Denali is my first jacket of North Face and is spectacular in all senses. Climbing the mountains of Mexico or walking through its cities and towns behaves very well. Stops the wind and guard the heat without suffocating you in any moment. I recommend it..

I love my Denali and though I wore it for many years my son has taken it off to college. He had alot of choices but that was the jacket he took. It's very warm but not windproof, has great zippers and pit zips. Best of all it is not a "trim fit" garment like many others and allows us older and slightly rounder folks to still fit into a performance jacket. Lots of great pockets and the exterior nylon brush guards do a good job of preventing wear at the elbows and shoulders. Now if only it were windproof.

I have had a Denali for quite sometime, and I tell you, this is the fleece. If you get caught in a small drizzle no worries, nylon reinforced shoulders will keep you dry until you can get your rain jacket on. It has been used in all conditions, backpacking, camping, day hiking, and as a layer backcountry snowboarding! Can't replace a classic!

I've had this jacket for two years now and it has been everywhere from downtown coffee shops to the tops of peaks in Alaska, Uzbekistan, and New Zealand. With the windstopper it's warmer than the inside of a cow so the only reason why I ever even wear a shell over it is if there's precip or if it's wicked cold. It's awesome for those really cold days but it might be a little overkill if you're just looking for a windbreaking layer.
