The North Face Oso Hooded Full-Zip Jacket - Women's

I'm with the love and hate on this one! I love the touch of the OSO but have to admit that I don't love the fit on it. I had the opposite problem and felt this jacket ran big. The jacket feels amazing but kind of has a glossy look to it which I'm not totally digging.

Not only is this the softest fleece jacket I have ever found, but it is attractive and true to size in my opinion. Each time I wear it someone admires it. I could not give it 5 stars because it does shed a lot, unlike other high quality fleece I own. In particular, my seatbelt grabs fuzz and then later applies it to blouses that I never wore at the same time as the jacket! I like the jacket so much I plan to keep it, not wear it while driving, and HOPE that the shedding stops completely over time. So far a couple of washings has not reduced the shedding problem... I think that a fleece jacket that costs as much as this one should be perfect, though.

This jacket is very soft and flattering. It does run small though, so I would go up 1 size.

This is a great jacket but I agree with the fuzz problem. I wonder if washing it will help take care of that. Any suggestions there? Anyway, besides that, it fits great and is super soft and warm (but not too warm). I was in a restaurant and the waitress touched my jacket to say thanks for something and came back for a second touch cause it was so soft. I get a lot of compliments on the jacket as well. Nice alternative for the Denali. I even bought my mom one for Mother's day!

This jacket ruined a couple of my shirts from shedding, so I exchanged it for another thinking maybe mine was defective, but I had the same problem. Even with washing, the material falls off and sticks to everything. Besides that, it's a really cute jacket and unbelievably soft, but I ended up returning it for a similar jacket by mountain hardwear.

The major asset of this jacket is the softness. I was really bummed when it left fuzz all over my shirt the first couple of times I wore it. I've worn it about 7 or 8 times now and the fuzz problem is pretty much gone. I haven't washed it yet, so I don't know how well it wears or how soft it is after a wash.

This jacket is perfect for wearing to a yoga class. It is so soft and comfy. Order a size up than normal for the best fit.

I love this hoodie. It's so soft. Haven't washed it yet but a friend has one and said not to dry it or it will become hard. I am very happy with it.

Very warm. Very soft. Very comfortable. Very happy.

My daughter loved the jacket, but it was too small. It seemed to run small for its size. We returned it, and tried to order a bigger size, but they were out of stock (bummer)-she had gotten it for a Christmas present.

This is the best fleece I've ever had... It's so soft and comfortable. I was worried the fleece would get messed up in the wash, but I used a delicate cycle and a low tumble dry, and it came out just as soft as when I first got it. My sister even got one after I did because she loved it so much.

This is my favorite article of clothing. So soft and warm! Everyone comments on it. Not as fitted as pictured, but that was ok. Does shed, which is mildly irritating...but not enough to prevent me from planning to order another one!

This jacket feels just like a rabbit, it's wonderful; however, the fleece rubbed off on all my shirts and ruined quite a few. I exchanged it for a second and the same thing happened, even after washing.

My 9 y.o. daughter is wearing the xs. She is tall for her age and weighs about 75 lbs. It is very well made and VERY soft. She refuses to take it off and uses it as a blanket when she is chilly. Great back-to-school jacket. I think I will order the black for myself. She has the Odyssey Pink.

This Hoody is absolutely beautiful. It has both excellent functionality together with style and great looks. It is so very warm and so soft, yet very light. It feels and looks gorgeous. You will not be disappointed with this good quality garment. Service and communication was sensational. They are highly efficient. I highly recommend this as a store to buy from. I am a very happy and satisfied customer.

i love this fuzzy fleece!! i feel like brown bear! although i wish i would have gotten a size large, because it does run a little small.

This is the softest pet-able material ever made! I finally have something to look forward to when it gets cold outside... The Oso hoody! Normally wear a medium, but the large fits perfect. I have had the hoody for 2 months, and the material doesn't pill up like other polar fleece. Love it. Love it. Love it.

The hoody is very soft and warm. I have ordered several things from Backcountry.com and have always had very fast service and received it in excellent condition.

It's a Christmas present for my daughter but I would like it for myself. It's very soft and cute. I hope she likes it! Happy Holidays people!

My 11 yr. old loves her new coat. It is warm and fuzzy, and I can hardly get her to take it off...except to sleep. I think I'd like one for myself. Also, your price was cheaper than everyone else! Thanks so much!

I live in 0 degree F weather here in Alaska. I was impressed this jacket was warm enough to run from the store to my car. It's very cozy and comfortable for casual winter wear, just not for snowmachining or skiing. Everyone HAS to touch my coat! (it can get annoying, but can you blame them?) It hasn't shedded on me at all. Not even a little bit. I wear black too...nothing. I've tried on some knock offs that shedded really bad, but this NorthFace OSO does not! I get a lot of compliments with this jacket ;)

The feel of this jacket is crazy soft - that part is great. I'm not as enthusiastic about the fit - thought it would have a bit more of a streamlined fit on the side. I still love and would recommend this jacket for anyone who wants a warm, cozy comfy hoodie that's bound to become the first one you reach for when you get chilly.

The Oso fleece hoody I received a few weeks ago is great! I have received a lot of compliments on the look and the feel.
