The North Face Helicity Windstopper Down Jacket - Women's

bought this jacket for my girlfriend, absolutely bombproof. skied twice in it this year in weather less than 20 degrees and she only had to wear a t-shirt underneath. tons of compliments as well.

Overall a nice jacket. Would be better if the hood was different. The hood does not fill well, always tugging to keep it down on your head. The other thing is it needs a powder skirt, as it would stop with the draft the comes up the bottom the a jacket.

Got my jacket about 2 months ago and have had time to test it in our wonderful winter weather recently (Iowa)... It's warm, has room underneath of it for layers, but it is SHORT (only hits at my hip) and I don't really get the 1/2 hood? The hood doesn't fully cover your head... maybe this is a feature I don't fully understand, but not ideal for trying to stay warm on winter treks. The shortness is what really gets me though, without a longer layer underneath you may experience icy blasts on your midriff. It's a bit bulky- but not too bad. I like it overall... just wish it was about 2-3 inches longer!

No complaints at all about this coat. I just moved to Iowa from Seattle and thought it might be overkill, but not at all. I also think it's a bit more flattering than most down jackets I've tried on.

Love this coat! I've worn it on lift-access skiing in temps under 15 degrees and I was warm and comfortable. I've been cold in every other jacket I've owned. The fit is cute also.

this jacket was okay. it was really warm but too puffy for me. It was also a little short on me but i also have a really long torso. I did end up returning this jacket and purchasing a different north face jacket.

Loved the color, but the fit was very narrow and no XL made. Had to return it.
Purchased a MT. Hardware down instead. Found it let the wind in through the zipper...they need a placket over it! Otherwise lovely.

I purchased this coat for the warmth. This is a warm coat but, I have used warmer. What I really love about this coat is the sticking of the down. The back which is not shown has great sticking too. I have warn this coat for about 2 weeks and have gotten several comments from other women that they like the cut and the sticking. This is the perfect coat for around town on the weekend, after hitting the slopes. If you plan on being outside for a long time on cold night. I would find a coat that has a longer cut.

This is NOT windproof or even warm. I hate it and 'cause I trusted the Gearheads, I froze for a week while hunting. So thanks Backcounty!!!!!!!!!!!

This jacket is NOT windproof. I live in Wy where the gearheads said this would be the best jacket for the conditions here, well I went hunting and FROZE for a week. This might be an ok 100$'s. So just wanted to give a shout out to the gearheads. Would not let my dog wear this!!!!!
