The North Face Transit Down Jacket - Women's

The North Face Women’s Transit Jacket ensures you stay warm while you wait for the light-rail. The North Face insulated this close-cut jacket with 600-fill down and made it water-repellent for protection in frigid temps and light snowfall. A removable hood stops your body heat from pouring out of your head, and a media pocket holds your cell phone or MP3 close at hand.

Bottom Line: Don’t just stand there with your teeth chattering—pull on the Transit Jacket.

Not really as the outer material is made of water resistant nylon- and would also be easy to clean.

I love this jacket! I just received it yesterday and could not be more happy. I have a long torso so the length of this jacket is perfect for me! Comes with a hood that can be removed and also the sleeves get tighter around your wrist which is a feature that I really like!

I'm thinking of buying the The North Face Transit Down Jacket- Women's, but am a little hesitant as I read here that the fit is not flattering. Does it look too puffy and would this color attract dirt and stains? I already have a Black Redpoint jacket which is really warm but does not have too attractive a fit! Can anyone help me make a decision?

I wouldn't say that this jacket has the most flattering lines in the TNF line. Here are a few other options that you might want to look at: Thunder Jacket, Tempest Down, Amtoinette, Aviatrix, Destiny Down. I think all of these have very nice cuts if you want something down that is more flattering.

Perfect Jacket

By:
April 26, 2009

I never thought I could be so passionate about a jacket, but I love this one. It is magically warm without being bulky or heavy. I'm 5'5" and about 125 pounds and it fits perfectly. I got the long version of this coat, in black, earlier in the year as a gift and I don't how I lived without one before. I live outside of Philly and it was a nasty winter.

Nice Jacket

By:
January 9, 2009

I bought this jacket for my 19 year old daughter to wear walking around the cold Michigan campus. She has tried it out for that and REALLY likes it. She's short, so it covers her to her thigh, without being too long. She's a size 6 generally and first ordered a medium, reading that they run small. I'm a 10-12 and it fit me, so I quickly ordered a small so she'd have the right size for Christmas. The small was perfect. I had asked advice from Backcountry on this and they didn't really have good advice on this. I'd just say this jacket runs true to size.

Try looking at the measurement chart above under "select options" for small & Xsmall to see which would fit best.I am 5'4" and 115 lbs. with a petite upper body, and just got an XS and it fits perfectly but it's definitely not big nor roomy - but I also prefer fitted jackets, which the XS is for me. I am fine with 2 layers under (base layer + sweater) and even a vest.

Great Jacket

By:
January 29, 2009

I'm really pleased with this jacket. It kept me nice and warm walking across campus with temps in the low 30's. I got it in Cherry Stain Brown, size small (I'm 5'7'' and 118 lbs), and it fits very well, leaving some room for layering if I choose. I was afraid the arms would be too short, but they're not. The color is beautiful. Also, I was afraid removing the hood would leave the snaps visible, but the collar has a convenient little flap that covers the snaps.

Hey Diana,The best thing I've found to do is spray a bunch of "spray-n-wash" on the dirty areas, reapply it every 30 minutes for a couple of hours and then wash it as you normally would. If the stains are really bad do the same thing but give them a heavy spray and let it soak overnight. That has gotten about everything out of our jackets and it won't damage the material.Hope that helps.

This jacket is 3" longer than the Greenland. The Transit has a center back length of 30", while the Greenland only has a center back length of 27". I will let you decide it that will fall at your thigh or not.

I was concerned when I received this jacket that it wouldn't be warm enough, as it is so thin and lightweight........but I have been out in below freezing temps, and it is great - warm but not heavy & bulky. Fits well, and good length.

Love the length, warmth, color (cherry stained brown) and the fact that it's washable! I have small children so everything must be washable... Still can't get over value here compared to NF itself! And shipping was super fast! Only wish it was a bit more tapered at the waist.

Tried on a Large North Face Jacket (different type) and it just fit. So I ordered an XL to allow for a sweater underneath. It is a little larger than I expected. The sleeves are too long but overall I like the jacket. It is not very flattering to the figure but hopefully it will keep me warm.

This jacket does fit pretty true to size. If she's on the small end of a 6 I'd go with a small but if she's on the verge of a 6/7 then shoot for a medium. If she's going to be layering I'd definitely go with a medium.The hood is a removable hood.Hope that helps.

Warm and Practical

By:
January 14, 2009

I bought this jacket just before Christmas and I really like it. It is very light weight, but very warm (especially today when it was -16 degrees on my way to work). I normally wear smalls in shirts but ordered a medium and it fits pretty well - a little big, but room for big sweatshirts/sweaters. The only thing is that I wish it were a bit longer because it just barely cover my bottom but it said that it would come to about mid-thigh.

Nice jacket but sleeves are long.

By:
February 3, 2009

Just got my jacket today, in Vintage White (small). Looks great and is perfect for cold midwest winters. Runs true to size except for the sleeves. They're pretty long, so I'll have to fold them in. I was surprised by this considering that I tried this jacket on in a nearby store, and the sleeves fit fine.
