I mean no offense to other reviewers, but I have no idea what product they are referring to.

I have become increasingly disappointed in the quality and value of The North Face products, particularly those costing less than $200.00. I use that price point because items at that level, or greater, seem to embody traditional North Face quality; below that, they are mediocre, poor or plain dismal. In the case of the fleece pullover, even at the sale price it simply costs too much. While not terrible, it is something that one would expect in Target or Walmart; for no more than $19.95. The North Face is not the only name brand whose quality had been compromised in the interest of profit. However, it is a shame to see it deteriorate. BTW: it continues to be a pleasure to deal with Backcountry; good service and an excellent return policy.

I have bought The North Face products, like many, over the years. Some are excellent, others very poor. This item falls into the latter category. It is flimsy and only of mediocre quality. I have seen jackets at half the price that were superior. My opinion is that The North Face makes so many items, that one has to be careful to select those that live up to the manufacturer's reputation. The only redeeming aspect is that this site is a completely reliable merchant.

I returned the jacket for one (1) reason: the cuffs were huge.

I fall between a large and extra-large and ordered the latter. While it was too big, my impresion was that even a "large" would have been unacceptable. The diameter of the cuffs was literally two (2) inches larger than they should be. Very strange.

It is, however, nice to deal with a reliable merchant like this.

The "fit and finish" were surprisingly poor. The item was returned; the only redeeming aspect was dealing with this site.

The sweater is made of a thin cotton weave; however, the most troublesome aspect is the elastic banding. Very poor. The item is being returned.
