The North Face Venture Parka - Men's
Not recommended
By Stephan Brocoum
Ranked #1684 - Men's Rain Jackets
February 24, 2009
This item is listed as a parka. It only has a one way zipper so that if you want to sit down with the parka partially zipped it is very awkward, Also there is no liner. The waterproof lining is against your skin and uncomfortable and sweaty. It seems as if North Face was trying to save money by not using a two way zipper on a parka length jacket and omitting the mesh liner most other waterproof jackets/parkas have.
Definitely not recommended.
