The North Face Condor Triclimate Jacket - Men's
This Coats a Ripper! (Literally)

This is my first experience with North Face, which I've always assumed based off of price and popularity was an outstanding brand. Thats not the case with this jacket. On it's first day out a slight fall on some ice scraped and tore a rip in back of this coat, and after a couple more trips to the hill there's another huge rip in the sleeve where it got hung up on some trees. I've been skiing for 20+ years and have never had such a bad experience with a coat. The zippers stick, the hoods not helmet compatible and when zipped up all the way it's a tight fit over your face. I'm not very impressed with it's water proofing either.
Sorry about all the negativity, but the best part to me? North Face doesn't warranty against burns, tears or rips.
