Good Coat, Messed up Sizing

By Anonymous Ranked #217 - Men's Down Jackets February 1, 2008

I'm 6'3" 205 lbs and normally wear a size XL in The North Face. I bought this coat in size L and it was so big that I had to return it for a M. Now the sleeves on the M are slightly too short, which is annoying. I can't believe they make this coat in a 3XL - I can't imagine who could wear that.

If you have the time and luck to find a size that works for you, it is a good coat. A little more dressy (why can't TNF get their 485 series right so I can just buy one of those?) than normal northface stuff, and the brown color has a grey look to it that is cool. The coat is also heavy and bulky, which is kind of the point with something like this, so don't expect anything else.

Overall, not bad, but could be better - much like a lot of recent TNF stuff in my opinion.
