This Is the Greatest Jacket EVER! It keeps you so warm and the pockets are awesome. Fits like a glove but not too tight. Not bulky either. I love this Jacket!

Outstanding product and value. First, I was amazed at the speed in which the jacket was delivered. I ordered this for my 15 year old granddaughter. She was overjoyed to get such a great birthday gift. She is very small and this jacket looks wonderful on her. Not big and bulky but very "warm and snuggly" she says. It's a great price and wonderful jacket. Thanks!

I'm a fan! Love this jacket. I'm a huge fan of fleece, but I'm 5'9" so it's rather tough to find fleece that fits well, but this does. Not too short, not too long, sleeves are a good length, this jacket is not too fitted so it's good for layering, but it does not have a boxy fit either. I just had to buy another in a different color. =) Nice and toasty, quick shipping too.

Love it! I selected free shipping and got it in just 4 days! That is great! I love the jacket. I was afraid that it might be too big, because of the "relaxed fit", but it fits perfectly with room for layers underneath. I like that the realaxed fit is not slouchy. Can't wait for a cold day to wear it!

Warm and stylish This jacket is warm and the fleece is very soft and tightly woven. Its great for a nice fall day with just a t-shirt or can be worn with layers for a cold day. I wear it around everywhere I go.

Great jacket at a great price. I own both the North Face Denali and the North Face Khumbu jacket. While the Denali is well made and has a heavier fleece fabric (to block wind) it also has a big price tag. My Khumbu jacket fits better then the Denali (manly and boxy fit) whereas the Khumbu is longer and more fitted at the waist and provides excellent protection from the cold at an excellent price (half of what the Denali is). I highly recommend the Khumbu and decided to purchase more in all of the colors. The Khumbu is my favorite versatile lightweight jacket!!

Excellent My daughter wanted this jacket for her birthday; she loves it! She wears it everywhere and it always looks great. It also keeps her very warm since teenagers don't want to wear bulky winter coats. Thanks for the ease of ordering. Sue

Superb Quality... I purchased my first Khumbu jacket 2 years ago and wore it non-stop. I liked it so much I recently purchased another one. The Khumbu is beyond warm no matter what the condition. I really do love it! I recommend this jacket to anyone looking for a high quality, durable and comfortable jacket.

Highly recommend This jacket is great. The fit is perfect. I also have the Denali which is great for windy and real cold conditions- the Khumbu is fantastic the rest of the time. You can't go wrong with North Face and Altrec!

Nice and warm, good quality! Fits nice, and can use as a layering piece, its made very well, and woven very tightly, the size is just right for a medium jacket, sleeves are just long enough, and I am tall,kept me warm on a very rainy northern foggy night on the top of a mountain in October! Its light and not bulky also.

A bit disappointed in the We love the color, however, after wearing the jacket less than one week, our daughter has pilling, lots of little bumps,all over jacket. It started the first day on the sleeves and now it is everywhere. We are greatly disappointed in the quality of the fleece. I have had a performance fleece, not NorthFace, that I have been wearing for work for two seasons now, and there is no pilling on it, and it is worn almost daily.

Great value and quality! Delivery was fast. Very happy. I got this jacket for my daughter. She really wanted a Northface fleece and I wasn't sure which jacket to get. She is very happy with this one and the fit is perfect. It has a flattering fit instead of the usual bulky look you see with most fleece jackets and its warm too! I would recommend.

Great outdoor fleece, Highly recommended. I was very pleasantly pleased with the purchase of my Khumbu Jacket,for a jacket that is so light in weight i was very surprised how warm it is.Many fleeces i have purchased elsewhere just haven't been long enough for me, this was is perfect, it is tailored to a very high standard, i like the the zipped pockets rather than open ones.I recommend this Jacket to any woman who would like a lightweight but very warm piece of outer clothing.

Jacket was a gift, my daughter loved it. Great fit and warm. Had trouble finding one in a local store and was happy to find it online at Altrec. Delivery was unbelievable fast and jacket was exactly what we expected. Will definitely shop here again in the future.

PERFECT! I love my Khumbu jacket. The fit, price, protection, overall weight, quality...I can't say enough! I love that I have washed it over and over again and it still looks brand new. I really wanted the NF Denali Jacket but instead got this one because of the price. I am so happy with my decision. It is great for layering also. I am also satisfied with Altrec. Shipping was fast! GREATLY RECOMMENDED! Keep up the great work!

Soft and Cozy I bought this jacket in hopes of a warm fleece that would also block out the wind. Well, it is warm and cozy with an insulating layer underneath in cold weather, but it does let the wind thru... so was dissappointed with that. Great for throwing on when going out and about... walking, to town(looks sharp) and for keeping you warm, with that extra layer underneath.

Great jacket! Love, love, love this jacket. Ordered a small and is definitely fitted with just a long sleeve t-shirt under it. If you want to wear it over a sweatshirt or sweater order a medium.

Excellent value I bought this jacket for a trip to Patagonia, from which I have just returned. It was the best, keeping me warm in the fierce winds of that region. Warmth without excessive bulk.

Love my Khumbu!! Great job with the fast shipping! love it!
This is my second khumbu, my first is black and we have 2 white dogs so i decided to get one in moonlight so their hair wouldn't show. I love my first one and am keeping it zipped into my north face Varius shell. i love having that option (thanks North Face)
I thought about splurging for the Denali but i just can't bring myself to pay almost double when the Khumbu is SOOO GREAT!! Definitely recommend the Khumbu to everyone!

Rebecca -03/31/08 This fleece is great it is so comfortable and warm. I ordered it on Wednesday and got it on Friday. Which was awesome cause it was scheduled to come with in 4-7 business days. I have worn it twice already, it really does a good job keeping you protected from the wind and is water resistant. I am very happy with this product, I would definitely recommend it!!! I also would recommend Altrec.com they have great customer service!!!
