The North Face Women's Plasma Thermal Jacket

February 06, 2012

The jacket is light, yet warm. I love the pit vents, when the sun comes put it adds just enough ventalation to maintain comfort. The fit was as expected, with enought room for a sweater on cooler days.

Great Jacket!

This is a great product. The down insulation makes it very light and very warm. Waterproof exterior is great in wet conditions. We have two of them (men's and women's) and we would definitley recommend.

Best Winter Jacket
January 19, 2012

This jacket is absolutely amazing. You could go with a t-shirt + this jacket and it'll could handle 20's. This jacket is very comfortable that's very soft, thin and lightweight. Also its amazing that it is wind proof and water resistance. This jacket also has amazing features such as the Pitt Zip and a removable hood. You can use this anywhere that get extremely cold with lots of snow,wind and freezing rain. The best thing is that it has lifetime warranty! It is totally worth the money and I'm very happy with this purchase.

Awesome All Weather Jacket

Bought this for my wife too keep her dry on those nasty cold rainy days in manhattan and for when we go away to vermont/adirondacks. Overall, this is really a great jacket. She loves the breathability of it, and says it's as warm as her "fancy" non-north face parka (which is down) but a lot more breathable. We just had this outside in 20 degree weather with really strong winds and she noticed how useful a jacket like this really is. Since she did not have a "non-fancy"/casual winter jacket, this was perfect. Would highly recommend it. Btw, it is stylish and has a nice fit. She is 5'5, 130 lbs, fit, athletic, (strong arms/shoulders) and a small fits her nicely. Hope that helps.

Excelent product

This is a great jacket, The windproof is excellent, the same with the waterproof. I recomend this product 100%. I have the same for men and it's great, for the Chilean winter I recomend it. Here in winter it's almost 8 degrees Celsius. I test it on Europe and waas great too.

nice wind/water proof, insulated jacket

Overall it's a very nice jacket. Fits good, warm, good looking jacket. One thing that I don't like is the wrist adjustments on the two sleeves. It's a plastic flap with velcro to tighten the fit of your wristband. For me having a small wristband, it looks wierd to have them folded so much to fit my wrist on eacn side.

Good jacket. Typical of TNF quality and fit. Careful, the white/light grey color scheme is actually more like white/carbon. A great jacket for the ski slopes or light mountaineering.

This jacket is extremely lightweight for the warmth it provides. Taking out of the package, I thought it felt more like a thick raincoat...but after trying it on, I began to overheat (indoors) pretty quickly. I've had it for about a month and a half now and am very happy with the purchase. It doesn't get very cold where I live, but I can say that it does its job in temps down to the mid 30s (with just a t-shirt on underneath). I would have to guess that a couple layers along with this jacket would keep you warm in freezing temps. Fit: I'm 5' 9", 125 lbs and a small fits perfectly. My height is mostly in my legs though...if my arms were any longer, I'd probably go with a medium just for the sleeve length.

great for subzero temp

I wore this jacket with just a cotton sweater underneath while it was -19 F out, and i felt just fine! This is my first winter ever, and I came from a tropical country! This jacket lessens my regret in ever moving to Minnesota. :-)

Second Time Around
December 23, 2010

I purchased a North Face Plasma jacket a couple of years ago and have been extremely pleased with it. I absolutely love the perma loft insulation. The jacket is waterproof and warm in the coldest of weather and is extremely lightweight. It is so nice going out in the winter without having to put a really heavy jacket on in order to keep warm. I live in an area that is pretty cold in the winter time and I like to wear sweatshirts a lot. I purchased the second jacket in a bigger size so that I could easily slide it over my sweatshirts should I want to wear one wherever I am going. The smaller size is perfect for when I'm out shopping. It provides me with warmth when I'm outdoors, but I'm not a sweatball when I'm walking around in the store. I LOVE both my jackets!

Nice Jacket

The jacket is very nice, light weight, and warm but I'm not too crazy about all the velcro. It sticks to my sweaters and scarf when it rubs against them.

Great Jacket!

If you are looking for a WARM jacket this is it. It definitely keeps you warm and its not heavy. The perfect winter jacket with a ton of pockets which I love.

Solid overall

Bought it for the wife for Christmas. She loves it and keeps her warm waiting for the train north of Boston in temperatures that can be as low as 10 degrees on any day of the week.

AMAZING FEEL

I haven't bought this jacket yet, but have tried it on a few times at the North Face store in hope to buy it soon. But wow, this jacket is soo comfortable on the inside. Very soft, and warm inside unlike a lot of the other North Face jackets where it's really stiff and you can't help but be annoyed by the pit vents that crawl up your armpits...Highly recommended for comfort.

Nice fit but meant for spring or autumn weathers only

Good: Light, nice fit. Bad: Meant for spring/autumn(50F to 65F). Not useful for cold temperatures.

Great Jacket!

This is a great jacket that provides warmth and it is light, not like some jackets that can have a lot of bulk. To me it runs on the small side especially if you have a lighter layer underneath, you might want to size up.

Perfect

This is a jacket for all winter long. Single shell jacket, so you dont have to mess with layers. Perfect for the New England winters. Warm enough for the coldest days, and will keep you dry. Don't be fooled if it looks light weight. The hood removes with ease. And stylish enough for anywhere. Great Buy! My wife loves it.

It's a wonderful Jacket

The Jacket is not only warm, but is very stylish and my daughter loves it..
