Really liked it!! It is very warm considering it is so light weight. Seems like it ran a little big.

I love this jacket! It is so light you don't even realize you are wearing it, yet keeps you warm and toasty on those cold days. I would definitely recommend!

This jacket is light yet super warm. I live in Durango, CO and use it from day to night with fluctuating temp ranges and it is great. True to size fit. Loved it so much I bought the vest!

Beautiful and stylish jacket. I was expecting something warmer though.

I love this jacket. I bought one for my husband for Christmas, and he loved his so much, I bought myself one in woman's. It is extremely warm and I plan to wear it on my upcoming ski vacation in Breckenridge, Colorado.

I bought one to wear under my shell to ski in bitter Vermont. I love it! The jacket is very light weight but extremely warm. My daughter has one too.
Anonymous - 2010-01-24Lightweight yet warm
I wanted a down jacket and my husband bought me this jacket for xmas. I really love it because it is so light and very warm. Great for those cold days watching the boys Nordic racing!
Diana Smith - 2010-01-24Super jacket!
Bought one jacket and enjoyed it so much I bought another one.
It looks smart and is good for chilly weather but not for freezing temps.
The fit is accurate not too small nor too large.
Anonymous - 2010-01-20Excellent Choice
I am always so cold, and I live in the South. This jacket is extraordinarily light, but keeps me so warm. It is also very fashionable. So many people give me positive feedback on it and ask where they can get one.

lightweight and warm!!! I love to wear this jacket because it feels like I have nothing but a feather on!!!
Susan Clopton - 2010-01-14Great Jacket
Beautifully crafted and just the right weight to wear under a shell when hiking, snow shoeing, skiing on a cold day or alone on a warmer one

Love this jacket! Great fit, true to size. I have gotten several compliments. It is so lightweight,comfortable and warm. As usual I received great service from Altrec.
Andrew - 2010-01-07Great Women's Jacket!
I purchased this jacket for my wife for Christmas and she absolutely loves it! Very lightweight but exceptionally warm and comfortable. Great product. The North Face always delivers quality and I will continue to be a loyal customer!

great jacket. incredibly light weight but very warm. the jacket is short - so if you're in the market for something that is longer, don't go this route. very sharp looking.
John Jenson - 2010-01-03super nice coat would recomend it to anyone..
great coat looks great on my daughter she loves it...
JLoggins - 2009-12-26GREAT PURCHASE!!!
This jacket is great! It is very warm, light weight and goes great with everything (I bought it in black). I live in the midwest so are winters are bad, this jacket will definitely keep me nice and warm. Also, as soon as I received mine in the mail...my husband ordered the same one in mens! That's how nice this jacket is.
patricia Hilton - 2009-12-24Beautiful...functional
This jacket is so light weight I didn't think it was included in the shipping package! LOVE it. It is warm, comfortable, and stylish with no bulk.
Hun Nam - 2009-12-23My mom's favorite jacket!
This jacket is very light but warm. It's perfect for the chilly weather. I bought it for my mom and she really like it.
Anonymous - 2009-12-21Fabulous Jacket
I bought one of these for my daughter last year and have wanted one ever since. We just got back from a trip to Antarctica where several women bought another brand on the ship costing $100 more and had a shorter waist length. Love love love this lightweight coat. Great for travel and warm as toast but never makes you hot.
Dee - 2009-12-18love this jacket!
This jacket is so warm and light, it's perfect for the frigid weather and you barely feel its weight, it's also so easy to pack it and put it away in a small pocket or bag.
Anonymous - 2009-11-12Buy it!
This is a sweet jacket. I would spend the money all over agAin! I though it was true to size.
Marcy - 2009-11-07Love this jacket!!
This jacket is awesome!! Very lightweight,stylish,and very warm. I would probably recommend going up a size, feels kind of snug in the shoulder area and I'm pretty small. I usually wear a small in the fleeces and purchased a medium in this jacket and may have even ordered a large because of the shoulder room!! I don't think it is true to size. I'm 5"6 and 130lbs.
kit - 2009-05-06my absolute FAVE down sweater /jacket
outstanding feel, fit, warmth.
I LOVE this jacket, own it in 4 colors and buy it whenever it's on sale.
- silky feel
- low static, low crinkle
- drawstring at hip to stop aircirc
- high zippable neck
- very stuffable
- goof length, good cut
I wear this as my top 'suitcoat' layer indoors all winter, dress it up or down.
It beats any down sweater competition, and I have tried ALL the other brands!
Anonymous - 2009-05-01Wow - What a jacket!
I've never purchased a North Face product before, and I couldn't be more thrilled!! Quality gear that is also fashionable - it doesn't get much better than that!! This jacket is lightweight, yet heavy duty and stunning to look at! I am now a North Face fan!!!
rona gheysens - 2009-04-29ffantastically constructed, warm cozy and light
it was a pleasure shopping for this jacket an even a greater joy
in wearing it
Anonymous - 2009-03-30So light and warm
This jacket is very warm and soft and packs to a size of a softball. The material seems very delicate, so I would not use it as a primary, daily jacket. However, it's a perfect light layering option. I'm 5'4" and Small fits right at the hips. The powder blue color is just dreamy, and does not look 'metalic' like it seems in this picture.
Dee - 2009-02-14Weightless portable reliable warmth
This jacket packs down to a small pocket that can be stowed in hip pack. Great to have along skiing to layer under a shell with minimal bulk when the temp drops. The size small fits very comfortably and the sleeves are long enough for 5'9" height. Of the three 800 down-fill jackets I compared (Mtn.Hardware & Patagonia were the others)the North Face had the best features and fit. Now I'm looking at the TNF 800 vest.
Marisa Daddona - 2009-02-08Fits like a glove
Fits like a glove, soft and warm. The best part is not bulky like most winter coats. I really had a hard time chosing a color but I am sporting the green! I would order one in each color if I could!
Sonia Driscoll - 2009-02-01Best Jacket I have owned!
I love this jacket. I normally like to get my winter jackets a bit larger, so I can layer a fleece underneath if needed but I would have been happy ordering true to size. I got a L, but would have been happy still with a M. I got the Kiwi Green color, and it is awesome! I get compliments every time I wear it. I live in N. Japan and winters average 20 degrees. This jacket is so warm. It is so light weight and feels thin, but believe me, it is super cozy! I wish I could have one in every color! Top quality workmanship, North Face is terrific!
William Irick - 2009-01-14Very Nice Jacket
I bought this for my wife and she loves it. It's so lightweight and yet very warm. It was -1F the day it arrived and she put it on and went walking for an hour. She returned and declared it the best down jacket she has ever owned. Now all her sisters want one as well.
HepCat - 2009-01-04Better quality overall
When I compared a size small to other companies making a similar jacket,(Patagonia, Backcountry) I found this jacket to fit better, be better built, and was warmer. I wear this jacket alone or as a layer under a shell, it's surprisingly warm without being really puffy. 800 fill is the way to go.
me in pv - 2008-11-04Great Jacket!
Love this jacket. So lightweight but warm. Customer service was great as always.
mark pellerin - 2008-09-14Great Jacket
My girlfriend loves this jacket because it is very light & soft and fits nice and trim. She especially likes luxurious material and 800 fill down making it very comfy to wear anywhere.
ann - 2008-09-07Luxurious Jacket
I love the way this jacket looks and feels. Nice fitting, beautiful fabric, quilt pattern and soft sheen to fabric. Very luxurious and comfy. I get so many compliments. Like the pockets and fit.
Anonymous - 2008-09-07great lightweight jacket
I just love this jacket. It is the lightest, silkiest, softest and best fittting down jacket I've owned. The pertex material is really soft and beautiful and 800 fill down has nice warmth without being bulky.
Anonymous - 2010-01-20Love it!
I tried one on at a local store early in the season and loved it. It's so lightweight and soft, you don't realize you have one on. Sadly though, I didn't buy it and when I got this one at Altrec, its a little tight. I'm not sure why but possibly one was the 08 version and this one the 09. It upset me to return it but would recommend it to anyone! If it fits you, it's an absolutely beautiful coat and from everything I read, its also warm.
Anonymous - 2009-12-22Warm and Cozy
I don't know if I am going to keep it or not because I would like this kind of jacket to be little longer but this jacket seems little bit short on me. But still it is really warm and cozy!
Anonymous - 2009-05-18not quite right
I tried the grey one but it has too much sheen. The length was good but the upper-arm area was too big & bulky and looked strange. I really wanted to like this jacket, but it just wasn't quite right for me. Many thanks to Altrec's customer service dept though!
LVS - 2009-05-02Not quite right
I ordered this jacket in the surf blue color. It had bright red binding on the inside seams, and you could dark pieces of down through out the jacket. I sent it back! Otherwise, in other colors, it would have been acceptable.
Anonymous - 2010-02-07Northface Thunder
I got this jacket as a gift for Christmas. Less than one month later, I have 4 holes in it and the down is pouring out of it. All of this is due to a day of sledding in Maine with the kids. This is unacceptable to me in an active wear coat that is touted as "Built to endure extremes of weather and terrain, Summit Series® products deliver the highest level of performance from base camp to summit." This is my first and only North Face product. I will not spend money on their stuff again. Further, when I returned to the shop to discuss repair options, the shopkeep who helped me confessed that the same had happened to his daughter with her Thunder (again, less than a month after purchase). He stated that the coat is a piece of %$#@. For the prices they charge, Northface ought to be ashamed. Certainly, this coat would not withstand a summit of any mountain if it couldn't withstand a trip to the sledding hill with kiddies. Do not waste your money.
