This coat keeps you extra warm in the chilly months. It's not the most fashionable thing I own, but it sure does get the job done. I wear it almost every day in the winter months!

Don't let it fool you!!
So, your coat arrives and you say "hmmm... tiny box for a coat!" You proceed to open that tiny box and see a small package containing what's supposed to be a long, warm Northface coat.
Out comes the small package, pull out the coat that seems to be the weight of a feather and has the feel of something paper thin. If you're like me, your fist thought is "ok.... THIS is going back...."
Then, you think of Altrec's lifetime return guarantee, so you have nothing to lose whatsoever in giving it a try, retaining all tags and paperwork for when you're sure you'll be sending this puppy back.
Guess what.... you're gonna KEEP it! Yep. Something so paper thin and feather weight is has surprised you and you are HAPPY AND WARM!
Love it, love it, love it.

Superb!!
After a long thought about purchasing my North Face Women's Triple C Jacket, I finally decided to purchase it from Altrec. The price was reasonable and the jacket is just so amazing. The best thing about it is the warmth and the light weight makes it just perfect to wear in this chilling weather!! I would recommend to anyone who's looking for someone willing to invest in buying an amazing jacket.

great jacket for great price
The jacket is really nice, the only "problem" I have about it is that the sleeves did not get almost any insulation at all - I like to be warm all over :=))

My go-to Winter Coat
We are having a really mild winter in Boston this year. But, I wish I have bought this coat much earlier. The coat is stylish enough and really does the job to keep me warm! I am 5'4 and 120 lbs so I ordered a S and it fits nicely with enough room for a T and sweater. It's also long enough but not too long so walking kids to school and my dog is easy enough even with the coat all zipped up.
The only two things I would suggest:
1. Slightly bigger hood and some adjustment mechanism for the hood. I don't have a big head but I found the hood to be a little on the small side. When that winter wind really blows, having a slightly bigger hood to over part of my cheeks would be nice.
2. Use higher quality zipper. The zipper is not the easiest to use, one really has to align well at the bottom before the zip would function well. It hasn't caught on the side yet but I can see that will also be a problem later.
Otherwise, a very nice investment. My husband made me order it so he does not have to hear me complain about the cold Boston winter anymore.

Warm, functional, and cute!
I just moved to New England and was in search for a coat that would keep me warm and dry in all the winter elements while still having a bit of style-this coat is PERFECT. I primarily bought this coat as I take the bus to work and sometimes have a 5-6 block walk through a windy section of our city. I've had no problems with keeping warm and in fact have had to remove layers because I get a bit too hot (this is hard to believe given I'm ALWAYS cold). I also wore this coat over the weekend when we went hiking-both cold days with 5-6 inches of snow on the ground. I was warm as could be. I chose this coat especially because of the feminine coat and the removable hood and have not been disappointed. It's like walking around in a sleeping bag-sooo comfortable. I'm not sure how well it will keep water out but I wouldn't wear the coat in a down pour as that is what my raincoat is for. I think the coat does what it is designed to do and well worth the money.

Awsome Winter Coat
I received my coat today and am thrilled with every aspect associated with it. I found the coat to be a great length, a little below the knee. It is warm and “feather light “ to wear. The color is a nice black with zipped pockets on the outside of the coat as well as the inside, which I find to be a nice feature. I am pleased with the collar which is turtle like and the hood is large enough to use without having an additional inside hat.
I am 5’ 7” and normally wear a Small (size 2/4). I ordered a Small and found the coat size to run a little bit large, but it was not of a great concern to me as I will be wearing heavy clothing underneath.

Great jacket
I've been wanting a North Face jacket for some time. Glad I finally caved and treated myself. Awarm jacket without the bulk that you dread in the winter. I ordered size medium and ended up returning for a small. Definitely runs large.

Smart Purchase
i have wanted to order a long North Face jacket and was unsure of which one. I own a short one, 3/4 length one and others and I have been looking for one that is really long with a hood that is perfect for walking the dogs late at night on a cold night. This Triple C Jacket is the smartest choice. It answers all my needs. I couldn't decide between the black and brown. I always tend to buy black but guess what I like this one better in the brown. The only issue I had is I ordered the wrong size. I wear a medium in most North Face so I ordered a medium in this one going against the reviews saying it runs large. I need the small so I don't look like an astronaut walking around. I am 5'8 and 135 pounds with long arms. But the medium just made me feel too boxy. I reordered the small and the great thing about Altrec was they were running a free 2-day shipping. My wait is quick and before I know it I will be walking around with my 2 dogs all bundled up and warm not complaining that I have to walk the dogs again. Smart purchase for sure and as always North Face is a reliable brand. And Altrec is the place to buy it - always has the stock in the size and color you want and the best price available!!!

Mom loves it!
Bought this jacket for my mom and she loves it. She wears it every day (so far). I couldn't be happier with this purchase. My mom is really picky with her clothes. So I wasnt sure how she would like this but she tells me how warm she is, and how comfy it is

Full length warmth
Loved the build quality and features of this jacket. I owned a lot of North Face jacket and I rate this highly among all the jackets that I own. The jacket obviously protects up to the middle of the thighs, the 600 fill power of the down will keep you warm in the coldest of days. As with down jackets, it is not completely wind proof and the seams between the down sections do let air through. On those days you'd need a good waterproof/windproof shell with insulation anyways. I also liked that the jacket is relatively light for such a large jacket. I wish North Face would offer more colors and the choices are relatively "drab".

I have been wanting this forever!
I love this jacket. I have a shorter version which I also love, but in Minneapolis we need to keep the legs warm too! It is great for running around because it's warm and light. I wore it in the Fall to football games and will wear it to hockey in the winter. I'm so glad I finally have one of these!

The Jacket is warm, Light and the best. I can put this jacket in my purse. My favorite jacket, never cold. Usually I'm very cold Not this time babe.This is a phenomenal down jacket- it is extremely light weight, packs very small, but is also incredibly warm. I am 5'8/size 6 and wear a medium. The is a must have for the outdoor clothing arsenal/back-up layer for your pack. It provides good protection against the wind, and when temperatures get chilly it is an easy layer and light piece to throw on. I wear this out the door for ski-touring in as low as 5 degree weather, as well as an outer layer at 13,000ft in a biting cold wind to ski back down. It functions perfectly, and allows for great movement and flexibility. Reliable warmth and well cut for women, I also like the stitching and pocket placements. This is a fantastic go-to jacket for outdoor women and versatile for all kinds of activities. The weight to warmth ratio is it's biggest selling point..

love it
I bought this for myself. It keeps me warm even in windy day.I don't have to worry about cold any more. Plus it comes with lifetime warrenty. I do'nt have to worry about what to do if it is broken. The only thing that I do not like is it is too long for me. I wish it could be shorter.

Love it!
I've tried this coat on at Macy's and have been wanting to buy it for sometime now that I live in Chicago. This coat is great except I'm only 5.2 and it's a bit long on me but It's okay since it's SO windy and cold in winter I am always warm. I am not crazy about the material however because the older versions were more durable and thicker. The material in this coat is very thin for one and makes it look a bit cheap. I bought it in brown since the black and Grey are too dull.
Overall it's a great coat.

my second order. it's like sleeping bag!
Well, living in New York, we had an uncommon ice storm, as we were trying to wait it out, i was freezing and so, i got an early this years's christmas gift for my self. i am so happy to get this one again. this is the warmest coat i 've ever owned!

Love this coat!!
I just received this coat. I was looking for something simple, very warm and durable without all the bulk of traditional winter coats. I have to say I made the perfect choice!! I wore it for the first time today. It was 18 degrees and I was perfectly warm. It took some getting used to not having all the bulk, so until I put it on and wore it outside I wasn't sure. I am so glad I bought this coat. If you want a long coat that is warm, simple and very well made, this is for you. I cannot judge how waterproof it is, but I'm sure it is just as the tag states. It is a very well made coat, but then again The North Face is known for quality products. I am a happy, warm woman!!! :)

Super Triple C
After much searching I found the coat that keeps me warm waiting at the train station and walking to work no matter what the weather. It's also stylish. I bought medium although I'm small (5'2") because I want to wear it over heavy sweaters, but it's not ridiculously big. Great coat!

First North Face Coat
I heard so much about The North Face brand that I decided to buy one this winter. I wanted a long, down filled coat and decided this was the way to go. Unfortunately, I was freezing in this coat. Although it has a high down fill count of 700, without material to block the wind, it does not serve me well in this frigid Chicago temperature.
I was told by a rep that the Artic Parka may be a better buy for me as it has the Hyvent protection against the wind. I'm not giving up on the brand just trading one coat for another.
February 15, 2011
Quality and style
I must admit I have not worn it yet, but I can tell that it is very well made and will be plenty warm. Love that it is light weight and more attractive than any down coat I have seen (And I've been looking a lot for about 4 years!) I ordered the large, based on the size guide, and it is a bit big; I may try to get a medium instead. I'm not sure I like the color, graphite, but it is neutral and will not show dirt if it rubs against the car. I have two suggestions for North Face: more colors, and a nylon rather than polyester lining. All of these issues can be overlooked, because it is very comfortable, warm, stylish, and designed with attention to detail.

Great purchase!
Arrived just in time to face de after storm chill in Chicago! Doing a great job so far. Super recommended to very cold weather! Very warm, although fits great! Not bulky at all, which is a big plus. Certainly worth the price.

Love it!
I love this coat. I am 5' 8" and 140 lbs. I ordered the medium and was concerned about whether sleeves would be long enough. They fit perfectly. It's lightweight, not at all cumbersome, keeps me warm as toast and looks very stylish. I can wear it to work but it's great for walking my 80 lb Lab in sub zero temperatures.

Great Jacket
I'm a mom who, like other moms, is constantly in and out of the car, the house, schools, and activities. I needed a warm jacket that I could throw on and not be bulky. I found it! It is so warm, and our winter in New Jersey has been freezing with tons of snow. This was the best purchase! Since I just got it, i can't comment too much about the durability, but I can say that it is very warm and lightweight and not bulky AT ALL! love it.

Perfect for the cold winter!
I ordered this coat as an alternative to my shorter, ski type jacket for everyday use. I usually hate wearing winter coats because of the weight and bulk; however this is very light weight and not bulky at all. I love the length and find it easy to get in and out of the car; it's even comfortable for driving - especially if you unzip it from the bottom. This particular coat has a more flattering silhouette than comparable versions from other makers. It is even nice enought for church on those snowy, cold mornings. I did not buy this for rain wear - only cold and snow. Overall, great warmth without the bulk!

Best Winter Jacket
Every North Face product I own is incredibly durable and very well made!! This jacket is no exception! I am often outdoors and walk quite a bit and can honestly say this is the warmest jacket I own! I love it! It is very stylish and you can dress it up or down.

Great durable down coat
I borrowed my friend's coat for a week and had to get one myself. I wear a size 6/8, and I usually order a large coat, but the medium was a good fit. Easy to care for.

Light yet gives warmth
Bought this jacket for my wife and she loves it. It is light, easy to wear and gives the warmth that she likes.

Warmest Coat
This coat is very warm yet lightweight enough to be comfortable. The fabric is soft and cleans easily. I have worn this coat in temperatures that were way below zero with the wind chill and was warm and comfortable the entire time.

Triple c
I bought this jacket and it does keep me warm! I think it runs a little big compared to other north face jackets. I got an xs and I'm thinking I might return for something a little more slim line.
January 6, 2011
Keeps you warm!
This jacket really keeps you warm and is super lightweight! I did return it though in search of something a little more flattering....
January 4, 2011
nice jacket
The first thing I noticed about this jacket is that, it is very light for the length. The shell material is nice also. The design is neat. A perfect jacket for casual wear, while keeping the legs from cold winds.

Warmest coat ever!
I am absolutely thrilled with this coat.! It is so warm but yet so light and not bulky at all. I highly recommend it.

Triple C Jacket
Love this jacket! I bought it a couple of days before Christmas and did the 2 day delivery. This coat my mother wanted and she can't say enough good things about it, warm, nice and long, she loves it!
January 2, 2011
I think this jacket is well worth the money and the way it fits is very comfortable

I'd recommend it!
I ordered this jacket as my winter dog walking coat because I was tired of being cold while walking the dog. So far, I love the jacket and find myself wearing it for far more than just walking the dog! The fit is very good--it shows an hourglass figure vs. making a gal feel like she is a stay-puff marshmallow! :) I am 5'9" and usually weigh around 138 but am currently 7.5 mos pregnant and the jacket fits my growing belly well! The sleeves are long enough where cold air doesn't sneak in and I can sit in my car without it feeling like I will pull the seams apart. There are many upsides to this jacket. The only 2 downsides I can pick apart would be #1 - the quality of the zipper vs. other North Face jackets I have--it seems that the zipper may be a little less durable than others I have seen. (but I have not had any problems with it so far); #2 is that the lining of the pockets used to be fleece lined-- they must have scaled back on that for cost savings?

Great Coat
This is a great coat! I had been looking at it for awhile online, and wanted to purchase it, but I was unable to locate it at any store near me. Therefore, I ordered it online and received it in three days during a very cold spell. It is absolutely the best purchase I made. Not only is it warm, and comfortable, but the color is so rich and pretty. It's the type of coat that you can dress up or down. I absolutely love it!

NorthFace Parka (700 fill)
This coat is the best purchase I've made in a long time. I'm extremely pleased with the warmth and quality of the coat. It's extremely comfortable and light weight but still keeps me warm against any kind of winter weather. I highly recommend this coat!!

Great Coat
Bought this for my wife who is always cold. It's like walking around in a sleeping bag, so it does the job.

Top 5 Purchases Ever
I worried about the hefty price tag of the the Women's Triple C Jacket. Since it arrived, I haven't had a single regret because I *love* this coat and can see myself wearing it forever. It is super stylish and perfectly toasty (but not too hot). Great length (mid-calf on me, 5'1") to keep my legs warm. Can zip or snap (even snaps only keep out the cold). Love the hood which when snugged stays up comfortably. Not at all bulky - it's the best winter coat I've ever owned!
