Best Birthday Gift
I am a college student so i have to walk all around campus to attend my classes. I didnt want a heavy jacket to be carrying around so i purchased this jacket. I wear it everyday because its light and warm. I am really happy with this purchase. I really recommend this jacket, especially if you have to be outside for a long period.

nice comfy jacket
it's fit and not so bulky, perfect for spring and fall seasons in DC with nice enough wind protection for outdoors and breathable when indoors. Run a bit small so M size fits me well (5'4" ~120lbs).

Does not fit like the Windwall I
I ordered the same size as my beloved Windwall I jacket. The mid section was too tight to zip and the sleeves are approximately 3 inches longer. I was really hoping the fit would be the same, as I really wanted the thicker fabric and the hood. I am returning this jacket today.

i really like this jacket. it is very comfortable, warm, and soft. the only problem with it is that i feel it is too short. the hood is a good size, along with the arm length, but if the torso was longer it would be perfect.

This jacket is not as warm as I expected. It is overall a pretty stiff jacket. For a fleece, I would have expected it to be more flexible. On the other hand, it looks great and fits better than any other NF.

nice jacket, but small
I own several TNF jackets, in XS and S (5'2'' and 125lbs). I bought this in a S cause I heard it runs small, but even the small fits smaller than the others and is a little tight through the shoulders. It looks nice, is light weight but warm and is mostly windproof, so I kept it, but I probably need a M! Nice addition to the rest of my North Face collection!

Great
Very comfortable and warm. I would definitely recommend it to anyone living in the cold.
I am petite and got an xs and it fit perfectly. The only problem is the arm was a little too long so I rolled it up.

Great Mid-weight Jacket
I bought this jacket 3 weeks ago, and I think I have worn it every day since then. Great for the cool spring & fall weather in the Northwest. It's very warm for its weight, and I definitely notice the wind protection.
I would have given this jacket a 5/5 if it was just a little longer. I am 5'10" and 150 lbs, with a long torso, and my shirts usually poke out the bottom of my Windwall 2, but it's still long enough to stay comfy. That being said, the Medium had sleeves that were still plenty long for me - one of the reasons I love The North Face so much!
There is some discussion in these reviews about this jacket running small. I think that you need to think about the ways you would wear it to determine the size you need. I am usually a Medium in North Face jackets, and I stayed with that size in this case. I can wear it over a long sleeved shirt and maybe a lightweight fleece, but I can't fit more layers underneath my Medium. But, this size gives me a nice form-fitting shape (it is much more form fitting than in the picture). If I had gone with the Large I know I could wear it over more layers, but I doubt it would give me that same shape.
I hope this helps!

awesome jacket
Bought this jacket for my daughter, she loves the way it looks and fit. Just like all the other northface I've purchased you cant beat the quality and price.

very cool ever
It's really recommended, very cool when you wear it. I like the fit but the arm sleeve is too long for me. the quality is very good. it's really protected from the wind.

Slim fit works well
If you are looking for a warm layer for changeable weather this jacket is great. It fits well under a light waterproof layer to take you through whatever comes on long hikes.

Great jacket, weird fit
i really like this jacket - it's warm and super cute. However, it is true that the fit is a bit weird. For me, the longer-than-normal arms are great, but the shoulders are super tight. I have broad shoulders but don't usually have this problem with other brands. I decided to keep the jacket anyway because it's really so cute and warm.
March 28, 2011
Returned it
This jacket is made out of really good material and within seconds of putting it on I was gloriously warm. But - like some other reviewers mentioned - it's really short in the torso with long arms. I didn't mind the arms so much but the short cut in the torso made it look really awkward when worn with my jeans (especially the low rise ones). I should mention that I am short (5'4") and in theory I shouldn't mind a jacket with a short torso - but it's just *really* short. Also it's not really comfortable to wear because of the rigidness of the outside wind-proof layer. I have another Northface fleece jacket that is really soft and comfortable so I thought it would be similar so I guess I was just surprised at the material. Just not for me - your mileage may vary.

Great jacket, just small in size
I loved this jacket when it was delivered but it ran rather small. I was hoping it would fit similar to my Denali but it is MUCH smaller in size. I ended up giving it to my daughter and she wears it all the time.
March 12, 2011
Great fit, high quality
I typically wear a small (I have a small NF Venture raincoat), but the medium Windwall fits perfectly. This jacket is very fitted and flattering. The sleeves are a bit long, but the elastic at the wrist helps keeps them in place. I usually layer two fleeces, but the Windwall is all I need now- would definitely recommend!
March 10, 2011
Awesome Jacket
I've always been a NorthFace jacket fan and have worn the Denali in many different colors. I recently purchased the Windwall Fenix 2 for women and absolutely love this jacket. The inside is so warm and cozy and the fit is perfect. I will buy this jacket in another color very soon.
March 10, 2011
Great buy!
I really like this jacket. It does run small though. If you wear a medium in the Denali I would get a large in this. It is very warm and almost feels like a sweatshirt on!
March 10, 2011
Good Purchase
Very comfortable jacket. It feels a little snug in the waist area so layering up is not an option. The arms are a little bit long for me but I am petite so that could be why. Otherwise, it is a comfortable jacket that keeps me warm when the wind cold air is swirling. I recommend this jacket to others.
March 9, 2011
nice jacket
Love my new jacket, but wish it was not cut so small. I have a denali in the same size and it fits much bigger than this jacket. There is no way I could wear the size I ordered over a sweatshirt, but is fine over a tee or long sleeve.
March 9, 2011
Nice but stiff
This jacket is a very durable one and in 30 degree weather, I was fine with a tanktop and this jacket. The jacket is very warm and protects you completely from the wind, but it is a bit stiff. It's not comfortable like a pullover or zip up hoodie, and it's a bit short on my long torso. Other than that, this jacket is a good one if you don't mind the stiffness.
March 9, 2011
Fits Small
Love the coat but fits very small, order a size up. Seems very warm. I just received my Small but I am returning it and ordering a medium. Love the feel of the coat & looks way better than the Denali coat everyone has.
March 4, 2011
The jacket was great quality wise, but I am disappointed with the fit. North Face sizing varies greatly from jacket to jacket (which I guess I should have known) but I own other jackets in a L that fit a bit big, so I expected to XL in this jacket to be perfect, which it was far from. Just overall too small. Bummer.
February 28, 2011
Best Purchase
Jacket fit very well as describe. True wind breaker. Very warm and light weight. Use as daily jacket between fall and winter. Material is very durable. Hightly recommended.
February 25, 2011
Great Jacket
The fit is great. Style is classic which will go with most outfits. Fleece is heavyweight durable fleece that will stand up against harsh Ohio wind and extreme temperatures. Highly recommended!
February 25, 2011
Great product and very comfortable and warm would recommend this product and company to friends. My daughter loves her jacket and wears it every where without wearing a heavy sweater or sweat shirt under it.
January 25, 2011
Windwall
Great jacket overall-- much warmer than the typical North Face fleeces. Good wind protection, and the hood adds extra warmth.
January 9, 2011
Great alternative to Denali
Bought this for our daughter as a replacement for her 5 yr old Denali. She wanted one with a hood and considered both this and the Denali hoodie. She reports that this jacket has a more flattering fit (is more fitted) than the Denali and feels warmer, perhaps due to its windproof quality and its more snug fit. The Medium fits her perfectly - she is 5'4" 120 lbs. She also likes that while all of her college friends seem to have a Denali, she hasn't seen this one on campus yet (and it is much cheaper!). Would definitely recommend.
January 2, 2011
perfect!
I can't stand wearing bulky, hot and uncomfortable coats that make my chin itch in the worst way! I was trying to find something light weight without freezing. I own other north face products, this one is the best. It keeps you warm and you manage to comfortable. The material is soft, yet very thin. I love this product! The hood is also very helpful and I am so glad they added it! Plenty of pockets, they do not get in the way and are in useful locations. I am short, so the sleeves are a tiny bit too long, but I just fold them in a tad and it works!
January 1, 2011
just right
I ordered this jacket for my 24 year old niece. She is very tall, with long arms. The arm length on jackets can often be a problem, but with this jacket the length for the body and the arms were perfect. We had snow on Christmas Day, she left my house wearing her new jacket. She called later that night and said her jacket is warm and comfortable.

TNF Windwall II- Women's
As usual TNF delivers! I love this jacket, I have a Windwall I and now a Windwall II, they are both great quality. the only difference btwn the two is the hood. Its warm, durable, stylish and cuts the wind on my morning workouts. I usually wear a small or extra small in this brand but bought a medium for it to be comfortable with layers(it runs a little small). Overall a great jacket and I hope all you ladies out there consider this jacket, you won't be displeased.
December 27, 2010
Great quality, nice design. More of a tailored fit. Blocks wind nicely and is durable fabric.
December 19, 2010
Wear it every where!
I would recommend this jacket to everyone. I wear it every where. Very comfortable, the red is a different shade of red but I really ended up liking it. Its warm I wore it in 20 degree weather in Wisconsin and I wear it every day in Colorado weather. Overall I would buy another one!
November 30, 2010
Love this jacket. I have several TNF Jackets. I wanted a windproof fleece and didn't love the fit of the APEX Jacket so decided on this one instead. It's a tighter fit than the Denali Jacket, but I like it. The material is very soft and warm, and completely windproof! It's a very cute jacket too!
November 12, 2010
great company and product
I was very please with this company....fast shipping and great costumer service. This is a great jacket and would be very warm and cozy. Nice flattering shape but I agree with other reviews that said the shoulders are a little baggy. I unfortunately will be returning my Bordeaux Red jacket because it is not the color I expected (more of a purple then red). I will be placing another order for a different color:) Great site and company, great prices and free shipping...what more can you ask for!
I will be giving this company my business for future orders:)

Buy this jacket!
I live in Florida, and I have bought dozens of jackets for myself and family from Altrec over the past four years. Each purchase was expeditiously and accurately handled. I love this Windwall jacket! It is lightweight, yet it totally blocks the wind & keeps me warm. The fit is comfortable, and the jacket has some styling to it. Easy to pack for travel. I have bought it as a gift for three other people who all love it, too.

good quality / weird fit
This is a nice jacket but the fit was really weird... snug around the hips and arms but baggy in the shoulders. Not at all comfortable and there was no way to make it work for me. I returned it. A shame. The orchid color is beautiful.

I like this jacket very much and I wear it everyday. I live in Arizona, and you can just wear a T-shirt as layering, it is warming enough in this winter.

awesome fit and super comfortable!
I've been looking for a fleece that's not bulky. I don't really like fleece with pile that is too thick and cushy as it looks quite bulky under more layers. This Windwall 2 is the newer version and the cut is much more flattering. It isn't bulky at all, and the waffle-like interior is very comfortable

Not Impressed
I usually buy Small jackets, but after reading reviews saying this one was a bit roomy, I went for the XS. Unfortunately the fit of this jacket is so odd that I don't see any size fitting me right - unless I wear hockey or football pads underneath it. I am 5'2" about 115 lbs, and the shoulders & chest of the jacket were humongous on me! Simultaneously, it was too short for my liking (barely covering the belt loops on my pants). Also, the sleeves are tapered, making the cuffs so small that the wide upper portion of the sleeve can't fall naturally - which puffs them up even more around my shoulders! As far as the material & function of the jacket are concerned, it looks well-made, and felt quite warm. I like the outer layer of jackets to be more smooth, but this one has a fleece-like softness. I will be returning this for a more flattering, longer length jacket.

Great spring/fall in MN jacket
This is my second Windwall 2 jacket. I was bummed when I forgot my last one in a Honduran taxi - so I had to replace it! Warm, comfortable and you can stuff it into a small bag and take it anywhere.

This is a great jacket
I bought 1 for me, one for my teenage daughter. It is soft enough for wearing around a chilly office or casual wear--not heavy, but warm. The hood covers well. It is a roomy but not boxy fit, and layers well. very versatile--I'll wear it under a shell for skiing. we live in wyoming with lots of wind-this is a perfect all-season garment.

Great Hoodie
The texture of the hoodie is like fleece, but not thick, though still soft. I love the light blue color. The fit is great, a little less form-fitting, but still looks good.
