Classic-looking, The North Face Ice Jacket for men offers down-fill weather protection in a casual fit that is both waterproof and breathable. Have Ice, will fish. The North Face is typically associated with outerwear clothing and equipment for hiking, climbing and camping, but the 550-fill down insulated Ice Jacket is excellent for standing around waiting for the light rail. It's a big and burly waterproof design with a detachable faux fur hood and plenty of pockets on the outside for your extra gear. There's also two internal security pocket for stashing essentials, and for keeping your batteries warm while listening to the game on your radio (especially if you're sitting way up high in the breezy cheap seats). Everything is seam sealed so you don't have to hassle with water seeping in while you're enjoying yourself outside.
SUPER warm, comfortable jacket! WOW!
My search has ended to find the warmest winter coat. Fantastic price, fantastic quality.
The Ice Jacket by North Face...
I want to start out by saying that i am more than happy with my purchase. I wanted a coat that would keep me warm in the cold of the northern Ohio winters and so far it had surpassed my expectations. When wearing I can literally tell you that I have yet to be cold. It is amazing. It is a little pricey, but if you want a coat to protect you from the elements and don't mind spending the extra dough this is a wise investment. You wont need another coat for years to come. The fur on the hood zips on and off, which is nice because it can overwhelm your face. The hood itself is over sized which I Love. There are enough pockets to carry anything you may need (gloves,hat,ipod) they all fit. This is am amazing coat, and I dare the weather to be rough, because i have the coat i need to get through it. This coat is bulky, it isn't designed for tight spaces or crowed restaurants. But it does its job keeping me warm better than any coat i have ever owned. Hope this helps. If you are thinking about this coat and can afford it, BUY IT you wont be let down.
It's 3 degrees today in Chicago, and this coat is warm & classy
Everybody's right--this jacket is warm, it looks nice without a lot of junk on it, the fur comes off--my husband hated the idea--and it runs large. He normally would have gotten a large, but we listened to the reviews and got a size smaller. Broad shoulders/5'11"/175 pounds = medium. Buying through Altrec was very easy and it came right away. I think it looks nicer and less boxy than the picture.
Superb Jacket
By far the best jacket i have bought. I have been going out in 20 degree weather with only a T-shirt underneath and its been fine. The outer layer construction also seems very durable and wind proof.
Nice and Comfortable
My husband loves this jacket, it is a very nice and comfortable jacket, specially if you like to ski. It has big pockets so you can put all your stuff while in the slops. It is also a beautiful jacket to wear all winter long.
