Lightweight yet Nice and Warm My daughter wanted this for school (didn't want anything bulky) and this jacket serves the purpose very nicely. We will probably buy another North Face in the future.

Perfect casual jacket. You never know what to expect when ordering online but this jacket was perfect. The material is super soft, the fit is flattering and just enough room to layer with a lightweight sweater or shirt. It is roomier than the Windwall 1 and not as form-fitting.

great lightweight jacket This jacket is great for cooler weather or for layering. The windproofing is really good too, it blocks almost all of it, making it much warmer than a standard fleece. It also fits very well. The only drawback is that it isn't as stretchy or fuzzy as a regular fleece, but I'm willing to give that up for extra warmth.

Great jacket! I love the plum color and the close fit of this jacket. When I put it on, the drafts mean nothing. We keep our house cool and it is also nice for outdoor weather around the PNW. I would recommend it for the city and for sports. The only little problem is that the sleeves are close-fitting, so when I want to take it off it is more work to pull my arms out.

The Perfect Jacket This jacket is the best! I walk every evening in a Southern California coastal environment (windy, damp, and cool) and this jacket is perfect year round! Although it is very light weight, it is effective at blocking the wind, it wicks away the sweat, and it keeps me warm! I wear it every night I walk.

lightweight and warm This jacket does a good job of keeping you warm. It cuts the wind. When zippered up the hood hugs your face, so wind can't get through. Jacket runs a little big, but this allows you to wear a sweater or something under it if you want to.

love this really like this; it flatters your form and is warm for really cold weather; yet not too warm when the weather is only cool.

Very Warm and lightweight! I bought this coat to wear to Alaska in late November. In 20 degree weather it was the only coat I needed. Much below that I did need an extra coat. For warmer climates this is all you will ever need.

Awesome Jacket I bought this jacket for my daughter and she wears it everywhere. It looks great and keeps her very warm with a thin layer underneath even in Missouri's nasty winter weather we've had this year.

You won't be disappointed in your purchase! I love, love, LOVE this jacket; in fact, I own two of them! It's nicely constructed, fits well, and the brushed fabric is soft. It feels a little "stiff" at first but softens after laundering. I especially like the cinch cord bottom and the longer-than-normal sleeve length. The jacket does NOT have a left vertical chest pocket as the description states, but does have a convenient and much-appreciated small zip pocket on the left sleeve which is perfect for cash or keycards. It's not too heavy to layer under a down jacket or vest when it's cold, and is my only jacket once the Minnesota winter temperature climbs into the mid 30's. The PERFECT jacket for windy spring days!

excellent by looking at this jacket you wouldn't think it would be so warm but it's very very warm for snow in the winter. And, the hood comes in handy

Overall great jacket for Spring and wind! Really love this jacket. The performance in the wind was great,almost totally blocked it out. The nap/fabric is shorter than my other North Face, and I like that difference. Also not as bulky as my other fleece, another plus!! Highly recommend it!!! :)

Stops wind in its tracks! Jacket it proportioned nicely for a woman, is the right length, not too baggy, not too form fitting. The hood is a wonderful addition and it keeps the wind off of my skin.

Simply Fabulous! Bought this jack a while ago for a while watching trip my friends and I were taking. I had a thin thermal underneath with this jacket on top. Boy, I was toasty on the boat! It absolutely did its job. I like it so much that I am also buying one for my mother.

Great spring jacket.. This jacket is so cute! It really is wind resistant. Arm length runs a little long but the the whole length of the jacket runs a little short... so you pick your size accordingly.

Recommended This jacket is warm without the bulkiness, the hood is a great asset. The only thing I would change is the bottom of the sleeve is a little tight. The color plum is beautiful on any skin tone.
