The North Face

Metropolis Jacket

Women's

I was initially hesitant in ordering the Metropolis, but when I received it all my doubts were thrown off the Northface (pun intended). The coat is like wearing a fluffy, cozy pillow. Another perk is that this down filled coat doesn't leave you looking like a blob, but it in fact accentuates your feminine features as it has a nice elastic touch on the back. I'm not sure about you, but I am definitely a person who at times needs all of my coats to have a hood, but then there are times when I get annoyed by my coat having a hood; with this coat it's a win-win situation because the hood is removable :) Previous reviews stated that the hood may easily detach, but I can vouch that this is not the case as the buttons do lock in the hood pretty tightly. Overall, I would recommend this product for it's warmth, functionality, and shape.

Light weight yet it keeps you really warm . Wore it for a hike and it is extremely comfortable and does not make you feel suffocated . Lovely color too . New favorite for spring and mild winters.

I would buy this coat again. Lightweight coat but it keeps me warm in Maryland. True to size. I am 5'7 228 got the XL and still have room to wear a hoodie underneath.

When the cold, bitter winds of Kansas blast across the flatlands, I zip up my Metropolis jacket and head outside, knowing I'll be warm within the wintry weather. The jacket's flattering style that carves out my curves makes me feel feminine while bundled up in layers. My neck is covered with the jacket's high collar, keeping the shivers away. The option of wrapping my head in a hood is an added bonus. My only concern is the lower quality of the pocket zippers, which seem thin and not able to stand up to long years of use. We shall see...
