Give your girl The North Face Metropolis Down Parka for those face-freezing, it’s-so-cold-it-hurts days this winter. The North Face stuffed this jacket with 550-fill down to keep her toasty while she waits for the school bus, while the zippered hand-warmer pockets offer her digits some extra protection against Jack Frost’s biting breath. The removable hood prevents the blustery wind from chilling her to the bone, and the knee length shields her legs against the elements.

The North Face

Covering girls head to knee, this 550 fill down-insulated parka is a classic, stylish choice for cold excursions. Feminine-style quilting throughout creates flattering fit, with slight drop tail on back for added coverage. On blue bird days, simply remove the insulated hood for less coverage.

Features:

  • Classic, stylish look delivers thermal, head-to-toe warmth
  • Removable, insulated hood
  • Snap and zip center front closure
  • Zip handwarmer pockets

Comfort, Warmth, and Quality ---GREAT PARKA!

Rating:*****
I bought this parka for my daughter because she had lots of jackets that were nice and warm, but she complained about her thighs feeling cold. Prior to finding this parka, we tried several and while I had no doubt they would keep her warm they were too bulky and made movement rather uncomfortable for her. I have this parka in women's size, so I thought if love my parka so will she, so I bought her the same parka in junior's size and she adores it! Plus all her friends love it too as it is a 'cool' parka and I no longer have to worry that she's cold. I also love that it's machine washable and that the hood detaches. The only complaint I have is that this parka does not have the same heavy duty zipper that my parka (which is identical to hers) has.

Best coat ever!

Rating:*****
I bought last year's version of this coat and would have to think they made it even better, if that is possible. Mine is so warm and fits perfectly!! Not looking forward to cold Michigan winters but very happy to have this coat to keep me warm. Also, it fits perfectly. I typically wear a women's XS or a 0/2 but find North Face's girls XL to be perfect for my 5'1" frame. Finally something that is not too long in the body or sleeve.

Another Great North Face Product!

Rating:*****
This is another fantastic North Face product! It is super light-weight and very warm, which helps fight the Chicago winters. I am 5'5 / 135lbs, and the Girl's XL fits great. I even have room for a bulky sweater under it. I have to admit the material is a little shinnier that I would have liked and the hood is rather thin so if blows off easily. Other than that, it's well worth the money!

Almost Perfect

Rating:****
I live in Northern Colorado and I love my new coat. I love everything about it except the hood which is thin and doesn't have any down in it. I'm an overweight short woman who can fit into the xl. It is a perfect fit for me.

Beautiful style and good insulated Parka

Rating:*****
I bought this coat to my sister because she walks five blocks to school every day. She told me that it's a very nice coat, it's warm and light weight. She can fight the cold weather with it in Chicago. Thank you Altrec.

Beautiful Parka

I am very pleased w/this purchase. My "girls" are 19, but 5'2, 120 lbs. Purchased two Child's XL. The material is so soft, and will be warm for their winter treks in college! Two day shipping arrived in 36 hours!

Decent fit for a petite lady, not warm as the ladies' version though

Rating:***
I have to say, the brown color is simply gorgeous. I am 5'2, 110 lbs, and the XL size has plenty of room for bulky sweaters underneath. However, the L size might look a little less frumpy. I just wish it were 700 fill like the ladies' version.
