Men's McMurdo 2 Parka

Comments about TheNorthFace Men's McMurdo 2 Parka:

This is my second McMurdo Parka and it doesn't disappoint! I bought the first McMurdo Parka about 10 years ago and have worn it for every winter since. It's still fully functional with no tears or zipper problems, it's 100% good aside from some natural wear on the sleaves. So I thought it was time for a replacement as I also could use some new colours. So I bought the sequel, the McMurdo 2, and I absolutely LOVE it! It's quite a bit lighter in weight and feel but just as warm and strong. I really love it and can't have the weather cold enough. It always keeps me dry and warm and it's the greatest feeling to head into to below freezing storms and feel like an explorer. I'm sticking with McMurdo for another 10 years, and I expect to never switch to anything else... Highly recommended!

Sizes are a good fit and I also find no problems with the hood or odd lengths. I'm a medium to large normally and bought this in medium as I expected a wintercoat to be a bit bigger compared to a sweatshirt. And the medium size is a great fit. I'd say they're a slightly bigger fit as a wintercoat should be in my opnion.

Happy customer from Denmark!

This coat is super warm and perfect for icy British urban winters. Stylish, well made, the coat oozes quality in terms of construction and design. Lots of practical pockets and I disagree with other posters complaining about the hood. It perfectly fits and sits properly on the head when you zip up the neck funnel.

Bought this coat for my 14 year old son as an early Christmas present. He is normal height and build and the small was perfect fit with a little room for expansion. Looks very stylish, the "it" jacket for the moment and extremely warm ( wears this to school with just a shirt underneath). Plenty of "safe" pockets for phones money etc . Purchased this on black Friday so a good discount to top it off. I have a number of warm coats including Parajumper and Ralf Lauren down jackets and this one from North face is definitely the warmest. My son is delighted with the purchase.

This is a truely all round fantastic jacket and I'd love to own one. Sadly however I have no idea who it's designed to fit. I am a bog standard Medium in pretty much every brand. However this jacket has a bizarre fitting. The medium fits perfectly around my arms, chest and shoulders but there's enough space around my middle to carry 2 full size pillows, using the middle draw strings simply makes the middle looked pulled and the bottom flare out ridiculously. The small fits perfectly around my middle but has a cling film fit around my arms and chest limiting movement to about 5-10 degrees. If you can find a size that's fits well done, it really is a brilliant jacket.

Perfect fit and top quality.

Bought this jacket a few months ago in preparation for winter, my main aim for it was as a city jacket, it's rainy, windy and cold here (Edinburgh, Scotland) so a combination of down and waterproofness sounds ideal!

Jacket is heavy, it's not an outdoors sports jacket but as a result it feels bombproof, very waterproof, very abrasion resistant. Warmth is good too, slightly below any of my down (puffy) style jackets, but more than enough here at freezing level with just a shirt on underneath.
It has all the makings of a superb day to day winter coat apart from the hood fit, this will be personal but there is very little adjustment, as a result I can't get it to stay up if windy, and if I do it keeps falling over my eyes. It needs at least one if not two more corded adjusters at the back to reduce the volume of the hood.

North Face, fix the hood and you will probably have the perfect urban winter coat for those of us in colder cities!

The perfect jacket - lovely and toasty warm and waterproof.

I selected 5 stars as I think 4 would be not fair.
Is surprisingly warm and waterproof. I use it quiet a lot in London while standing hours in the cold, it really keeps me well.
The only down side is the price, for a 550 fill down.
I think is quite a lot. but so far happy with it.

i am still waiting for the refund from my return. terrible experience all round. also the hood is ridiculous- no way to get the fur out of your face when up without folding over and exposing the buttons. I had the old one and it was way better avoid
