Been wanting to purchase this fleece top for awhile now and so glad I finally did. Great quality, fantastic fit, super light and more importantly, it also does the job in keeping me warm. I also like the fact that it is also suitable as an inner layer. Two thumbs up and keen to purchase more in different colours.

Bought the small men's for 5'11 160 pounds slim build. Long sleeves which fits me perfect as i have longer arms. Great layering piece for colder weather and warm enough alone for fall weather. Very stylish with green colour with black contrast. Highly recommend.

I bought three of these warm jackets for the upcoming winter season for my three teenagers who are snowboarders. I was looking for an extra fleece layer that was:1) thin enough to fit under their winter coats during extreme cold on the mountain without being too bulky (they all wear Columbia Triclimate jackets).2) warm but breathable enough to be used as a stand-alone jacket in other sports.So far, it has been used during:a) an Ultimate Frisbee competition,b) mountain biking,c) cyclocross biking,d) mountain orienteering,e) running,The jacket is easy to wash and that was particularly important for me knowing it would get dirty by being used in different sports. I have other products from the Northface and they deliver.

With the colder months coming m, and me living in the Windy City, I needed a good hoodie for the fall and winter chill when walking my dog daily. Morning, noon, or night, or walks are great because my hoodie keeps me warm.The front pockets are great. Very large to fit any part of the every day carry. The zippers securing my keys and wallets add peace of mind when my boy dashes after a squirrel that was too close to resist.The color scheme looks great. I'm a sucker for the OD green/black combination, and this adds a little bit of personality over the regular black coat. I feel comfortable and confident wearing this hoodie to nod in comfort solidarity with all the other North Face consumers I see on the streets. An impeccable product, you can't go wrong purchasing.
I am 5ft11 and aprox 180lbs. I bought a large but it was mush too big. I replaced it with a medium and while there is still some good room within the jacket, its a better fit. Its not fitted by any means either so more for utility than fashion. The jacket is fairly light and is better suited for warmer days spring/fall days if used by itself or as a base layer under a coat on colder occasions. Time will tell is the thinner material is as resilient as some of my other thicker fleeces.
Fits true to size (38in chest size, 5'9" height, 170lbs). It's a 'regular fit' but still form fitting without being too tight or too loose.Sleeve and bottom lengths run slightly longer which is good for overall coverage. Ditto for the collar when fully zipped up.Elasticized sleeve cuffs are loose fitting, which would be an issue if the sleeve length was too short, but in this case works out well because it allows one to take advantage of pulling the sleeve over one's hand for additional coverage and warmth.This is a lightweight fleece, under 300g in weight, very soft , almost 'second skin' feel to it.I plan to use it as part of my layering system for bike packing (base layer/jacket/outer shell) where being able to swap each layer out depending on the weather is ... MoreFits true to size (38in chest size, 5'9" height, 170lbs).

(By itself, the jacket is not warm enough for late fall/winter use)Compressibility is important too, I plan to be able to put this jacket in a compression sack to reduce bulk if I store it on my bike.Overall, a versatile piece of kit for my gear setup!
I love a lot about it. It’s light, thin, warm for its weight very breathable and ph so soft. I really needed this to be a layering piece, unfortunately the forearm sleeves are just too bulky for this purpose. It’s really strange, it’s so light and thin but just too much extra fabric in the forearms. If you are going to wear it as a stand-alone piece or wear it under a more baggy outer layer it will be just fine. If it’s to wear around work or home you’ll probably love it.
When I received and touched this jacket, I was a bit disappointed because this fleece jacket is super thin. However, after I put it up for 1hr, I noticed my hands were getting warm. It does keep the heat inside the jacket somehow and made me warmer. I would say this jacket would be good for spring/autumn or it can also be the inner layer for a cold winter, but it is probably not suitable as a single jacket for all under a cold windy weather outdoors.
Nice looking and a lightweight fleece that is a great balance between being covered up but not too hot. Unfortunately the top of the zipper is exposed and scratches your neck and face. Really annoying and uncomfortable. If they would have folded the fabric over at the top (zipper garage?) so that it doesn't scratch, it would have been perfect. I had to return it. Bummed!
i usually get size M for north face shirts, they fit me perfect, like a fitted style. but this one is different, it fits more like loose. the material is soft but it's sticky to your under shirt, and also very hot. i started to sweat while wearing it under my jacket. doesnt seem to be very breathable. if you're looking for a fitted style jacket, i wouldn't recommend this product.
Designed for performance, the TNF TKA Glacier men's fleece full-zip jacket features a lightweight Thermal Kinetic Advancement (TKA) microfleece with a plush finish providing enhanced warmth. This fabric is both durable and resistant to pilling. Soft, comfortable, easy to pack, this thermal layer will help you feel and look good on the push to the summit. This garment can be worn alone or as a mid layer in a layering system providing comfort and warmth enabling you to regulate your body temperature by wicking moisture away during your outdoor activities. This onion layering system is made of three types of clothing. The first layer, worn next-to-skin will provide warmth and quickly move moisture away from your skin. Then, the second layer, is the insulation or fleece, that provides warmth while also dissipating heat during periods of high output. And finally, the third layer, the shell, which is the most weather-protective layer, worn on the outside of all other layers.
