The North Face Mens Mcmurdo Hooded Heavy Parka Coat

I was in need of a new parka for very cold weather use as the previous one I used and loved for years was finally starting to fall apart. After quite a bit of research and consideration, I landed on the McMurdo as the one that fit my needs and wants and I was able to get a relatively good price. So far I have not been disappointed. It fits really well and feels accurate to size, with enough flexibility and space to add layers if needed. It also has a lot of pockets and storage. One of the features that I didn't know initially until I received it was the plush lined side pockets in addition to the zipper pockets visible on the front. Overall it is easily worth the price and I would consider it among the top three parkas in it's price range that would have to recommend.

I run between sizes Xl and L - I bought the XL for extra room to layer and it was too much. Exchanged for Large and works fine though a little closer fitting it still has room for layers and is not as open as it lacks a hem or waist bungee adjustment. Warm enough for Minnesota winter even if you still usually need layers for sub zero days. Good coat overall. Hood ruff is a little annoying as it snaps on and leaves gaps where wind tunnels right into your face
