This is a fantastic jacket. I plan to get a few more for gifts. It's warm and fits extremely well. It's not scratchy. Cozy, great lining. I really love how its tailored and not bulky. The quality is great and it looks quite smart for a casual jacket. I'm usually an XS, sometimes a S. The XS fit perfectly. I'd say it runs a tad bit on the large side.

I wouldn't wear this jacket for skiing (agree it runs short). However, it's warm and stylish if you need a coat for wearing around town. I would imagine this would be quite practical for very cold city living (or a mountain town). This would be a terrific gift (assuming you aren't buying this for someone for technical use). All in all the North Face Furallure Jacket was a good purchase..!

I too am 5'2'' and ordered the XS - perfect fit. This jacket is really great -- super warm, compact and easy to pack. I traveled to Europe in the winter and it kept me very snug on cold days in London. I gave the Flash Jacket to my sister in law who absolutely loves it. This is definitely a score if you are looking for something well styled, functional, easy to pack and very warm.

This North Face fleece does the job. True, it's not a technical piece and it isn't terribly beautiful. And no, it's not an Arcteryx fleece. However, it's great for wearing around town, to work or for hanging out at the crag, an afternoon hike, etc. You pretty much get what you would expect with this fleece: warmth and ability to wear it often..

I really don't have much positive or negative to say about this North Face hoody. It's warm and comfortable but not terribly exciting. I ordered an XS and do find it to be quite snug (wearing something underneath it is tricky). If you are looking for something practical then this is a good bet - if you are looking for something exciting then I might keep looking.

I bought the North Face Nuptse Vest and then returned it. I prefer a vest that is a bit more tailored. It overwhelmed me a bit - I like less bulk. However, I think it would work for quite a number of people.. it was warm and the design was inoffensive. In general, I believe North Face product is accessible for most people...so if you don't mind a bit of bulk then you'll probably love this vest.

I ordered this North Face Skirt (in white) when I was pregnant because of the elastic waist. It worked great! Very cute and comfortable. It's a bit big for me now, but I am tempted to order it in a smaller size.

I have the El Cap Shirt in several colors and wear it climbing and skiing. It's a great layering piece or on it's own. I like that it's fitted and does not restrict movement. I have XS and it fits true to size -- order a size bigger if you prefer something less tailored.

I bought the Aurora Zip for my mother as a Christmas gift. I completely agree this is a classic fleece -- perfect by itself or as a layering piece. Definitely fitted and not too heavy. I agree it runs a bit small so order up a size if you are debating between two sizes. This is a great gift.

I bought this vest and returned it. It fit well and yes, was not bulky. However, I really didn't like the pattern. I was very happy that I could easily return the item. It did feel a bit tight on me (I am 5'2'' 115 pounds and ordered an XS).. so I wouldn't plan on much layering if you are close to my size and order an XS.

This is hands-down one of my favorite fleeces. I have it in White and Black. I particularly love the white one. It's tailored and very flattering. I've given this fleece as a gift many, many times and everyone loves it -- from my friends who actually do outdoor activities to those that just want to stay warm walking around town.

I'm super happy with these gloves. The North Face Denali Glove is my glove of choice for cold days and moderate winter hiking. They fit perfectly and keep my fingers toasty. I've had mine now for about 2 years and they are holding up quite nicely despite the fact that I don't take very good care of them. I completely agree they aren't too bulky so if you are looking for a functional glove then you'll be very pleased with these.

I purchased these for my father and really likes them - he said they are stylish (my Dad is in his 60s) and comfortable. He received the grey/black color which look really nice. I wonder if they run a bit big? He's typically a size 9 -- however, I sent him a 9.5 and they fit perfectly.

I ordered the sandal in tan and love the color -- they will be great with tons of stuff. I'm usually a 7-7.5 and the 7 fit great. Super cute for summer -- get them in a few colors.

Too cute.... I bought it in white and really love it... it's short and would be very cute with some flip flops... at the beach or just hanging out on a hot day. Fits true to size (I bought a Small and am 5' 2'' and 115 pounds)

They fit great and look good. You could wear them casual or for a bit nicer look. I'd definitely recommend them if you are looking for pair of longer shorts...

This is a very cute dress. However, I had to return it because the straps were too long (and not easily altered)-- in general, the top half of the dress doesn't work on someone small (I'm 5'2'')....

Love that these don't overpower my little face. Also, they seem light (but not super light) which should be good for longer runs. All in all I'm very happy with these....can't wait to try them out on a few more trail runs...

I liked the tank and agree with most of the other reviewers. However, I'm 5 '2'' and ordered a small.. I had to return it b/c it was very, very long on me. I agree it would be better for casual wear/exercise as opposed to something more intense (since it's cotton). Definitely nice quality.

What I love about this tank is that it comes up a bit higher on your chest... even with sunscreen I find I burn on my chest and I hate the idea of a freckled chest (or worst yet skin cancer). I like it has good support, doesn't cling to the stomach, keeps you cool and yet provides a little extra coverage on the chest.

I bought the small and am very happy with the fit -- it's exactly as described above. I'm particularly happy that it is snug yet not too tight under the arms. Perfect for keeping them apples in check when you are on a run....

and they perform really well... they have not caused me any issues... I love that they are comfortable, light weight, and dry easily. Definitely my favorite socks.

I bought these shoes because of the description that they were good for trails and road running-- I've tried them out on both and been quite pleased with the results. I'm not an avid runner... however, I am trying to train for a relay race.. and the shoes have performed well on all training runs.. these shoes give me the support (w/o being heavy) that I need.

I ordered this onesie with the Small Paul hoody and leggings. The onesie is great for layering and as Cool Papa says the skulls are super cute... I'd get the hoody and leggings to match.

I ordered the pink hoody for my 9 month old and absolutely love it. It's soft and super cute. Looks terrific with the Small Paul leggings and white onesie.

I bought a ton of Patagonia, Roxy and Small Paul baby clothing and this is one of my favorite things I bought. The color is great and the design is so sweet. I bought a 6 month size and it fits my 8 month old.

These pants are darling... lovely color and soft and cuddly. Easy to pull on and off... practical yet stylish.

Great t-shirt... cute design, soft cotton. Fits true to size. I highly suggest all the Patagonia baby clothes... very nice quality.

I have the Glacier/Smoke in S/M: Love the Goat. Love the color. Love the fit on my foot and the overall quality. Don't like the cuff (a bit too high for my taste).

I love all the Small Paul clothing for baby -- very fun pieces... I have the monogram onesie and julius hoody... the three pieces make for a very colorful, happy, comfy outfit. I get a ton of compliments when my little one is wearing her Small Paul. Fits true to size.
