The North Face Women's Khumbu Fleece Jacket

not bad at best
April 04, 2012

Jacket was wonderful for 1 month until it got washed. After following direction to a "T". It still pilled so I had to return it. It is warm and very comfortable. Sizing was a tad larger than normal in sleeves.

Great Produce
March 16, 2012

This is a great jacket from North Face. Fits true to size and washes up nicely. I love the zipper front and the warmth that the jacket provides. I would recommend for the entire family.

North Face Quality
March 06, 2012

As with most NF goods, this one does not disappoint. Color is a bit vibrant, but the great Altrec price more than makes up for any of these minor subjective issues.

Comfortable jacket
March 04, 2012

This jacket is true to size, very soft, and has a great fit. The zippered pockets are great for travel to keep items securely inside. Will be purchasing more colors!

My wife loves The North Face Khumbu Fleece Jacket.
February 25, 2012

I bought The North Face Khumbu Fleece jacket for my wife. And what can I say except that she loves wearing it. Since my wife is happy, I'm very happy :-) Therefore, this is an excellent product.

Great Buy runs larger than expected
February 24, 2012

I had been looking for a North Face jacket for a while and when I saw this deal I couldn't resist. I have the hooded fur vest but it fits snug so I figured I would order this fleece in an XL. The jacket is very warm but I could have used it in a size large. I am keeping the jacket because I can add layers underneath if needed. Great jacket to run to the mall and not have to lug a heavy coat.

Love It!
February 23, 2012

I purchased this Northface jacket and love it. Its stays in style year after year and still looks great after being washed. The color black goes with everything. It is extremely warm and the fit is just right. I am 5'8" and 130 pounds and ordered a small. I highly recommend it!

Love this jacket!!
February 22, 2012

I am extremely pleased with my purchase. I own several North Face jackets and each one is unique in their own way. I live in MI and have worn this jacket out several times during the winter and I have stayed warm.

Warm and Comfy
February 21, 2012

I bought a medium in Brunette Brown and it fits me rather large. I previously ordered The North Face Morningside jacket in a medium and it was tight in the chest area so I figured I at least needed medium in the Khumbu jacket as well. However, I probably would have liked a small better. I am 5'2, 120 lbs, wear a size 4 in jeans, if that helps. The Khumbu jacket is very soft and comfy, a good weight for weather in the 35-55 degree range. If it got much colder or windy outside, I'd want a more wind resistant one. The quality is excellent with nice solid zippers and pulls. The fleece is of fairly good quality but I think it is going to start pilling before I even wash it the first time. I bought my husband a TKA Echo Full Zip jacket and his fleece is more dense and of a higher quality with an almost velour-like feel to it. The Khumbu is more of an average fleece IMO. The price was good on sale for a North Face jacket so I still gave it a high rating. I would recommend it if you don't want a tight fitting jacket like some of the others. The Khumbu will give you more room in the chest, arms and hip areas. The logo on the chest and back is a nice touch too. Some might not want to show off a brand name but I think it gives you somewhat of an ego boost. When I see one on somebody else, I think, "Hey that's a North Face jacket, I wish I had one." Go ahead and order one if you have been thinking about it like I was. You won't be sorry. I plan on ordering another one soon in a different style like the Windwall Rampart Jacket. Happy Trails!

Great Purchase

I wanted a fleece jacket to wear under my NorthFace ski parka for that little extra warmth needed while walking on cold New England days. After reading other reviews, it sounded just like what I was looking for. I am 5 ft' 1" in height and weigh 107 lbs. I purchased the extra small and it fits great. It's not too bulky under my parka and still has room to move my arms comfortably. The best part is that when the weather gets warmer, I will have a great looking fleece jacket to wear with just a light shirt underneath.

Warm jacket for cool days
February 19, 2012

Got this jacket in the "Response Red" color as it was on sale & red is a color I like. The jacket is fairly form fitting--I got a medium and am 5'7" and weigh 148 lbs. If I weighed more, I would go with the large as it is snug across the hips. It has beautiful lines and looks tailored when it is zipped up. The jacket is nice and toasty--really great for cool days in San Diego County (yes--there are cool days and nights in CA!). The only thing I didn't like about this jacket is the placket behind the zipper that is suppose to keep the wind out. This jacket would be perfect if the placket color matched the jacket (bright red), but it is WHITE--and is a real contrast to the bright red. It detracts from the overall look of the jacket unless you keep the jacket full zipped up. I was puzzled as to why the jacket didn't come with laundering instructions. There was no tag inside the jacket or on the warranty card. This is a FYI for North Face, so they include instructions on their products so folks can properly care for them.

good purchase
February 15, 2012

I like the Northface design and it fits really nice. I was disappointed that it is 100% polyester. It's really the same material that columbia is made from and really it doesn't feel much different. I think you pay for a twice as much for design, colors and the Northface logo.

February 12, 2012

My daughter wanted a specific Northface jacket for her birthday. I found the exact one here for $30 cheaper. I ordered it and had it in less than a week. It came on the exact day that was said in the delivery email. This jacket is a good deal. Very warm. Fashionable. It does seem to run a little big in size. I was happy with my purchase, the price and the quickness of delivery.

Gr8 price for a gr8 jacket

I wanted a warm jacket to replace my winter jacket. I thought I needed a down jacket, but I was wrong. A better choice was the Kumbu North Face, light weight, but warm and versatile. It can be used during the winter and through the spring. It is just a real cozy jacket. The workmanship on the jacket is so good, you know it is not a knockoff and that it will last a long time. I want to give a shout out to Matt in Oregon for helping me with my password and finding the review page. All my interactions with the people from Altrec.om have been hlepful and honest. I can't wait until I want another product from them.

Great purchase
February 06, 2012

This is very soft and cozy. The fleece is good quality and doesn't pill. Very light weight but keeps the chill away. I am 5' and 130 lbs and ordered a medium. It fits perfectly fine. The sleeves are a bit long but still fine for me. The color I ordered is black but looks more charcoal gray. I am very satisfied with this jacket and will probably order another in a different color.

My daughter loves it!
February 03, 2012

This jacket was purchased for my 13 year old daughter. The jacket size was a small and it fits her perfectly. She wears it to school almost every day and she loves the jacket.

Great Fleece Jacket
February 01, 2012

Initially I didn't want to spend so much for a fleece, but I purchased this fleece and LOVE it. Very comfortable, stylish & warm. I wear it all the time!

a little short
February 01, 2012

I love the jacket, but i find that a lot of North Face jackets are a bit shorter on me (I'm 5'11 and 145 lbs.) as i have a longer torso. It is an attractive buy tho~

Love this fleece!!
January 25, 2012

Love the quality and feel of this jacket. Worth the money, fits like second skin, very comfortable and easy to wear. Quality of product far surpasses other vendors that manufacture the same type of fleece jacket.

Warm and cozy with a nice fit
January 15, 2012

I like that this jacket is made of beefier fleece, but still has a nice shape to it. It is very warm and the cut is just right...roomy enough to allow a layer or two underneath, but not boxy or bulky. It looks great on its own and works well under a jacket shell, too.

January 11, 2012

Bought this for my fashion conscious trendy 19 year old who would never wear 'gear' and she loves it. She's 5'9 135# and the medium was too big; small fits perfectly, shapely, sleeves are long enough.

Love this jacket!
January 02, 2012

The North Face Khumbu jacket is awesome! The length of the sleeves and body are very good. It runs very true to size and is wonderfully soft. It's made with a good quality fleece which adds to its warmth. I bought the white with grey sleeves which is a more expensive look but it was well worth the price. I definitely recommend this jacket.

Great for everyone...even picky teens!
January 02, 2012

I bought this for my daughter for Christmas and I bought the male version for my son. Being teenagers, they are very concerned about fashion. The jackets are nice, stylish, comfortable and well made. The fit is true to size.

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bought 3 of these jackets for Chritmas presents. They were for a daughter, granddaughter and grandson. They each loved their jackets. Great fit, comfortable and will be great for Alabama weather. Have suggested this jacket to many of our friends. Very well pleased with the purchase.

My 1st north face purchase
December 22, 2011

I am HOOKED! I love this jacket, it's warm and cozy. I already bought my second jacket, plus one for my hubby. Great products, worth the money. I bought it in the moonlight ivory because for whatever reason it was the only color in that style that was $25 cheaper... I don't mind the color, I would of gotten it in any color. Great score!!

Christmas Present
December 19, 2011

I had got my Grandmother this coat. She said she loves it! It's wonderful to wear in the fall and I would recommend this to anyone. I do have one myself too! I've had it for 3 years and it still looks brand new! I love this coat.

North Face Khumba jacket
December 02, 2011

The website was very easy to use. We were looking for a jacket that fit long but was still fitted and not too wide. This jacket fit a tall, slender girl very well. It is warm and the quality is excellent - it is a North Face! Because the color of the jacket is being discontinued, I was able to purchase it at a VERY reasonable price. It will last for years!

Great Jacket!!!!!
December 02, 2011

Great insert for NF shells. It is so soft and warm! Sizing appears to be consistent with other NF items. Purchased as a Christmas gift and sure that it will be a crowd pleaser. Don't hesitate to purchase, I think that it is nicer than my Denali jacket!

love this jacket
November 22, 2011

We purchased 4 of these jackets - 2 women and 2 mens. We have absolutely fallen in love with the flexibility and warmth of these jackets. We have worn them on the slopes and we have worn them for mountain hikes and on every occasion someone is saying wow!! what a buy for this high quality jacket. I am 5'4" and weigh 175 lbs. and I purchased the ladies XL and it is a perfect fit in every way. I even have room to wiggle around and not feel pressed. We all recommend the Rhumbu jacket, it has the same amount of fleece, (300) as the Denali and a much better buy, plus it will zip into other jacket components for an even warmer experience. You will not be disappointed in any way.

Love This Jacket
November 13, 2011

My Khumbu NorthFace jacket is best. This jacket keeps me warm when the wind is blowing and on the cold winter nights. When it is around 20 - 30 degrees, I am the warmest person out of all my friends. I would highly recommend this jacket.

The best fleece ever!!!
November 11, 2011

This is the second Khumbu fleece that I have bought - I love them because they fit so well - are stretchy and can fit tight instead of big and loose - they are warm and can be worn just by themselves with a t-shirt underneath - look really nice with slacks or jeans - I have wide shoulders and long arms and both the X-large and large can fit me - because they stretch to my body shape!!! Have had the first one for years and still looks just like it did when I bought it! It is not too light nor too heavy - perfect fleece weight!

November 11, 2011

runs a tad bit on small size ..very warm and comfy...would definitely recommend...wife loves this jacket..altrec is great place to buy from fash shipping and great prices!!!

Love the fleece!
November 08, 2011

I absolutely love this fleece. It keeps me warm as well as protects from the wind. I would definitely recommend this to all women, especially when it just starts to get cold...but I would probably wear it all winter because it works fine for me.

Khumbu Jacket
November 07, 2011

This was my first north face jacket, since then I've had a few other ones, i like this jacket but i definately like the Denali jacket better, it's warmer and i just like the overall design better but this is still a great jacket, don't get me wrong. It's also a lot more reasonable price wise than the denali.

AWESOME Fleece
November 03, 2011

I have bought several of these fleeces from Altrec . I LOVE them are great for the cold Wisconsin winters.They are Very true to size ,soft snuggle warm. I love the vibrant new colors they have and I will diffidently buy from Altrec again.

November 01, 2011

Bought this for my daughter and she loves it!! The fit was true to size. The jacket was warmer then expected from a fleece jacket. It was the only coat she used the whole winter and being from the midwest it can get pretty cold.

October 30, 2011

I ordered 2 jackets for Christmas presents. They arrived before the end of the week. I would LOVE to keep both for myself so I will more than likely be ordering another. The fit is great and the fleece is SO soft. Wonderful jacket for fall!

Great Purchase
October 27, 2011

I love this fleece jacket! It's perfect for fall weather and very comfortable. It is true to size, Im 5'10, 135 and the medium fits perfect with plenty of room to layer underneath. I have had issues with other north face fleeces and pilling, but this fleece has not. Im very happy with this purchase and will probably buy it in an another color.

Love Love LOVE
October 26, 2011

I bought this jacket on sale. Absolutely worth buying as a gift, for yourself, for anyone you know in need of a comfortable jacket to wear everyday. I will definitely buy this jacket for my friends!
