Sub-freezing temperatures, bone-chilling winds and blizzards with 2 feet of visibility. Just another day in the life of The North Face Men's McMurdo Parka. This bad boy can handle brutal weather like a champ thanks to a durable, waterproof breathable 2-layer HyVent shell wrapped around heat retaining 550-fill goose down insulation. Seal out the frigid wind when you close up the Velcro cuffs and cinch up the drawcords at the waist and hem. This winter parka has a full zip front with a storm flap and is long enough to reach your upper thigh, but not so long that it impedes walking or shoveling snow. Three interior pockets offer secure storage for gloves, iPod and a place to keep your water bottle or a thermos. Seven exterior pockets can keep everything else and add to the classic, outdoorsy style. A removable hood is trimmed with detachable faux fur to complete the Antarctica-worthy package. You can have the warmth of a puffy down jacket and the weather protection of a winter coat with The North Face McMurdo Parka for men.

Very warm!
I'm 5-10. 175 lbs and ordered a large. Good thing I did. The outside material is very rugged. Very warm in the cold. Only drawback is the weight of the coat. It is a heavy jacket =(

Great Product !
As many people know, this particular product (especially black color) was sold out in almost every shop during last 2010 winter. This is probably the product providing both warmest warmth and lightest (yet have many different storage spaces) weight. I highly recommend this product to anyone for emerging severe winter as this provides water-proof protection, too. I liked this black color and that's why I bought this despite its non-saled price at that time.

Awesome looking parka!
I was looking for something what could withstand Chicago's winter. The North Face Mc'Murdo was my best choice after comparing to other brands and parkas. Shipping was quick. Parka looked like a champ. I've tried it and........I tought I'm going to "drown" in it :). The size was not even close to what I wear. This parka runs way to large. I'm 6'1", weigh 205, athletic build and my regular TNF size is XL. I had to return item and buy one size smaller which fits just great.

Perfect Parka
My husband and I have started to hit the slopes again after alomst 10 years. We bought other North Face jackets that allowed us to zip in our Denali's. He noticed there were a few cold spots so we began the hunt for a new jacket for him. We first bought the McMurdo in the Large according to the size chart but once it was delivered we coud fit both him and me in the jacket! I soon returned it and exchanged it for the Medium. Now he loves it, even thinks it might be too warm! Altrec was great on price, shipping and returning!

Go big or go home
Moving from the warmth of the SW US to the Northeast in the middle of winter put me in the position of buying the warmest, most versatile coat/jacket I could find. This is a big coat, covers your hips, and is super warm. It's wind and waterproof, and the hood is big and warm. The only knock is its big, and super warm which wouldn't work in milder temperatures. It is great for snow days, walking the city streets in sub 20 degree F temps, windy, snowy, and rainy climates. I think this coat is perfect for big guys, who are new to really cold/snowy winters.
