The North Face Women's TKA 100 Microvelour Glacier 1/4 Zip Shirt

Buy this great top!
May 17, 2012

I bought one of these about a year ago because I was looking for something warm and lightweight for all-around use. Since then I've bought three more. This top is warm, but not too warm, and stylish enough I can wear it to work. Or on a hike. Or out to dinner. Or just about anywhere. I wish the styling were just a tiny bit more fitted, but it's not sloppy, and the garment has princess seaming and a dropped rear hem that give it a much more feminine look than a lot of fleeces. In fact, the photo on Altrec's site doesn't do it justice. I am 5'6" about 125 pounds and wear the small. I suspect the extra small would give me the more fitted look I'd like, but then couldn't be layered and probably wouldn't be long enough.

Runs a little big/loose
May 02, 2012

I ordered this in a medium, the arms and shoulders fit nicely, but it was all loose and not fitted in the back. The fabric felt like a good quality and was durable. I sent this one back and ordered a small. It fit much better!

I love this fleece. I have it in 3 colors and can't wait to get more!! It's really warm and a great value from North Face. Great color selection too. Very durable, I get compliments on it all the time

Bought a second one
April 02, 2012

Very cozy and warm, love the light weight of it; I own two of these in different colors. Wish The North Face offered the exact same with full zipper and add some cool to the design. But as a basic piece for cold weather is ideal.

Cozy and Warm
March 14, 2012

I owned one of these from 2007 and I love it. This one seems to be made with a little less quality material but it still a winner. It is light, warm, and comfortable.

Great Product
March 11, 2012

I would absolutely recommend this product. If you're familiar with the old TKA 100 1/4 Zip Microfleece, the fit on this is a little looser and longer. I'm 5'8" 145lbs and the Small fits very comfortably. It's very lightweight and warm. I will definitely be purchasing in more colors.

Favorite Fleece Shirt
February 16, 2012

I am 5'8" around 150 lbs and the medium fit true to size. I like the relaxed fit--not too tight, not too baggy, just right. I like the shirt so much I have purchased it in 3 different colors (red, navy, hominy yellow). I have used it mainly as a 2nd layer for alpine skiing but look forward to wearing it in cooler weather for trail running, and cycling. I think the 100 weight fleece offers a broader range of seasonal use either by itself or layering under a shell.

Versatile insulation piece
February 11, 2012

Our family has a couple of these. We use them to lounge around the house, as an aerobic outer layer on cool days, and as a light insulation layer on colder days. Cant really go wrong especially when they are discounted.

Best North Face for the price we have ever ordered
February 11, 2012

Great fit and soft too. Got my son one as well and he loved the grey color. Better fit than most fleece too! I would recommend to all ages, kids. Teens and adults. Great price and great product.

Received my order today and couldn't wait to put on my new items! I bought this in yellow and it is so pretty and warm! I'm 5' 3, 135 lbs, and the small fits perfectly. It will be great for walking outside in the spring and fall, although today, Feb 6, it's almost 60 degrees in upstate NY. Looks like I'll be able to wear it today!

Great product
January 30, 2012

Great product! I would order another one. It is warm and the color is very nice. I bought the yellow one. I bought the large for extra room. It washes very well to.

perfect one for cold weather!!!
January 23, 2012

I love the material, fit, and color. I'm 5'3", 104lb. Usually I wear XS for tops, so I got a XS as well for this. It was nice choice! fit very well and incredibly warm!. Im going to get another color again.

Great First Time Purchase
January 23, 2012

The top is warm and worth the money. This was the first time I ever ordered anything from this online company. The transaction went very smoothly. The shipment date was as planned and I receive the top quickly. I plan to place another order.

Love!
January 19, 2012

I bought a few in different colors. Absolutely love them! Wear them all the time with work out gear or just running around. Warm and comfortable. Will definitely buy again.

North Face TKA 100
January 17, 2012

I LOVE this micro fleece! I have several others but really wanted the bright red one. ALTREC has such a wide range of colors! I wear this top all winter long! It has a pretty, feminine fit and is not too thick but really keeps you warm and cozy! The color is exactly as it looks on the website. I am a fitness instructor so these tops are perfect over my workout tops until I am "warmed up". This is a staple in my winter wardrobe. I'm going to order the blue one too!

My wife loves these.
January 16, 2012

Wife wants a couple more. she's 5'2" 120lbs the fit is perfect. I didn't know that something so inexpensive and easy to buy would make her this happy.

Can't go wrong!
January 12, 2012

Why did I wait so long to order this Northface fleece? Now I want it in every color! 5'5"/approx. 130 lbs. Ordered the small and it fit very nicely/plenty of room at the top/ample room in the hip area.

Excellent all round
January 11, 2012

I'm a K-9 Search & Rescue K-9 Handler/Trainer in the Pacific Northwest. Fall through Spring, I live in fleece pullovers with various layers on top. I've tried various brands, but this is the best so far. I get lot's of vigorous activity--especially with my arms/upperbody, so having a great-fitting top is important. This top is lightweight but warm. Extremely soft--feels great next to the skin. Cut nicely fitted so it doesn't add bulk. Nice detail at neck hides/secures zipper--looks more attractive/finished than the standard 1/4 zip. Goes under other fleece and slim fitting jackets easily. Good length. I'm 5'7", 140lb, short-waisted, with long arms. Can tuck in or leave out. Arms are long enough. Gravity Purple, is a gorgeous true purple.

Awesome
January 04, 2012

I ordered the White Northface Zipshirt and fell in love with it. It provides comfort and warmth. The shirt looks great and even after washing. It runs a little smaller than average but overall feels and fits fantastic.

Softer and Slightly Larger
January 03, 2012

This year the style is a little longer, a little bigger in the arms and body, and still fitted, as compared to previous years. I normally take a medium in NF and it still looks fitted just a little roomier than before. The fabric is softer than in previous years, and it is still a fabulous layer, shirt, and lightweight substitute jacket in 45 degrees to about 65. Love the light weight which makes it fabulous for travel and the comfort. The grey is fabulous! I have this in black, heather green, blue, and I will have one in most colors eventually if I keep at it - it's a wardrobe must have!

a keeper... with hesitation
January 03, 2012

I purchased on of these for my sister first, finally this year I bought myself one. I got the small and I wished it fit a little better. I am 5'2" and 130#s, a little on the petite size. The arms are long, and it fits loose through the torso even with layering, and I am not small chested. I didn't see a petite or extra small, so I am keeping it because it is warm, and good quality, just wish it was a little more flattering.

Stylish and well made
January 01, 2012

Bought this for my wife as a holiday present. She loved it! Fit was excellent, looks stylish and smart. Also warm and comfortable to wear. She really enjoys it and has recommended it to her friends. Just the thing for cold, windy mid-west winters.

Barely long enough
December 29, 2011

I'm a tall woman (5'11"), which puts me at a disadvantage when it comes to cold weather attire. This shirt just squeaked by. I do love the color, and it's so-so for warmth. Keeping it anyway..

Wife loved this fleece
December 21, 2011

I bought the women's version of this fleece for my wife after having purchased one for myself earlier this year. I had mentioned to her how much I like this fleece pullover because it is not at all bulky but still keeps me remarkably warm without having to wear too many layers. I got the hint that she wanted one too so so I bought her two in her favorite colors. She likes this fleece as much as I do because it is soft (and not at all itchy), not bulky and keeps her nice and warm. Plus there is also a good variety of colors to choose from. There are now two fans of this fleece in our household.

Excellent product and service as always
December 18, 2011

I buy, on average, 5 of these for gifts each year as they are requested repeatedly. I decided to order one for myself and now I know why. They are warm, not bulky, comfortable, and yet stylish. It is a wise purchase. I am 5'5'' and weigh 125. I can wear either the small or medium. I like a little extra room, so the medium is my size of choice.

My Wife's Favorite
December 17, 2011

I bought a hoodie version for my wife and she had to have another. We got the 1/4 zip. It's light, stretchy, sturdy, warm, breathable and super soft. She's always cold in the winter so she wears her TNF around the house all the time. Now we're buying more as Xmas gifts for the extended family!

December 16, 2011

I love the 1/4 zip fleece shirts. They are warm, wash well and stay nice looking after many washes. My 3 daughters all love them and each gets one for Christmas every year. Great product.

Good Fleece
December 02, 2011

I really like this fleece. It's soft and warm, and comes in brilliant colors! For me the fit is a little weird. I'm 5'8 and 140lbs and ordered a medium. My hips are bigger than my top, so the flaring of the material at the bottom works great for me. But the armpits and chest seem a little baggy. A small would probably fit better, but I fear the arm length will be too short. So I'm keeping the medium. I figure it will be easier to layer underneath it, and I also mostly got for layering under my vests. Overall though, it's a good fleece.

Love it!!
November 14, 2011

I have one but will order more. I love ordering from Altrec. The pullover fits like stated. It is made of good soft fabric I also have the pants. I would really recommend this pull over to anyone

November 09, 2011

The shirt is very soft & comfy though I am a little disappointed with the fit. Seems "baggy" but not necessarily too big. Planning to wear it with a vest I think.

TKA Microvelour Glacier 1/4 Zip Shirt
November 03, 2011

I love this TKA Microvelour Glacier 1/4 Zip Shirt so much that I am well on my way to getting it in every color, Black, White and Red so far. I pull this on with everything from jeans to pajamas, it's warm and comfy and it makes me feel good after a long day.

Great Purchase
October 24, 2011

I love this fleece. It is fitted so it looks a little more feminine. The material is so soft and it does not shrink. However, I usually wear a small in North Face apparel and ended up with an x-small on this one. Love it!

Love it
October 21, 2011

Always love Northface product. This one is no exception either. It is very warm and the size fit well. It can be wear during the fall w/o jacket or in winter as a layer inside winter coat. I am very happy about the purchase.

Nice, but big
October 09, 2011

I received this in the mail yesterday. I ordered a Medium thinking it would be big enough to wear a layer underneath. Well, that is for sure, it is big enough to wear many layers underneath. I am going to have to return this item, however it is so nice that I am going to get it in a smaller size. The fleece is super soft and the shirt was very nice. I am looking forward to getting a smaller size!

can't live without my NorthFace fleece
October 04, 2011

This is the sixth one I have . I wear them all year . Lightweight and great for layering . Wash well and no piling. Lot's of colours this season. The cut has changed and the new one fits better on the shoulders

September 29, 2011

Great everyday fleece in winter, fits great under a heavy coat. Also, a great lightweight fleece for cool evenings in spring & summer! Long in the sleeves, but I have short arms.

August 24, 2011

This is the one that disappoints me among all items in my order. it is slim and looks poor quality, good color though, but maybe can only wear inside of a jacket to help to keep warm.

Super soft and fuzzy
August 17, 2011

I have a couple of these and they are so cozy. They layer well over a t-shirt and under a jacket. They are super soft and fuzzy and keep you comfortable--not too hot, not too cold. I've been wearing them for a couple of years and they are holding up great.

Fleece jacket
August 17, 2011

Wonderful, easy and warm. Looks good and cleans well. Wear this as a staple item because it fits well under a coat and provides me with that little extra bit of warmth that I tend to need.

Fits well
July 29, 2011

I have just received this product and, after trying it on, I am very happy with the way it fits and with the fact that it is not too bulky. I am 5'4" about 115lbs and purchased the extra small, which fits perfeclty.
