The North Face Women's Windwall 1 Jacket

First North Face Jacket
April 12, 2012

Love it. Very warm and blocks the wind well. Keeps me warm and that's a huge plus! I am always a little cold. :) I will purchase again from Altrec.com.

Wonderful Jacket
March 24, 2012

I love this jacket! The cut of the Windwall jacket is perfect, trim but comfortable. The fabric is soft to the touch and truly windproof. It is also pretty good at shedding light rain. Unlike softer fleece jackets, the Windwall maintains its shape really well, and so still looks really nice after many wearings.

Great Wind Protection!
March 15, 2012

I got a Windwall 1 jacket in medium - I'm 5'1" & 125 lbs with wide shoulders. Medium fits nicely everywhere except for the sleeves #too long on me since I'm short#. The TNF Black isn't really dark black but rather gray-ish. I originally thought of getting a Denali but my husband complained that his Denali doesn't have much wind protection #and no Wind Pro for women!#. I also tried Windwall 2 and Apex Bionic jackets before buying Windwall 1. Apex was too stiff for me and the collar hurt my chin! Windwall 2 didn't fit well somehow even though the only difference seemed to be the hood. I LOVE my Windwall 1 jacket which has the feel of a suaded fleece #sort of like soft moleskin#. It is quite windproof which is great for my daily errands in the city of Chicago. Not feeling the wind makes a great big difference in how you feel in colder temperatures! This jacket has been super useful as I wear it all year around in the 35-55 temperature range.

Great jacket! Very warm for the weight and fits true to size compared to other TNF jackets. The jacket blocks the wind well without being bulky and heavy or stiff compared to the Windwall 2.

My First North Face Product
January 15, 2012

For the past 7 years, I always wanted a North Face jacket. So, this past November I finally fulfilled my urge and brought this one since it's a well known for its' comfortableness and quality. I got a small and I love it, but it's a little big on me (the sleeves are a bit long on me, but they keep my wrists warm) since I'm 5'1 and weight 103 pounds. The best part is I get to wear a hoodie or sweater underneath for extra warmth. Altrec is one of the best websites I have ever purchased from. Delivered on time and good deals.

Easy Christmas Shopping
January 02, 2012

I bought one of these for each of my daughters (ages 19 and 27). They both loved it. The jacket fits true to size and it looks great on both of them. Delivery was quick. Thanks for making Christmas shopping so easy! I should add that I wouldn't mind having one for myself.

Love it!

This is a great "go to jacket" for those in-between days in Minnesota. The North Face is known for their durability and that is a must. I love the cut of this jacket--It is very flattering for a womans body. Not too "boxy".

Bought this coat for my grand-daughter age 12 she just loved it. Gave it to her for her birthday.Very nice coat warm and soft, color was very pretty and she really liked it. Grandmother

Great jacket
October 28, 2011

The jacket is just as described. It fits true to size and light weight. However it keeps you warm when the weather is chilly, because it blocks the wind. And it is also good for layering for deep winter. I love it so much! I would recommend it to everyone.

Warm and cute to wear
October 26, 2011

The fit is a little bit but will be fine under a sweater or heavy top. Planning to use it bicycling and will be fine with the consruction and the zippered sleeves. Love the bright pink color. Will recommend it.

Great fit and very warm
October 22, 2011

This jacket looks and feels great, very soft. I like the fact that it is not too long so it gives a nice flattering look. Thin and packs nicely and best of all very warm.

good buy
October 21, 2011

Great style with many color choices. Fits true to size, but can see why some people have trouble with sleeve length. Not too bulky and great for overtop of other layers.

Perfect Camping Jacket
October 07, 2011

I bought this jacket for my wife to use on our camping trip up in Big Sur, CA this past Spring and it was perfect for the environment. This can easily be layered up once the weather cools down, but was comfortable to wear the whole time. It does, in fact, do a great job at blocking a lot of the wind. She's prone to getting chilly often and she commented on what a great job it was doing of blocking out the wind. She uses this jacket all the time whenever the weather calls for it. A great buy!

On sale it's perfect!
September 26, 2011

Got the jacket on sale and i love it. Only issue with the jacket is that it runs a little big. Otherwise the jacket is comfortable and warm. I recommend it.

great jacket
September 21, 2011

Flexible jacket blocks the wind, which keeps the body temperature of the body properly, with locks and two side pockets (comfortable and adjustable to the size of each size), cutting patterns and textures, this line and optimal, for duration in time. soft tissue, and pleasant to touch your skin. (polyester)

Good Deal
September 15, 2011

Got the jacket on sale and like it. Only issue with the jacket is that it runs alittle short. Otherwise the jacket is comfortable and warm. I would definetly recommend it.

Not a good fit
September 15, 2011

I own a few North Face jackets (Apex Bionic) and just love the fit, feel, etc. so assumed that this one would fit the same. I am about 5'6" and 130 lbs and have worn a medium in the apex bionic so assumed that this one would fit the same. It was way too big though and the overall feel of coat wasn't comfortable. My plan was to possibly exchange for a small but I went to a local store to try the small Windwall on and it was too small. So I had to return the jacket and then purchased another apex bionic instead elsewhere. Not at all impressed with this jacket and would not recommend it. Shipping to me and back to Altrec got pretty expensive.

Great Jacket
September 06, 2011

I have a couple of these jackets. They are wonderful, warm and wind proof but lighter weight than some jackets. The fit is perfect for me, I am tall, 5'10". I usually wear a medium or large depending on the cut or sizing of clothes. I got a large and the fit is good. The sleeves are nice and long. I love this jacket.

warmth & comfort
September 06, 2011

okay so i started my search on north face but it was too expensive. wanted something affordable but still providing the same exact item. i did my search here and bought my coat. i have long arms but i'm 5'6" so i got a large which fits perfectly.but if you want to be warm and comfortable for any day its great. but this is not meant for rainy days.

Right Jacket
August 26, 2011

Bought this jacket for my wife & she really loves it. The jacket really fits her frame(5 ft. tall). Protects her during a morning walk around the block which sometimes cold & windy. Definitely the right jacket for fall & spring season.

very nice
August 23, 2011

very nice quality but short in the front. Otherwise the fit is very nice the arms are not too long. I ordered the deep pink and the color is so pretty.

Nice Jacket
July 27, 2011

I bought the purple color and enjoy wearing it. I'm 5'3" and it fits really well. I would recommend people to buy it because of the on sale price. You can't go wrong with it.

Great Deal!
June 27, 2011

This jacket is amazing. All Northfaces are but this is the best deal you can find on the internet for this jacket. Although the jacket is really snug and a little short. I am 5'5 and about 110 pounds and i thought it was pretty small. The bottom of the jacket only came to the top of my jeans. It is good for me, but it is small. My apex small is bigger than this small. I would recommend buying a size bigger than usual if you like your fleece's to be a little more roomy. You want to be able to move your arms so get a little bigger. But all in all Northfaces are the best around. They are the way to go and if you are thinking about getting one get it. This is as cheap as it will ever be! This is great quality. I am taking this northface to Europe with me for a year. So i think that says it is the best quality around.

Love this coat!
June 13, 2011

Great deal, great quality. I get so many compliments on this jacket. Buying Northface is always a win! Very happy with my purchase and the discounted price!

Great Jacket
June 01, 2011

This was definetely a warm jacket! Although I am 5' 2" I choose the small and had to return due to the jacket being too short. If the jacket were a little longer I most certainly would have not returned it.

Love lightweight fleece
May 14, 2011

Not to heavy. Versatile fleece. Keeps me plenty warm and cozy. Can be worn with an extra layer for added warmth or alone. Love to slip it on after hot yoga. Love the color. I did get a large due to the comments that it runs a bit smaller. I like the fit. I a 5' 4" and 150 lbs. Fit is very flattering.

love this jacket
April 29, 2011

Bought this as my first North Face jacket . I love the outside fleece it's very soft. I'm hoping when I wash it the fabric won't get balled up as much. It's light weight, but doesn't feel cheap! The wind breaker fabric feels sturdy even though I haven't tested it. I'm sure it works. I think it's worth the money even though it's a tad bit pricey. Only down fall is the inside. It's a little rough, but I'm sure if you're wearing this jacket you'd have a sweatshirt or long sleeve on underneath. But that's not a huge biggy. Pockets are nice too! Can't wait to wear it in the spring and fall. It tends to get chilly and really windy up here.

very stylish
April 26, 2011

Beautiful jacket. Fits well, and flatters my figure nicely. Keeps me warm without being too bulky. Its perfect for spring weather. After watching The Social Network, I knew I had to order one. I purchased the black/black and it looks exactly like the picture. This is a must have, you will not regret it.

nice for fall
April 11, 2011

I wear this alone, or layered with a fleece. Great for chilly fall days. Also it's great for travel, as it is lightweight and fits well in luggage. Love the fit of this.

Everyday Jacket
March 31, 2011

This is my first North Face jacket and I am very satisfied with it. It instantly became my favorite fleece jacket. It's lightweight and very comfortable. I got a lot of compliments from friends when wearing it. I used it most of the days when I do my morning walks. The fit is great, not bulky (I ordered medium size. I am 5'2" and 125 lbs.). Now I know why a lot of people prefer the North Face brand even if it is on the quite expensive side, GOOD QUALITY!

Great Jacket
March 28, 2011

The material has a high quality feel, and it does block wind very well for a material so thin and lightweight. I'm 5'4" and usually a size small and I found this fit true to size. The cuffs of the sleeves are elastic which helps to keep the warmth in. The zippers for the side pockets run high up the jacket - which is good for access, but I found let in a lot of cold air when you're walking on a windy day. As well, the mesh lining inside the pockets, though excellent for ventilation, provided no buffer against the draft. I found to keep warm I had to zip up the pockets and keep my hands in my jeans instead. The collar around the neck isn't very tall or fitted, so let in a lot of cold as well. To keep cozy on a windy walk, I would wear this either with a scarf and gloves or as an insulating layer under a windproof shell, and then it would be perfect.

Perfect buy for Michigan!!
March 17, 2011

This was my first purchase of a Northface jacket, and it was an excellent decision!! The jacket runs a little bigger than I was expecting but it worked out great because I was able to fit a hoodie underneath. I have no complaints about this jacket, infact I am getting ready to purchase another one. I really would recommend anyone to try this jacket!! I am very pleased!!

Great jacket !!!!
March 08, 2011

Great buy for the price!! This is one of my favorite north face jackets. I love that the jacket is light weight but so warm and wind proof. The only thing that would make this jacket better is if it were a little longer in length. I definitely recommend this jacket.

No Breeze
March 07, 2011

This jacket is the best ever on windy days. The material is stretchy enough to make the jacket very comfortable but definantly keeps the wind out. I also like the way the material holds it's shape after many days of wear.

Very versatile, warm jacket
March 06, 2011

Provides all the warm of a leather jacket with "thinness" of an insulated shirt. Can be worn alone in late winter/early spring or under a ski jacket during winter/extremely cold and/or windy days (I coordinated the color with a North Face Triclimate ski jacket I purchased). More often, I even wear the jacket in the house instead of putting on a sweater. Looks great and can be accessorized when going out or can be worn alone when running errands or going to the gym. Washes well, although I hang it to dry instead of putting it in the dryer. Only negative is that it's cut small (I'm very petite and ordered a small and it fits me with little excess room for bulky clothes) and is a little pricy, but in this case, you get a lot of quality for the price.

First North Face Purchased
March 03, 2011

This was my first North Face jacket that I bought for myself. I have gotten one for my husband long time ago and now I said I want one for myself. This jacket was really nice and good quality. The fleece was high quality, I already washed it and it still looks brand new. I am 5 feet tall and weigh 120 pounds, I got the small size and it was just right for me. The only thing is it's a little short in length if you want something that will cover your seat. It just fell right below the waist. But the neckline was perfect because if you zip it all up it covers your neck in the cold. I was actually debating between one with the hood or not, but this was keeping my neck warm and you won't need to wear a scarf. I would recommend this product and would love to buy other colors.

awesome
February 25, 2011

Received this product within 4 days of the order. The color was even better than I had expected. My family members have several North Face jackets and so far everyone has been happy with the the quality and fit of the brand. Yes, I would highly recommend this particular jacket.

February 22, 2011

I love this jacket! I have a lighter weight one and I wanted one that was a little heavier. I have worn it all winter. It's not bulky and fits really well. Would buy it again in another color!

February 22, 2011

Love the color and the fit of the jacket. I'm about 5'3" 110 lbs and the small fit perfectly. It doesn't get too cold here, so it's good for LA winters.

February 15, 2011

My roommate has a Windwall and I wanted a fleece that was less bulky than my Denali for warmer spring days, so I decided to try it. Her medium fits me well but I found that the medium I ordered was pretty snug. I always wear medium in jackets and my Denali is actually a boys XL because the women's small was too large. The jacket itself is awesome I just wish it fit better, so I will be reordering a large since Altrec doesn't do exchanges.
