The North Face Men's Denali Jacket

Amanda McLean - 10/12/2002

Durable, definitely useful jacket for general use!
Great fleece jacket, high quality construction and fabric. Still looks like new after several years of hard use. Perfect for chilly, dry days or as a liner, but not great in wet or windy weather. I use mine for everyday wear, too. Fits well, looks good. Well worth the price!

Good but not great.
Pro: Quality construction. Right amount of pockets at the right places. Reinforcement on shoulders, elbows, and cuffs. Pit zippers. Adjustable hem w/ elastic cord. Good on non- windy/cold/dry days. Nice and warm worn under a shell. Looks good. Con: Expensive. Collar cut too small. Too roomy at the chest area. Terrible on windy/cold/wet days. Ideal Buyer: Anyone who loves name brand but does not spend too much time outdoors.

Hands down a great 3 season fleece jacket
I can't tell you how many different fleece coats I've had from different manufactures. This fleece is out of this world. I'm an avid backpacker / outdoor sporting enthusiast and really push my gear to its limits. The Denali took everything I threw at it. Very durable to the point of almost being indestructable. I love the underarm ventilation. You can go from feeling "as snug as a bug in a rug" to "where's that draft coming from" in two quick unzips. I also really appreciate the padding on the chest and elbows. When you are spending alot of time blowing on embers perched on your elbows, you soon realize what a plus this is. The only small almost insignificant drawback I have found (as is common in all fleece jackets) is the tendency for the fabric to pill or get clumpy. If you like this great! If you don't, simply throw it in the washer and out comes a brand new North Face Denali Jacket. I hope this helps

New Fleece Jacket is a new phenomenon
This jacket, often sold out in stores, has become a hot item among teens and mountaineers alike. All generations can now experience the warmth, hip style, and comfort that this jacket provides, available in a variety of colors, with the most popular being black, although I tend to like it in green.

For the cold and the windless
This fleece is great for cold conditons but is of little use in windy condtions. It lives up to its water-repellant name in misty or snowy conditions, but the 300 weight fleece is no less impermeable to wind than the 200 weight. The nylon reinforcements are great and the pockets are perfect. The pit zips top every thing off along with a drawcord hem. As with other North Face products, this fleece is also quite durable and lasts for many years.
