Layering with North Face Fleece
Fleece has several unique properties that make it ideal worn on its own or as a layering piece. Compared to cotton or wool, fleece dries quicker, provides greater warmth at less weight, and is very breathable. To make it easier for you to layer our fleece garments, The North Face has developed a zip-in system where our outerwear jackets have a separate zipper inside, letting you join your outer jacket and fleece. The Denali jacket is zip in compatible.

LOVE IT!!!!

Rating:*****

I had wanted a Denali jacket for years & finally got one this Winter. I also bought one for my husband & almost 4 year old daughter. We all LOVE them & will never own anything but our Denalis! As for this specific one (the girls thermal), it is awesome! We got the pink lemonade color, and it is adorable! I didn't think I would like the "fluffy" look of the thermal one (my daughter's previous one & mine & my husband's are both fleece), but I saw the thermal in this color & HAD to have it. For a child, this jacket is great because it is warm but very lightweight, not big & bulky! They may be expensive, but they are totally worth it! You will not regret this purchase!

"definitley worth it"

Rating:*****
i have always thought these things were over-rated until i bought this fleece on wicked sale at MJ last summer. it's extremely comfortable and freaking warm. i like to layer it with a shell and it's pretty much good through at least december in michigan, which is saying something. it's a girls XL and i am a 5 foot 4 gal/130 lbs and it fits perfect. go for the kids clothes if you can, ladies, because they're cheaper and you don't have to sacrifice the fit. also, i get tons of compliments on it because it's the fuzzy one and not the normal fleece. it's kind of annoying because it gets fuzz balls sometimes, but that is easily taken care of with a little patience.

"Everyone needs this jacket."

Rating:*****
I ordered this jacket in a kids' large in black, and I love it. I am an adult female on the small side. The sleeves are just long enough, so if you have long arms, order the extra large or adults' size. I did this to be cheap. Plus I didn't tell my husband that I was ordering it. I still didn't get in trouble when he found out though:) It is freezing cold here right now, and I wear it as a sweatshirt and under my winter coat. Also, it is very soft and stylish. I have received lots of compliments. Thank you, Moosejaw. I absolutely love your site and go on it every day whether I need something or not.

"This jacket is amazing!"

Rating:*****
I bought this jacket for my wedding, which is at the end of October...being from Michigan the weather can range from nice sunny in the 60s to mid 30s. So I wanted to be prepared...and thought..the perfect accessory to my wedding dress....a white Northface fleece jacket. I looked around and found this thermal denali. I absolutely LOVE the fleece, it was soooo comfortable and warm. The even better news, I could fit into a girls XL!!! I am soooo excited to wear this on my wedding day...moreso than I am for the dress itself!!! It's perfect and sooo pretty!!! I'm sure it will be great in the pictures as well!!! And my order arrived 4 days after I placed it...fast shipping!!!

Excellent product and even better price!

Rating:*****
Anyone with teenagers knows they're always asking for something... and my daughter is no exception. She is very concerned with fashion and having the latest style. I indulge her when the price is right and the quality is worth the price. In this case, the quality is superior and the price is even better! The jacket is both fashionable, durable, and even practical (for our annual camping trips!) and will certainly outlast her style fluctuations. My younger daugther is already looking forward to the hand-me-down and I am certain the jacket will still look great for her! I will shop at Rock Creek again, but next time for the whole family! Thanks!

Wish I could have this in ever color

Rating:*****
I absolutely love north face jackets. I first purchased a regular denali jacket and loved it. Then I bought this jacket in black last year, and this year decided I loved it so much and got so much use out of it that I needed it in white. I can't even tell you how many people who compliment this jacket and who just want to touch it. It serously feels like you're wearing a baby blanket all the time. And it's much warmer than normal fleece. I would recommend this jacket to anyone thinking about purchasing it. In fact, you should probably buy it in at least two colors :)

"A helpful hint"

Rating:****
Hi, I had just recently bought the boy version of this jacket for 10 dollars cheaper. If you are buying the boy jacket for a girl, don't the girls jacket is more form- fitting and worth the extra money. Also don't pay for shipping. When we first bought the boy jacket we paid no shipping and it came in three days. For this jacket we paid the $7.95 shipping and it came in 5 days(though, one of those days were a Sunday) but the free shipping still came faster. It very light and fuzzy but keeps you really warm =]

These shoes are WONDERFUL!!! I am on my feet all day long. I have very flat feet and any other shoe I purchased would eventually make my knees hurt by the end of the day. I wear these shoes all day till I go to bed at night. My knees don't hurt anymore and neither do my feet. They are definitely worth the money for the quality you get. The mesh upper part is great because my feet get to breath and are not sweaty. I would recommend this shoe for anyone who has flat feet.

"BEST JACKET A GIRL COULD HAVE!"

Rating:*****
This is my favorite North Face jacket I own! (out of 4) I use it year round, at school in the Winter, as my main jacket in the Fall/Spring, and on those cool Summer nights in Wisconsin. Pros: 1. It is super soft and my friends always want to pet it 2. Year round jacket! 3. It's only starting to get a little worn out at the elbows, but that's pretty good for wearing it every day! 4. Very comfortable - Relaxed fit THANK YOU NORTH FACE/MOOSEJAW! I JUST ORDERED ANOTHER ONE WITH THE HOOD!
Karen at Moosejaw on 02/21/2009

"Very, very soft. Nice to cuddle up with."

Rating:*****
I bought this for my girlfriend. It is very soft to the touch. She wears it all the time and it is extremely warm. If you are looking for a soft, warm comfortable jacket, go with this one. If you are able to wear the girl's version instead of the women's...by all means buy the girls version...it's cheaper and fits the same. I bought the white denali thermal and it is very clean looking. The fit is spectacular on her and is very complimenting. Wear it in the winter and stay toasty warm!

Negative Reviews:

Lent everywhere

Rating:**
I purchased two of these jackets and they are great looking, but when you wear the jacket, the tops you are wearing are totally covered in black lent. We got the jackets for Christmas last year and they have ruined several tops because you cannot get this black lent off. I washed them and thought it would take care of it, but they still ruin all your clothes you wear. Really disappointed we can't wear these jackets any more because when you take them off, you are embarrassed because you are covered in black lent. Too bad, such a pretty jacket. I wish we could wear them, but they belong in the trash.

My girls think that they are warm, but was disappointed because the Northface logo came in looking like someone tried to take it off with a seam ripper.
