Women's Northface

[Goofygirl17]

I'd like to get my 13 yo daughter a northface fleece jacket for Christmas. Any recommendations for where to get one for a good price? Any places that traditionally have sales or good prices?


Thanks!!

I actually just ordered a size Medium in black for my daughter about 30 minutes ago from Amazon. It was $74.99 with free shipping. I had $60 in gift cards saved up from Swagbucks, Bing, and Mpoints, so I paid a whopping $14.99 out of pocket. Not too bad! But, even without the gift cards, $74.99 is about the lowest I've ever seen. I had to play around with the sellers a bit to find that price, but I jumped on it as soon as I did. I also went thru ebates, which is offering 3% back on clothing right now.

6pm.com seems to have good prices on these jackets.

I found a couple of good sale prices at http://www.sunandski.com/

I'm not sure exactly when it falls, but Macy's has friends and family during December I think and you can get almost anything for 25% off. (Gosh I hope I got the percentage right. So sorry if it's less.)

Anyway, the discount works on north face so that's been a good way to get a deal on it for me.

north face keeps a fairly tight reign on discounts.
depending on the specific coat you get you may be able to find it at dick's sporting goods and i believe you can use the $10 off of $50+ or $15 off of $75+ on north face products.

most small retailers (like winter sports shops) don't seem to discount them. at least that was my experience.

i actually just bought one a couple weeks ago and i ended up buying directly from the north face website because dicks and other local retailers did not carry the specific one i wanted which was the "OSO". it has a hood which is the main reason i wanted that one over other ones.

if you're looking for the "OSITO" which tends to be the most popular one you can likely find it in a store.

i also want to warn you from my experience.
this brand runs SMALL!
i went through their little "sizing guide" and even put in that i like my coats a little loose (so i can wear a sweatshirt under them if i want) and it told me i should be an XL but because i wanted it loose to get an XXL.
let me tell you the XXL JUST fits.
i can get a sweatshirt on under it but you can see the sweatshirt seems through the coat its that fitted to my body.
i put my phone in my pocket and asked my mom to guess what was in my pocket and she could clearly tell it was my phone.

i do like the coat and took it for a "test drive" on sunday when it was about 35*F out by standing outside for 5 minutes in the evening while waiting for my friend to pick me up to go out to dinner and it did pass my test as i am generally a cold person and i was not cold standing outside wearing it.

i just wanted to warn you that you may want to size up.

I've read a lot of reviews where people said they got fakes on ebay and Amazon. I'd avoid those.

Check to see if you live near any of their outlet stores too. Many times they have things half price or even better deals there.

We have a North Face outlet by us that has great prices. Before it opened, I got mine at Macy's during Friends and Family. I bought a men's because it was cheaper than women's.

 

[Stacy's a freak]

Yes - beware of fakes. If you find a fantastic deal on price, beware. Northface controls the prices so if you find a GREAT deal it might be a fake.

type your search into Nextag. It will pull up retailers with NF at discounts. Typically these are last years' jackets, but I have bought from 6pm.com, klmountainshop.com, and another ski retailer, I think it was o2sports.com (?). Anyway, all reputable dealers, along with Moosejaw, and Backcountry.com. Oh, and I've gotten several coats at 30% off, because I never care if it's last year's model.

I second the outlet store if one is near. While in Maine, I went in one (wasn't a planned stop), and was delighted to have hit a sale. I got each boy one for Xmas for $40 each! Now, I didn't have a wide choice of colors, but that was fine with me

 

[Goofygirl17]

Thanks all! Time to do some research!

Definitely don't buy from a private seller, like those on Amazon. Chances are they're fake! Unless you don't care if it's authentic or not, which a lot of people don't. If you bought direct from Amazon, I think it would be okay. But if it's any of the marketplace sellers, look out.

 

[Immadismom]

I have purchased two from Amazon so far, with no problems at all. Both were Prime items, and I made sure to review the feedback. I'm sure there are fakes out there, but if you're careful, Amazon is still a great way to snag a deal. Especially when I was able to use gift cards I had earned to pay for them.

Marshalls had a few the other day. Some were fleece. They were $69.99- $99.99.
