"I had a Mountain Jacket from years ago that delammed. As a replacement they gave me the "new improved" Mountain Jacket with core vents.

What a piece of junk. If you are at all active core vents are garbage. They don't stay open at all. When I'm randonee skiing (climbing) I usually unzip the stupid thing as it's the only way to vent."

"I've always stayed dry and warm with this jacket (coupled with the bib pants), even in the most extreme conditions. Best jacket I've ever had.

Mine is the old design from the mid-'90s and it's cut short for a harness. This is much better than the others that are cut too long."

"Kick-ass product, which is what I've come to expect from TNF. Used the jacket on a Rainier summit in 2000 when I had to stand beside the ruts for 45 minutes while another climber was taken down to Disappointment Cleaver. The wind blew and the water bottles froze, but not me."

"High quality jacket. The Mountain jacket has a lightweight lining that the Mountain Light jacket does not. So in warmer temperatures wearing the jacket without any zip-in layers is comfortable. Having a "gore shell only" can be chilly when wearing alone."

"The North Face Mountain and Mountain Light

I have owned both coats for several years now and love them both. Both of these are well made products. Of course, these are the ones with the pit zips. I wouldn't have them any other way. I don't care for the core vent coats."

"I've had it for six years now, and it is the best jacket investment I've ever made. I remember those years in the past where I would buy some shitty jacket every year, just to replace it the next. Until I tossed down the big bucks for this. Now I'm always warm and dry. Buy it, you deserve it."

"Is everyone sick of TNF bashing? Ok, so they sell it at department stores and for some reason the hip hop crowd loves them, but hey if they want to pay alot of money to wear it around the city -- whatever. I have taken this coat in the White Mountains of NH many times."

"I have the same opinion of this jacket as with all other TNF gear. For around-town use, maybe mild weather, it is a pretty good jacket. But held up to the weather that it is made for, it fails badly. The seams leak water and I wonder if it is truly wind-proof as opposed to wind-resistant, since I rarely stay warm in it."

"I went to Galyans shopping for a new shell. The salesperson (at two different locations) told me they have had many quality control problems with the NF shells. He said they have a section in the stockroom with return defective items and it has a lot of NF shells, and none from Mountain Hardwear or Marmot."

"I got my jacket on a super low deal, and since then I have worn it everywhere--skiing, fooling around outside, going to freezing cold hockey rinks where I was wet and going to extremely cold mountain peaks. (-2 at the top with a wind chill that made it feel like -20) I only have a fleece zipped into it and it as toasty as a microwave."

"The greatest technical cold weather jacket I've ever owned! Combined with TNF Polartec liner (Denali) it is incredibly warm. I use the jacket primarily for skiing, and it works out just great. I especially love how waterproof and windproof the jacket is. I would definately recommend this piece of extreme-wear to anyone who wants to stay dry and warm!"

"This jacket is great. The first one I got I pulled a zipper tab off the jacket and sent it back to be fixed and I got a NEW one! With an apology letter saying that they made sure that the zipper tabs on the new jacket would not screwup, ever! Since then it's been to Grand Teton (in the summer and the winter twice) and many other Teton range climbs."
