Review Summary

Rated 3 out of 5

No cinch cord at hem

Windwall is good. Plain black with simple line is a bit more dressy for travel. Good fit for 6'2" slim male, But, wait, the hemline cinch cord is not included as claimed. Major fail as that keeps warmth in when breezy. It is such a simple thing that used to be standard. TNF you used to do better.

Runs a bit big

Bought the XL. I'm 6'3", 240lbs and it's just a touch big around the middle. The length is perfect.

Just doesn't' fit right, keep trying new ones

The Northface fleece Apex vest has always been my go to but this Bionic 3 version just doesn't fit right, it's very tight around the chest, I have older versions that fit great and comfortably. I normally wear a small but am going to try a Medium which will be too big but hopefully not tight around the chest. Really with TNF would figure this out, I've emailed CS but gotten nowhere.

Returned due to cut.

Returned. Material felt nice, but the cut didn't fit me- too big at the waist and small in the shoulders.

Worth every penny

I use this vest for morning walks and for everyday around town. I have tried vests from Columbia, LL Bean, and The North Face, and this vest is hands down the best. It feels very lightweight, but it is very warm and blocks the harshest of winds. Build quality is top notch and feels like it will last for several years, if not decades. Would buy again for sure!

Favorite Vest

Hubby loves the fit and feel of this vest. He had an older version of the same vest that he also loved, but was unfortunately stolen. Giving only 4 stars as there is no cinch cord at the waist, even though it's listed in the description.

Must buy! I have one of every color!

I love this product! I wear vests to work everyday and this is by far one of the best ones I have! It's the perfect mix of warm and light weight. I love how deep the pockets are and having the chest pocket is very convenient! You can very easily dress this vest up or down depending on the occasion!

Great experience in North Face Store, Durham NC

The best thing about this vest was working with the manager of the store at SouthPointe Mall in Durham NC. It was busy in the store, but he took the time to help me find the right item for my husband, and helped me order online when the size was not available in the store. Excellent example of stellar customer service! ABecker

Too Tight Around the Chest

I bought this vest in the past and loved it, but I wore it out after a few years so I bought two more last year and was disappointed to find they are VERY tight around the chest, actually right below the pectoral area, when I put on the old one it fits perfectly, really disappointed as these must have been made incorrectly.

I've owned this for years now, and its still perfect.

I'm pretty hard on my stuff. I buy quality because I simply dont like to shop. I picked this up in a mall and over the years I have tried to beat it down. I hike, alot. and its the perfect compliment to a thicker hoody, or small jacket.I regularly throw this sucker on the ground to sit on the inside of it, and there's no stains on it that havent washed out in one cylce. I'd definitely recommend it. I dont really leave comments either so, I guess it was compelling enough to do so.
