| Great jacket 05-13-04 |

| My husband bought this jacket for our trip to England and Scotland, both very rainy places. This jacket made it possible for us to enjoy the UK even when it was rainy. The jackets were convenient to wear when it wasn't raining and kept us impeccably dry even when it rained all day. |

| I have had this jacket for a little over a year and it has performed great. It is incredibly versatile highly waterproof jacket that has always performed to my needs. Bottom line is it is a high quality compressible jacket. |

| Perfect for summer rains in the deep south. Completely waterproof, but being light, breathable, and having zipper-controlled ventilation, it is not hot and clammy like my other rain jackets. I particularly like the adjustable hood that stays in place, and the compactness when folded. |

| I just got my North Face not too long ago. I absolutely love it. It's not only warm but it also keeps all the rain of you. The jacket also looks stylish. This maybe my first North Face and it won’t be my last. Thanks! |

| Nice lightweight waterproof jacket at great price. I wanted that all purpose light weight jacket that was waterproof that was not too warm for summer type conditions that did not cost a fortune.
Great to take along for any vacation. |

| North Face Venture Jacket - excellent 08-29-04 |

| This is a great jacket, and waterproof as advertised. It's lightweight, takes up very little space and loks well done and "assembled."
I use it sometimes when playing golf, and my only complaint would be the hood, that isn't possible to fold in a proper way - it blows around my head in windy conditions. |

| I work outside in the rain sometimes, and I just had my first test of this jacket today in Manhattan. What a disappointment! At the end of the day I was soaking wet. And when I took the jacket off, the inside was wet. Not clammy-wet, but actual huge big patches of real wetness. The front of my T-shirt was drenched. I had everything sealed as best I could, and still the rain got in. No more waterproof than a non-waterproof jacket, in my opinion! |

| The Venture Jacket is average. I wore it in a downpour in muggy conditions and it kept me dry. I did sweat greatly in this jacket while it was fully unzipped in the front and the pit-zipps were fully open too. One of the cinch cords on the hem broke and one on the hood. I'd like to use one hand to cinch down the jacket in rain or cold with the product malfunctioning. The jacket does keep one dry, however. I wish I spent a little more money on the North Face DIAD Jacket. I am also partial to Mountain Hardware jackets.That company makes a fine, well thought out jacket.... |

| TNF Venture 02-11-05 |

| There's nothing quite like the feeling of watching the water just bead up, and feeling the extra weight all over you, all while remaining perfectly dry. You need to be conscientious of you fellow adventurers, though. In a good downpour, just a twist, or a jump, and a spray of water launches from the jacket. It’s fun to see, but you don’t want to soak your neighbor.
The design of the hood is very functional, and adjustable to help with changing conditions. The breatheability is awesome; you never feel like you have a garbage bag on, and you can regulate the heat very easily with the pit-zips. The jacket is relatively wind-resistant… although the gale at the top of the mountain will point out to you that it is not “wind-proof”.
This is no heavy weight, nor is it the “all weather” gear (it can stick to your skin), but for the "just-in-case", or the extra shell on top, it fits the bill perfectly. |

| I am continually pleased with ALL of my North Face purchases. This jacket has been no exception. The Venture jacket provides great protection from Mother Nature and has provided me with an exceptional product. The service and shipping were very pleasant as well. Thanks Backcountry.com |

| After going through Hurricanes Charley and Frances, I thought it was time to get a rain jacket. To make a long story short, Hurricane Jeanne came through and the jacket held up perfectly. No problems at all, didn't get a drop of water on my body or my head. The hood is great with the straps on the back to tighten to your head. Love the fact that I can stow the jacket in one of the pockets to keep in my backpack anytime unexpected rain comes. There is absolutely nothing bad with the jacket. Highly recommend both the jacket and Backcountry for its great prices. |

| PERFECT FOR IRELAND 10-14-05 |
CORDELLIA

|
| This was a heaven sent. As you know, Ireland weather can change in a instant from sunny and beautiful to down pour and then back to beautiful and sunny. This jacket was light enough, waterproof enough and windproof enough for those sunny days and then for the sleet we encountered on the Cliffs of Moher. I couldn't recommend this jacket enough and I can't wait to try it out in Germany next year. |

| Great Jacket 02-01-08 |

| This jacket is amazing. When it arrived, I put the sleeve in the sink and sprayed it. It was like water off a duck's back - a quick shake and it was dry again. A week later I wore it on a vigorous walk in a strong down pour on a cold day. Again it performed flawlessly. The only moisture inside was sweat vapor condensing on the cold fabric. I vented most of the vapor out with the underarm zippers. It's super lightweight so don't expect it to keep you warm without layers on underneath. Excellent construction. Highly recommended! |

| Good rain jacket that is both rugged and stylish. Unlike my prior North Face purchases, this jacket seems to run true to size.
Overall, I would buy it again. However, like all North Face gear, it's overpriced (i.e., you are paying for the name). |

| Just spent a week in Ireland and my husband, daughter, and I all have North Face Venture Jackets. We couldn't have done the trip without them. When the rain and wind of the double-decker tour bus forced others downstairs, we just snugged up the multi-adjustable hoods. Even on the warmest days with the pit-zips open, they were perfect. The pockets held an entire purse worth of goodies to keep my hands free. Love them!! |

| Great Jacket 01-24-05 |
Roger J.

| I mainly bought the Venture jacket for my early walks in the mornings. I usually start out about 4:30 am. The walk lasted about an hour and a half. It has been quit cold over here in the East Bay. The Venture jacket really keeps the wind and cold out. It breaths much better then any other jacket that I have used. It is a great jacket. |

| I purchased two of these jackets for my nephews, both were delighted with their gifts, and the cost to me was less than that charged by my local retailer. I definitely will shop here again at Backcountry.com |

| Read lots of reviews from good to bad. But for my needs--general wear as a shell when windy or moist-- it can't be beat! Dry Touch is an added plus--can't be happier! Thanks |

| Very nice jacket and waterproof so far. It's much lighter than my other waterproof jackets and is usually the first jacket I grab walking out the door. I was a fan of North Face back in the 70's when I did a lot of backpacking. I considered the Marmot Oracle but couldn't pass up the good deal on the Venture. I continue to be totally impressed with North Face. |

| I just got back from a 21 day trip through Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons, the Tobacco Roots, and Moab. The first 14 days it was raining, sleeting, or snowing. The jacket was great in the rain! It kept me dry, and I didn't overheat! In the snow I wore a fleece base layer with the jacket over top and it was perfect! Bottom line: I'll be buying one for my wife! |

| Nice features, quality construction, light and packable. Hood can be closed up AND resized to your head so you don't get lost inside the hood when you turn to the side. The sleeve cuffs adjust and can cinch down to keep most water from running down your arm. I'm about 6'2" and got an XL and it is fine. It doesn't ride up much at all when reaching. |

| I haven't actually used it in a downpour, but in a misty windy evening it kept the drizzle out, and the wind too. It folds into the left pocket, it's light, and it packs up pretty small. |

| I have been looking for a good lightweight rain coat for wearing around when its not winter and I found this jacket. This jacket is awesome. It is lightweight, breathes very well and has kept me dry even in the heaviest of rains here in the Northeast. I definitely recommend this jacket if you are looking for a good lightweight rain jacket. |
