Review: The North Face Women's La Paz Jacket

The last couple of weeks have seen our first Autumn/Winter drops from The North Face, and two rather large drops they were! We know it's still August and the majority of people are still getting the most out of their Summer wear, but at the same time, there's never any harm in planning ahead for the Winter chill! With that in mind we've now got the Metropolis Parka in stock, the Arctic Parka, the new Nuptse 2 ranges and much much more!

We've also had The North Face Women's La Paz Jacket swing by, so I thought I'd give it a closer look! The La Paz is new for this season and offers stylish warmth in a lightweight package. It has a 600 Goose Down fill, so it's packing plenty of insulation, but still manages to maintain a sleek and slender look, so you won't be looking like the Michelin Man.

It's been designed primarily as a mid layer piece, so you can stick a baselayer underneath and a shell on top for extra protection. But in truth it can be worn whatever the weather and whatever the circumstance, whether it's just for around town use or walking the dog, the La Paz has plenty of versatility.
It comes with all the essentials; two hand pockets to store away all your smaller accessories and to keep your hands toasty when the cold chill comes down. A hem cinchcord let's you adjust the fit and bound cuffs makes sure the cold outside doesn't breach into the inside of the jacket. The North Face Women's La Paz Jacket comes in four colours; Parachute Purple (as shown), Brunette Brown, Black and Fusion Pink. As mentioned above the La Paz packs in a 600 down fill and still only comes out weighing 365g, so theres no silly bulk, plus it still maintains it's flexability so movement won't be restricted.
