The North Face: Men's McMurdo Down Parka

Aside from a new nylon oxford shell fabric (it used to be dobby) The North Face McMurdo Parka still offers everything a parka should be for work and play in cold weather. That's probably why this garment ranks among the most successful in The North Face outerwear collection. The McMurdo features a waterproof, breathable, seam-sealed construction backed by warm 550-fill down and more pockets than you'll typically find on most winter outerwear. If fur isn't your thing, the faux trim can be easily removed along with the entire adjustable hood. Inside the McMurdo Parka you'll find two zippered security pockets and two pockets for water bottles. This North Face Parka is also electronics ready, so you can hook up to your work radio or MP3 music player without running a bunch of wires or leaving zippers agape. Fun aside, the McMurdo is one of the best-equipped parkas we've seen, and unless global warming eliminates winter, we won't have a bunch in stock for long.
