They have one at VF solutions available for try-on. Its a large-regular. Otherwise you have to guess from a sizing chart.
Overall very nice, but I would have gone with a removable fleece liner.
$200. 2-3 weeks for delivery.
Once it arrives my leather jacket is going in the basement until I need to pull it out with my docksiders and weave belt for a 1980s retro party...

Seems nice, the picture link seems accurate to me (minus the NF logo)
it is waterproof, detachable hood, insulation lining is zippered in. I didn't try and take it out, but NorthFace has a pretty good rep.
Might as well spend Fred's money to try out a new jacket--would make it easier to blend w/ the hockey punks up in AK

I was going to buy one but, now I think I will just continue being a "tool"

balance that, of course, with trying to stuff another, less conspicuous, jacket into an already overstuffed suitcase for a two-week trip. It's a tradeoff for sure.
but, it's not nearly as tool-ish as the guys who wear the uniform pants and shoes with the same 80's-style polo shirt every evening out on a 5-day plus trip. Now THAT's a tool - (no kidding, I've seen it here at FedEx, believe it or not)
what's up with some of these guys? (at least that guy would go out - not a slam-clicker, I gotta give him that)
