The North Face McMurdo Parka

The North Face McMurdo Parka is a winter coat named after the largest community in Antarctica, McMurdo Sound, which is home to McMurdo Station, a US science facility capable of housing 1258 residents. This Parka is longer than the similar Ice Jacket, and also features a removable hood with detachable faux fur trim, as well as sporting a 550 fill power density of down filling.

The outer shell is made of The North Face's HyVent 2L material as well, which features a protective outer layer to repel moisture and rain yet is still breathable, and an inner layer made from polyurethane foam capable of drawing wetness away from the skin to the outside. It also features a key clip in the hand pocket to secure your keys when active, adjustable Velcro cuffs and Velcro enclosed front zipper, and an array of interior and exterior pockets as outlined below, including a media player pocket. Unlike the Ice Jacket, the McMurdo is also available in Boy's which is about one hundred dollars cheaper, as well as Men's sizes up to 5XL.
