Jacket suze
November 30, 2022

The jacket is great but you need a 5XL size, it does not fit me with present size.

Fantastic quality
November 29, 2022

I ordered these pants a little later than I should of and the delivery was slightly late for when I needed them for a trip to Norway. That is not Northbounds fault it is mine. I received the pants when I got back and am really impressed with the quality and the function. Superb clothing.

Nice and warm up around my neck
November 28, 2022

The website is always easy to use.
I have short hair and a long neck and cold air usually blows down my collar, but this jacket is designed well for me. I find I don't have to use a scarf or gaiter as often!

Waterproof jeans are excellent!
November 27, 2022

Quality is good I have ordered several different things; my favourite is the waterproof Jeans. Good fit, comfortable, durable and truly waterproof. I work on roofs in the heavy rain and these hold up well.

Delivery of item
November 27, 2022

I had been shopping for a pair of all weather walking pants for several years. I walk 8 to 10 km per day in all kinds of weather, so was delighted to find a Canadian supplier of just what I had been looking for at a reasonable price. The pants were in stock and shipping was confirmed for 09 DEC 22. Little to I realize that they would be intercepted and inspected by the Canada Border Services Agency (designed in Canada but made in China).The delivery went into limbo until teh 16 DEC 22 when I was notified that shipping had resumed and that I could expect delivery on 19 DEC 22, fully 10 days after I had been expecting them. I am delighted with the product but as a first time customer, I was very disappointed in the disconnect between the projected delivery date and the actual delivery date.
I probably will continue to order from Northbound Gear but will reset my expectations in the future.

It's difficult to choose pants that have specific lengths, I am tall so I could only order the women adventure water resistant pants, if the other pants would have short, medium and tall I would have ordered more.
