North Face makes good stuff, but that jacket isn't going to do squat if you two end up on the pavement. Get her leather.

that jacket won't stop wind and she'll be freezing, not to mention it's worthless for protection. get her a nice thick lined leather and layer thin layers underneath, t-shirt, long john shirt, thin fleece, if needed a thicker fleece, then a thick leather on top. typically the face and hands get cold before the core anyway. i still haven't found a pair of gloves that i can use in 30 degree and below weather and my hands don't freeze.

All his/her other posts are quick two-three word generic replies just to appear to be a legit member. Plus one other post with a dealstudio link.

Your gear is the one thing you don't skimp money on. Pay for the good stuff and hope you never need it!
