FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The product description does not specify if the jacket is waterproof. It is likely water-resistant, suitable for light rain or snow, but not designed for heavy downpours. For full waterproofing, you would typically need a jacket with a dedicated waterproof membrane.

How do I determine the correct size for my child?

This jacket is labeled as size '1-2', typically corresponding to age 1-2 years. For the best fit, refer to The North Face's official size chart, which usually includes measurements for height and weight. If your child is between sizes, consider sizing up to allow for growth and layering.

Can this jacket be machine washed?

Yes, typically The North Face jackets are machine washable. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific washing instructions. Generally, machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low heat to preserve the insulation and fabric.

What kind of insulation does this jacket use?

The product description does not specify the type of insulation. The 'Perrito' line often uses synthetic insulation, known for retaining warmth even when damp. For precise details, please refer to the product tag or The North Face's official website.

Are the logos on both sides of the reversible jacket?

Yes, the product description mentions a heat transfer logo on the left chest and back right shoulder of the outside, and an embroidered logo on the left chest of the back (implying the reverse side). So, both sides feature The North Face branding.

Is this jacket suitable for skiing or snowboarding?

While it provides warmth, this jacket is designed more for everyday cool weather wear and light outdoor activities. For skiing or snowboarding, a jacket with specific features like higher waterproofing, powder skirts, and often more robust insulation designed for extreme cold and snow sports would be more appropriate.

What is the 'three-piece hood' feature?

A three-piece hood is constructed from three separate panels of fabric sewn together, which allows it to contour more naturally to the shape of the head. This provides a better, more comfortable fit and improved coverage compared to simpler two-piece hoods.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem warm enough for cold weather.

This jacket is designed for general cool weather. For very cold conditions, ensure your child wears appropriate base layers and mid-layers underneath. Consider adding a fleece or thermal top to enhance warmth. Consult the care label for specific material information, if available, which might guide its suitable temperature range.

Zipper is stiff or gets stuck.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away and try zipping again. A small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., graphite from a pencil or specialized zipper wax) can help smooth movement. Avoid forcing the zipper, as this can cause damage.

Jacket appears to have lost its puffiness/insulation after washing.

This can happen if the insulation clumps. After washing, tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. These will help break up clumps and redistribute the insulation evenly, restoring the jacket's loft.

For care, specific washing instructions are crucial for maintaining the jacket's integrity and warmth. Always check the care label inside the garment for the most accurate information. Generally, for similar insulated jackets, machine washing in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent is recommended, followed by tumble drying on low heat with tennis balls to help fluff the insulation.
