FAQs

What is WINDWALL technology?

WINDWALL is a fabric technology used by The North Face that significantly reduces wind permeability while maintaining a good level of breathability.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

While the jacket is waterproof, breathable, and seam-sealed, it is optimized for wind resistance. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a dedicated hardshell jacket might offer more robust protection.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

What material is the jacket made of?

The jacket is made from 100% nylon ripstop fabric.

Where is the jacket manufactured?

This jacket is manufactured in Indonesia.

What are the care instructions for the zippers and Velcro?

Fasten all zippers and Velcro closures before washing to prevent them from snagging or damaging the fabric.

Can I adjust the fit of the jacket?

Yes, the jacket features drawstring adjustments on the hood and hem, as well as Velcro fasteners on the cuffs for a customizable fit.

Troubleshooting

Jacket does not feel windproof.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and Velcro fasteners are secured. Check that the hood and hem drawstrings are tightened.

Water is seeping through the fabric.

This jacket is primarily wind-resistant and water-repellent. For heavy rain, consider a fully waterproof jacket. Ensure care instructions have been followed, as improper washing can affect water resistance.

Pockets feel restrictive.

Ensure items are placed centrally within the pockets and do not obstruct the zipper closure. The pockets are designed for secure storage rather than large volume.
