Full details
This guide is for parents looking for a durable and comfortable rain jacket for their young daughters, aged 6 years. The key benefit is reliable protection from the elements with a cozy fleece lining for added warmth. A potential caveat is that it is specifically sized for a 6-year-old, so fit may vary. The Antora Rain Jacket offers waterproof protection, a comfortable fleece lining, secure pockets, and an integrated hood, making it ideal for active outdoor play in wet weather.

FAQs
What is the main material of this jacket?
The outer shell is made of a waterproof material, and the hood and upper body are lined with cozy deep pile fleece.
Is this jacket suitable for very cold, snowy weather?
While the fleece lining provides warmth, this jacket is primarily designed as a rain jacket. For extreme cold or heavy snow, additional layers or a more insulated jacket may be necessary.
How do I know if the size 6 is correct for my child?
This jacket is specifically sized for a 6-year-old. It is recommended to check The North Face's general sizing chart for children's apparel and compare measurements if possible. The fit should allow for comfortable movement over other clothing.
Can the hood be removed?
No, the hood is integrated into the jacket design and cannot be removed.
What should I do if the jacket gets dirty?
For general dirt, wipe with a damp cloth. For a thorough cleaning, follow the machine wash cold, mild detergent, and tumble dry low instructions provided in the care section.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are welt pockets with secure zipper closures, designed to keep contents dry from light rain, but they are not fully submersible.
Does this jacket come in other colors or sizes?
This specific product listing is for the purple, size 6 years version. The North Face may offer this jacket style in other colors and sizes under different product codes or variants.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is difficult to zip or unzip.
Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Check for any debris. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. If the issue persists, a small amount of wax or graphite (from a pencil tip) applied to the zipper teeth might help.
Water seems to be leaking through the fabric.
Check the seams for any damage. Ensure all zippers are fully closed. For persistent issues, the jacket's waterproof treatment may need to be reapplied following manufacturer guidelines for outdoor gear.
Fleece lining feels matted or less soft after washing.
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softener, as these can affect fleece. Tumble dry on low heat as recommended. Avoid ironing.
Hood is not fitting snugly.
Check the elastic rain protection tunnel. Ensure it is seated correctly and providing tension. The design aims for a comfortable fit, not a fully sealed one, to maintain comfort and visibility.
