Product Information

Full details

The North Face Antora Rain Jacket is designed for young adventurers who need reliable protection from the elements. Its key benefit is providing waterproof, breathable, and warm coverage for outdoor activities, even in wet conditions. A minor caveat is that The North Face recommends sizing up for an optimal fit, especially for growth. This jacket features DryVent™ technology for waterproofing, a cozy fleece lining for warmth, and eco-friendly insulation and recycled materials.

FAQs

What is DryVent™ technology?

DryVent™ is The North Face's proprietary technology that uses a durable, waterproof, and breathable coating or membrane to keep you dry from the outside and comfortable from the inside.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

The jacket features Heatseeker™ Eco insulation and a fleece lining, providing warmth for cool, wet conditions. For very cold winter temperatures, layering with additional insulating garments is recommended.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Tumble dry on a low heat setting.

What does 'non-PFC DWR' mean?

Non-PFC DWR refers to a Durable Water-Repellent finish that does not use perfluorinated chemicals, which are considered more environmentally friendly.

Why does the product description recommend sizing up?

The North Face recommends sizing up to ensure children can get the most use out of the product, allowing for growth and comfortable layering underneath, especially if they are between sizes or prefer a looser fit.

Are the recycled materials durable?

Yes, the recycled nylon ripstop and polyester fleece are chosen for their durability, ensuring the jacket can withstand active use while providing warmth and weather protection.

What is the purpose of the ID label?

The ID label inside the jacket is for personalization, allowing children or parents to write their name, making it easier to identify the jacket if lost or in a group setting like school or camp.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed and the DWR finish may need to be reactivated by tumble drying on low heat. If the issue persists, consider reapplying a DWR treatment.

Fleece lining feels uncomfortable or stiff.

Ensure no fabric softener was used during washing. Wash again on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. Avoid high heat drying which can stiffen fleece.

Zipper is difficult to use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specialized zipper lubricant can be applied to the teeth.

Reflective detail is fading.

Avoid excessive scrubbing or harsh chemicals during washing. Gentle washing and air drying or low heat tumble drying will help preserve the reflective elements.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathable protection for rainy weather.
  • Provides good warmth with fleece lining and synthetic insulation.
  • Made with a significant amount of recycled materials, making it an eco-friendly option.
  • Designed with safety in mind through reflective accents.
  • Comfortable fit and feel for active children.

Cons

  • The North Face recommends sizing up, which might require careful consideration of the size chart.
  • While warm, it is primarily a rain jacket and may not be sufficient as a standalone winter coat in very cold temperatures.
  • Care instructions require specific washing and drying methods to maintain waterproof properties.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Ensure the zippers are fully closed before use.

Compatibility:

The Antora Rain Jacket is designed for children and youth. It pairs well with other layers for added warmth, such as a fleece or thermal base layer, depending on the temperature.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Do not iron or dry clean. This process helps to reactivate the Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish.
  4. Water Repellency: If the DWR finish appears to be wearing off (water no longer beads up on the surface), consider applying a spray-on or wash-in water repellent suitable for waterproof outerwear after washing and drying.
