FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?
This is a rain jacket designed for protection against water and wind. It is lightweight and does not have insulation, making it best suited for mild to cool, wet conditions. For colder weather, layering with a warm fleece or insulated jacket underneath is recommended.
How do I know what size to order?
Please consult the specific size chart provided for The North Face children's apparel. It typically includes measurements for chest, waist, and height to help you find the best fit for your child.
Can the hood be removed?
No, the hood on this Zipline Rain Jacket is fixed and cannot be removed.
What is the main material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from 100% polyester.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The side seam pockets feature zip fastening, which helps to keep the contents dry from light rain and splashes, but they are not designed to be fully submersible.
How should I clean the jacket if it gets muddy?
You can machine wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Ensure zippers are closed before washing. After washing, hang it to air dry or tumble dry on low.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof.
Ensure the jacket has been washed according to care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners. Consider a re-waterproofing treatment if necessary, following product instructions.
Zipper is difficult to use.
Check the zipper teeth for any debris or fabric caught. Gently try to clear the obstruction. A small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant can help ease movement.
Fit seems too tight or too loose.
Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements. The regular fit is designed for layering; if it feels too snug with a layer underneath, consider sizing up. If it's too loose, ensure the cuffs and hem provide a secure fit.
