FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

No, this jacket features a Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish, which helps shed light rain and moisture. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy downpours but provides protection in damp conditions.

What kind of insulation does it use?

It uses 100% recycled synthetic cluster insulation. This type of insulation is effective at retaining warmth even when wet, unlike down insulation.

How do I choose the correct size?

The North Face recommends going a size up to get the most out of this product. Please refer to the specific size chart for children and youth to ensure the best fit.

Can this jacket be worn for skiing or snowboarding?

While it provides warmth, this jacket is not designed as a primary ski or snowboard jacket due to its water-repellency limitations and lack of specific features like powder skirts. It could be used as a mid-layer under a waterproof shell for very cold, dry conditions.

Is the reversible feature practical for kids?

Yes, the fully reversible design is very practical, offering two distinct looks. This allows for versatility in style and can make the jacket feel like two different items, encouraging more wear.

What does 'Circular Design initiative' mean?

This jacket is part of The North Face's Circular Design initiative, which aims to minimize waste and pollution. It means the product is designed with its end-of-life in mind, and you can recycle it back to The North Face to continue its adventure.

Does it have an internal name tag?

Yes, the jacket includes an ID label, which is convenient for children's clothing in school or camp settings.

Can I use fabric softener when washing?

No, it is recommended to avoid using fabric softeners as they can compromise the Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish and the performance of the synthetic insulation.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm after washing.

Ensure the jacket is completely dry after washing. Synthetic insulation can clump if not fully dried; tumble dry on low heat with dryer balls to restore loft and warmth.

Water seems to soak in rather than bead off.

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be revitalized. After washing and drying, you can apply a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in product, following the product's instructions. Avoid fabric softeners as they can degrade DWR.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to use.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down. If it continues to stick, you can apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (like a graphite pencil lead) to the teeth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile with two reversible styles.
  • Provides warmth even when wet due to synthetic insulation.
  • Resistant to light rain and moisture.
  • Made from recycled materials, supporting sustainability.
  • Comfortable design with features like raglan sleeves and a chin guard.
  • Multiple pockets for convenience.

Cons

  • Sizing may run small; requires sizing up for optimal fit.
  • Water-repellency is for *light* rain, not heavy downpours.
  • Info needed: Specific temperature rating not provided.
  • Info needed: Not explicitly stated as highly breathable.

Setup

Simply put on the jacket over your child's clothing. Utilize the exposed VISLON center front zip with chin guard for easy closure. The reversible design means you can choose which side faces out based on preference or conditions. Ensure the elastic binding on the hood and cuffs provides a snug, comfortable fit to help retain warmth.

Compatibility

This jacket is ideal for cool to cold weather conditions and light moisture. It pairs well with base layers for colder temperatures or can be worn as a standalone outer layer in milder cold. It is suitable for activities such as hiking, school commutes, playground play, and general outdoor exploration. Given its light water-repellency, it can complement a fully waterproof outer shell for heavy rain. It is sized for Children & Youth.

Care

  1. Zip up all zippers before washing.
  2. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors.
  3. Use a mild detergent.
  4. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can impair the DWR finish and insulation performance.
  5. Tumble dry low. You may use dryer balls to help fluff the insulation and restore loft.
  6. Do not iron.
  7. Do not dry clean.
  8. Regular cleaning helps maintain the DWR finish and insulation performance.
