Product Information

Full details

The North Face Nimble Hooded Jacket is designed for adult males seeking a versatile, high-performance outerwear piece for outdoor adventures. Its key benefit lies in superior wind protection and water resistance combined with freedom of movement, though its active fit may be a consideration for those preferring a looser silhouette. This jacket features sweat-wicking, quick-drying fabric, an attached elastic-bound hood, and multiple zip pockets, including a media-compatible chest pocket.

FAQs

What is WindWall™ fabric?

WindWall™ fabrics are engineered by The North Face to reduce wind permeability significantly while maintaining good breathability. This helps to minimize the chilling effects of wind.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket is water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain and moisture. For heavy or prolonged rain, a fully waterproof jacket is recommended.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash cold with like colors, using powder detergent. Tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach, ironing, and dry cleaning.

What does 'active fit' mean?

An active fit is designed to be close to the body but not constricting, allowing for greater freedom of movement during high-output activities. It is generally slimmer than a regular or relaxed fit.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This jacket is primarily a wind shell. For cold weather, it is best used as an outer layer over insulating mid-layers like fleece or down jackets.

What is the purpose of the media-compatible chest pocket?

The media-compatible chest pocket is designed to securely hold a smartphone or other small electronic device, allowing for easy access while keeping it protected.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move

Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth. If stiffness persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Water resistance seems reduced

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment suitable for outdoor apparel. Follow the product's specific care instructions.

Jacket feels too tight or restrictive

Ensure you are wearing the correct size. Check the product's sizing chart. If the fit is still not ideal for your intended use, consider layering with thinner base layers or exploring alternative fits if available.
