Product Information

Full details

The North Face Reversible Perrito Jacket Junior is designed for young adventurers aged 7-8, offering versatile style and reliable warmth for everyday outdoor activities like school outings, playground fun, and light hikes. Its key advantage is the reversible design, providing two looks in one, complemented by recycled synthetic insulation that keeps kids warm even when damp, and a durable water-repellent finish for protection against light rain. While highly adaptable, it's important to note that its water-repellent finish is suited for light precipitation, not heavy downpours.

FAQs

Is The North Face Reversible Perrito Jacket Junior fully waterproof?

No, this jacket is not fully waterproof. It features a Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish, which causes water to bead up and roll off during light rain or mist. For heavy or prolonged precipitation, additional waterproof outerwear is recommended.

How do I properly wash this jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors, ensuring all zippers are closed. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry completely before storing.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold winter weather?

The jacket provides warmth with synthetic insulation that works well even when damp. For very cold winter conditions, especially below freezing, it is best used as a warm mid-layer with an additional waterproof/windproof outer shell, or with proper layering underneath.

What does 'reversible' mean for this jacket?

The 'reversible' feature means the jacket can be worn inside out, offering two distinct looks. This allows for versatility in style and can adapt to different preferences or outfits.

What type of insulation is used in this jacket?

The jacket uses recycled synthetic insulation, which is designed to provide consistent warmth and retain its insulating properties even if it gets wet.

Is this jacket suitable for both boys and girls?

This specific product variant is attributed for 'Male' children. However, the general Reversible Perrito jacket line often features unisex designs. Based on this product's attributes, it's designed for boys.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem as warm as before.

Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt can compress insulation. If recently washed, confirm it's completely dry and insulation has regained its loft. For very cold conditions, ensure adequate layering underneath.

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off.

The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket following care instructions, and consider applying a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in treatment designed for technical outerwear. Heat from a low tumble dry can sometimes reactivate existing DWR.

Zipper feels stiff or is sticking.

Check the zipper teeth for any trapped fabric or debris and remove carefully. You can also try applying a small amount of graphite from a pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth to help it move smoothly.

Pilling on the polyester fabric.

Pilling can occur with friction. Use a fabric shaver or a de-fuzzing tool to gently remove pills. Avoid excessive rubbing or abrasive surfaces.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile two-in-one styling with reversible design
  • Effective warmth even in damp conditions due to synthetic insulation
  • Provides protection against light rain with DWR finish
  • Durable and resilient 100% Polyester material
  • Made with recycled synthetic insulation, promoting sustainability

Cons

  • DWR finish offers limited protection against heavy or prolonged rain

  • No explicit temperature rating provided, requiring layering judgment for colder conditions
  • Synthetic insulation can be slightly bulkier than down for comparable warmth

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

No complex setup is required. Simply unpackage the jacket and it's ready to wear. Its reversible nature means you can choose which side to wear out based on preference or conditions.

Compatibility

This jacket is designed for children, specifically sized for 7-8 years old (UK sizing). It is compatible with a range of outdoor and casual clothing, serving as a versatile mid-layer or outer layer depending on the temperature. It's ideal for pairing with long-sleeved shirts, sweaters, and waterproof trousers for more extensive outdoor adventures.

Care

Proper care helps maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with similar colors. It is recommended to close all zippers before washing.
  2. Detergent: Use a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR finish and insulation.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. You can also hang dry for best results. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and maintain insulation loft.
  4. Bleaching/Ironing: Do not bleach. Do not iron, as high heat can damage the fabric and DWR coating.
  5. DWR Maintenance: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, you can restore its effectiveness using a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in product, following the product's instructions.
