FAQs

Is The North Face Antora Rain Jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it features The North Face's DryVent™ 2L fabric, which is seam-sealed and provides an impenetrable barrier to rain and snow, ensuring guaranteed dryness.

What does DryVent™ technology mean?

DryVent™ is a proprietary technology from The North Face that creates waterproof, windproof, and breathable fabrics. It allows moisture vapor from within to escape while blocking external moisture and wind.

Is this jacket environmentally friendly?

Yes, the Antora Rain Jacket is made with 100% recycled polyester for both the body fabric and lining, and it utilizes a non-PFC DWR (Durable Water-Repellent) finish, which is better for the environment.

How do I choose the correct size for my child?

The North Face recommends going one size up from your child's usual size to get the most comfortable and functional fit from this product.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

The Antora Rain Jacket is designed as an outer shell for rain and wind protection. For cold weather, it is ideal for layering over insulating garments to provide warmth while still benefiting from its waterproof and windproof properties.

How do I clean my Antora Rain Jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat to help reactivate the DWR finish. Info needed: Always refer to the specific care label inside the jacket for precise instructions.

What is the reflective bar on the sleeves for?

The reflective bar is a safety feature that enhances visibility in low-light conditions, such as dawn, dusk, or cloudy weather, making your child more noticeable to others.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels too snug or small.

The North Face recommends going one size up for this product to ensure the most comfortable and effective fit. If possible, try exchanging for a larger size.

Water repellency seems to be diminishing.

This is normal over time with DWR finishes. Wash the jacket according to care instructions, then tumble dry on low heat for 20 minutes to reactivate the DWR. If this doesn't help, consider applying a DWR-restoring treatment.

Jacket feels clammy or damp inside.

While the DryVent™ fabric is breathable, excessive layering underneath in warmer conditions can still lead to internal condensation. Ensure the child is not overdressed, allowing the jacket's breathability to work effectively. Also, check that all zippers and flaps are properly closed to prevent external moisture intrusion.

Zipper is stiff or hard to move.

Ensure the fabric flap is clear of the zipper teeth. Periodically clean the zipper with mild soap and water to remove dirt or debris. A small amount of zipper lubricant (designed for outdoor gear) can also help.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior weather protection (waterproof, windproof, breathable).
  • Made with environmentally friendly recycled materials and non-PFC DWR.
  • Enhanced visibility in low light for increased safety.
  • Comfortable and secure fit with adjustable hood and elastic cuffs.
  • Durable construction designed for active young wearers.
  • Features secure-zip pockets for storing small items.

Cons

  • Sizing may run small; manufacturer recommends sizing up for optimal fit.
  • Care instructions are not explicitly detailed in product description (Info needed: Specific washing temperature and drying instructions).
  • No internal pockets mentioned for additional storage.

Setup & Compatibility

Setup:

Using the Antora Rain Jacket is straightforward. Simply put it on over your child's clothing as an outer protective layer. Ensure the VISLON® centre front zip is fully closed, and the hook-and-loop flap is secured for maximum weather protection. Adjust the hood as needed for a snug fit.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed for children and youth, offering a versatile outer layer suitable for various outdoor activities in wet or windy conditions. It can be layered over base and mid-layers for added warmth in cooler temperatures.

Care

To maintain the performance and longevity of your Antora Rain Jacket, follow these general care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can damage the waterproof membrane and DWR finish.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. For best results, use dryer balls. Avoid high heat as it can damage the fabric. If possible, air dry.
  3. DWR Reactivation: Over time, the non-PFC DWR finish may lose effectiveness. You can reactivate it by tumble drying the jacket on a low heat setting for 20 minutes. If the water repellency is still diminished, consider using a DWR-restoring wash-in or spray-on product specifically designed for waterproof breathable fabrics.
  4. Storage: Store the jacket in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
