FAQs

What does DryVent™ 2L technology mean?

DryVent™ 2L is The North Face's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier. The '2L' stands for '2-layer,' indicating that there are two layers of fabric that create the protective shell, making it ideal for keeping you dry and comfortable in challenging weather.

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, the Antora Rain Jacket features seam-sealed DryVent™ 2L fabric with a non-PFC DWR finish, providing an impenetrable barrier to rain and snow, ensuring guaranteed dryness for your child.

Is the jacket breathable, or will my child get sweaty?

Absolutely. Our unique DryVent™ fabric technology allows air to pass through, helping to regulate body temperature and keep your child cooler and more comfortable, even during active play.

What does 'non-PFC DWR finish' mean?

Non-PFC DWR means the Durable Water-Repellent finish used on the jacket is free from perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs). This makes the jacket a more environmentally friendly choice while still effectively repelling water from the fabric surface.

What age group is this jacket suitable for?

This jacket is specifically sized for Children & Youth. Please refer to the size chart, and The North Face generally recommends going a size up to get the most comfortable fit.

How do I ensure the jacket lasts a long time?

To prolong the life of the jacket, follow the care instructions: machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, avoid fabric softeners, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Regularly reactivating the DWR finish also helps maintain its waterproof performance.

Are there any safety features?

Yes, the jacket includes a reflective bar on the side of the sleeves. This detailing helps enhance visibility in low-light conditions, adding an important safety element for your child.

Troubleshooting

Water doesn't bead up on the fabric anymore, or the jacket feels less waterproof.

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish may need reactivation. First, wash the jacket as per care instructions. Then, tumble dry on low heat for 20 minutes to reactivate the DWR. If this doesn't work, apply a DWR-restoring spray or wash-in product designed for waterproof garments.

Child feels too warm or sweaty inside the jacket.

While the jacket is breathable, ensure your child is wearing appropriate layers underneath. Avoid heavy cotton layers that can trap moisture. Opt for moisture-wicking base layers to enhance the jacket's breathability.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate.

Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth using a small brush. If stiffness persists, apply a zipper lubricant designed for outdoor gear to the teeth. Ensure the flap is clear of the zipper path.

Jacket seems to allow wind through.

The DryVent™ technology is inherently windproof. Ensure all zippers are fully closed, and the hook-and-loop flap is securely fastened over the main zipper. Check cuffs and hood for a snug fit to minimize wind entry.

This jacket requires no special setup; simply wear it over your child's clothing. It is designed for Children & Youth, offering unisex sizing. The North Face recommends going a size up to ensure the best fit and allow for layering. To care for your Antora Rain Jacket and maintain its performance:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR finish and breathability.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not bleach or iron.
  3. DWR Reactivation: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. You can reactivate it by tumble drying on low heat (if care label permits) or by using a specialized DWR-restoring spray or wash-in product.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
