FAQs

Is this jacket truly waterproof?

No, the jacket features a Non-PFC DWR finish which provides protection from light moisture and fabric saturation. It is water-repellent, not fully waterproof, meaning it will repel light rain and snow but may eventually soak through in heavy or prolonged downpours.

What is the 'Circular Design' initiative?

The Circular Design initiative is The North Face's commitment to minimizing waste and pollution. Products part of this initiative, like the Perrito Jacket, are designed so that when they reach the end of their usable life, they can be recycled back to The North Face to be repurposed into new products, regenerating natural systems.

What kind of insulation is used in this jacket?

The jacket uses 100% recycled synthetic cluster insulation. This type of insulation is excellent because it maintains warmth even in damp or wet conditions, unlike traditional down insulation which loses its insulating properties when wet.

Can boys wear this jacket, or is it only for girls?

While the product description specifies 'junior girls' or 'female youth,' the design is often considered unisex. Many of the features are universally beneficial. It's best to refer to the sizing and ensure it fits comfortably, regardless of gender.

How do I care for the jacket to maintain its water repellency?

Machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat, and you can add a few clean tennis balls to help reactivate the DWR finish. If the DWR performance decreases over time, you can reapply a dedicated DWR treatment designed for outdoor apparel.

Does this jacket have a chin guard on the zipper?

Yes, the jacket features an exposed VISLON center front zip with a chin guard to prevent irritation or pinching when the zipper is fully closed.

Troubleshooting

Jacket doesn't seem warm enough.

Ensure the jacket is sized correctly and that suitable layers are worn underneath based on the temperature. While insulated, it's designed for cool to cold conditions, not extreme sub-zero temperatures without proper layering.

Water isn't beading on the surface anymore.

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish can wear off over time or with washing. Wash the jacket with a technical apparel cleaner and/or tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR. If that doesn't work, consider applying a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment specifically for outdoor garments.

Jacket feels too tight or small.

The manufacturer recommends going a size up from the usual size. If the jacket feels restrictive, especially with layers, it may be undersized. Consider exchanging for a larger size.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. If clear, gently rub a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth to help it move smoothly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Versatile Reversible Design: Two styles in one jacket extends usability and aesthetic appeal.
  • Warmth in Damp Conditions: Synthetic insulation maintains insulating properties even when wet.
  • Eco-Friendly Materials: Made with 100% recycled polyester and part of a Circular Design initiative.
  • Comfort-Focused Fit: Raglan sleeves and elastic binding ensure comfort and mobility.
  • Practical Storage: Multiple pockets provide convenient places for small items.

Cons

  • Sizing Recommendation: Users are advised to size up, which may require careful consideration when purchasing.
  • Specific Age/Gender Focus: Primarily designed for junior girls/youth, which might limit broader appeal for certain users.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

There is no complex setup required for the Perrito Hooded Jacket. Simply unpack, ensure the correct size, and wear. Remember The North Face recommends going a size up for optimal fit and to get the most out of this product.

Compatibility

This jacket is sized for Children & Youth. It is designed for female youth, but its versatile style may be suitable for other youth. Refer to the size chart (if available) and the 'go a size up' recommendation when selecting.

Care

  • Washing: The jacket is machine washable. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals or bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with a few clean tennis balls to help fluff the insulation. Do not iron or dry clean.
  • Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
  • DWR Reapplication: Over time, the DWR finish may wear off. If water no longer beads on the surface, consider reapplying a suitable DWR treatment designed for outdoor apparel, following the product's instructions.
