The North Face Rain Jacket excels in keeping children dry and comfortable during various outdoor activities in wet or windy conditions. Its DryVent™ 2L technology acts as a reliable shield, making it ideal for everything from a light drizzle walk to a heavy downpour on a hiking trail. For example, during a family hike, the jacket's seam-sealed construction and non-PFC DWR finish will prevent water penetration, while its breathable fabric ensures that energetic play doesn't lead to overheating and clamminess. The windproof barrier is particularly beneficial on exposed trails or open playgrounds, greatly reducing the effects of wind chill. The reflective bar on the sleeves provides peace of mind when visibility is reduced, such as during early morning outings or late afternoon adventures. The secure-zip hand pockets are practical for carrying small treasures or keeping hands warm. Its 100% recycled polyester construction means users can feel good about their purchase's environmental impact while enjoying top-tier performance. This jacket is versatile, suitable for both dedicated hiking and general lifestyle use, making it a dependable outer layer for school, playgrounds, and outdoor exploration.
Setup: The North Face Rain Jacket requires no complex setup. Simply unpack and wear. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before use in wet conditions to maximize protection. Compatibility: - Age Group: Designed for children & youth. - Gender: Unisex. - Sizing: This garment features a standard fit. However, The North Face recommends going a size up to get the most out of the product, especially for layering or extended use. Always refer to the official size chart for the best fit. Care: To maintain the performance and longevity of your DryVent™ jacket: - Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. - Do not use fabric softener, bleach, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the DWR finish and fabric integrity. - Tumble dry low or hang dry. If tumble drying, a low heat setting can help reactivate the DWR finish. - Do not iron. - Close all zippers and hook-and-loop closures before washing.
