Product Information
Full details
The North Face Perlino Softshell Pants are designed for active kids who need reliable protection during outdoor play and exploration. Engineered with WINDWALL fabric for wind resistance and a non-PFC DWR finish for light water repellency, these pants ensure comfort in variable weather conditions. While highly versatile for hiking and climbing, parents should note that these are softshell trousers best suited for light precipitation rather than heavy rain exposure.

FAQs
Are these pants waterproof?
No, they are water-repellent, meaning they can handle light splashes and light rain, but they are not designed for heavy downpours.
Can these be worn in winter?
They can be worn in mild winter conditions, but for very cold, snowy days, it is recommended to pair them with thermal base layers.
How do I know which size to pick?
The North Face uses standard children's sizing. Use the elastic cinch-cord to fine-tune the waist if the fit is slightly generous.
Do the knees wear out quickly?
The articulated construction is designed for durability, but like all technical gear, avoid dragging them across abrasive surfaces unnecessarily.
Can I iron these pants?
Avoid ironing, as high heat can damage the synthetic polyester fibers and the DWR coating.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose even when adjusted
Ensure the cinch-cord is pulled evenly from both sides and locked properly into the provided adjuster mechanism.
Pants are soaking up water quickly
The DWR finish may be wearing off; try tumble drying on low heat to reactivate, or apply a DWR re-waterproofing spray if the pants are older.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent wind resistance for windy days
- Adjustable waist offers a great fit for various body types
- Articulated knees allow for full range of motion
- Zip pockets prevent items from falling out during play
- Lightweight and breathable material
Cons
- Not waterproof; only intended for light water repellency
- Limited to kids sizing
- Requires proper care to maintain the DWR finish
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, utilize the internal elastic cinch-cord located within the waistband to tighten the pants until they sit securely on the waist. These pants are compatible with most base layers if extra warmth is needed on colder days. For care, it is recommended to machine wash in cold water using a gentle cycle. To maintain the effectiveness of the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, avoid using fabric softeners, and if possible, tumble dry on low heat as the heat can help reactivate the water-repellent properties of the fabric.
