Product Information

Full details

The North Face Cyclone Wind Jacket is an ideal outer layer for active kids who need reliable protection against blustery weather and light rain. Designed with wind-blocking technology and a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, this jacket provides essential comfort during outdoor play, though its lightweight construction is intended for layering rather than providing heavy insulation in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-repellent, meaning it handles light moisture and short periods in rain. It is not seam-sealed or designed for heavy rain.

Can I machine wash this jacket?

Yes, machine wash in cold water with mild detergent. Always check the internal care label for specific instructions.

Does this jacket provide insulation?

This is a shell jacket designed to block wind. It does not contain insulation, so it is best worn over sweaters or hoodies for warmth.

How does the sizing run?

This jacket features a regular fit. It is designed to accommodate layers underneath, but it is recommended to check the specific size chart for the best fit.

What should I do if the DWR finish wears off?

You can apply an aftermarket DWR spray specifically made for technical outerwear to restore the water-shedding performance.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the fabric instead of beading off

The DWR finish may be worn out. Try washing and tumble drying on low heat to reactivate, or apply a fabric-safe DWR re-waterproofing spray.

Zipper sticking or difficult to pull

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it remains stiff, gently clean the track of any debris or sand and consider a light application of a zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is designed for a regular, comfortable fit that allows for essential layering underneath. To maintain the jacket's technical properties, always follow the care label instructions. Generally, it is best to machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the water-repellent finish. To reactivate the DWR coating, periodic tumble drying on low heat is recommended, as directed by the garment's specific tag. Always zip up the jacket fully before placing it in the wash to prevent the zipper from snagging on other items.
