Product Information

Full details

The North Face Perlino Softshell Jacket is a versatile, performance-oriented layer designed specifically for active kids who need freedom of movement during outdoor play or daily commutes to school. By combining a durable smooth softshell exterior with a flexible stretch fit, it provides excellent comfort and protection against the elements; however, parents should note that while it is designed for versatility, it is best suited as a mid-layer or light outer shell rather than a heavy-duty winter parka.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The Perlino is designed as a softshell jacket, which typically offers water-resistant protection, not full waterproofing.

How should I choose the right size?

This model is available in various sizes from XS (5-6) to XL, allowing you to select based on the child's typical clothing size or age range.

Can this be worn under a winter coat?

Yes, its sleek fit makes it an excellent choice for a layering piece under a heavier outer jacket during extreme winter conditions.

Are the pockets large enough for a phone?

The pockets are designed for small personal items such as gloves, keys, or small snacks, but may be tight for larger modern smartphones.

Is the material machine washable?

Yes, the polyester blend is machine washable; please follow the care label instructions regarding temperature and drying.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull

Check the zipper track for any caught fabric or debris; clean with a soft brush if necessary.

Jacket losing water resistance over time

Re-apply a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray designed for softshell garments after washing.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Flexible material allows for unrestricted movement during active play
  • Versatile design suitable for both school and outdoor adventures
  • Zippered pockets prevent items from falling out during high-activity use
  • Easy-to-use full-zip closure is ideal for children
  • High collar provides extra protection from cold winds

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme cold weather or heavy precipitation
  • Limited to polyester-based softshell material which may not be fully waterproof
  • Requires careful laundering to maintain the softshell finish

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the jacket maintains its performance qualities, it should be kept away from harsh abrasive surfaces that might snag the outer fabric. When washing, ensure the zipper is fully closed to prevent damage to the teeth or surrounding fabric. It is recommended to wash in cool water using a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, which can negatively affect the jacket's breathability and water-repellent properties. Always air dry or tumble dry on the lowest heat setting to prevent the material from losing its elasticity.
