FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

The North Face Padded Jacket II is made from durable polyester, which offers some resistance to light moisture. However, it is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, we recommend wearing a waterproof shell over it.

What temperatures is this jacket suitable for?

This padded jacket is designed to provide warmth in cool to cold conditions, making it ideal for temperatures typical of autumn and mild winter days. For very cold or sub-zero temperatures, it is best used as part of a layering system.

How do I choose the right size for my child?

The jacket comes in juniors' sizing. We recommend checking The North Face's official size guide, which typically provides measurements based on age, height, and chest circumference, to ensure the best fit.

Can I remove the hood?

No, the hood on The North Face Padded Jacket II is fixed and cannot be detached.

How often should I wash the jacket?

The frequency of washing depends on usage. For regular wear, washing every few weeks or as needed when it becomes visibly dirty or starts to lose its loft is recommended. Always follow the care label instructions.

Does it have internal pockets?

The product description mentions front pockets and a contrast zip pocket on the sleeve. It does not specify internal pockets. Please refer to the product imagery or description for full pocket details.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm over time.

This can happen if the padding clumps. Ensure you are tumble drying on low heat with dryer balls to redistribute the insulation evenly. Also, check that the jacket is fully dry after washing.

Zipper gets stuck or snags frequently.

Check if any fabric is caught in the zipper teeth. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper. For persistent stiffness, you can try rubbing a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant along the teeth.

Water isn't beading off the surface.

While this jacket isn't waterproof, the fabric has some water repellency. If it seems to be absorbing water more, it might be due to dirt buildup. Proper washing as per care instructions should help restore some of its original water-resistant properties.

Slight pilling on the fabric surface.

Pilling can occur with wear, especially in high-friction areas. Use a fabric shaver or a pilling comb to gently remove pills and restore the smooth appearance of the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care\n\n### Setup\nYour North Face Padded Jacket II is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. Simply put it on and adjust the full-length zipper for your desired comfort and warmth level.\n\n### Compatibility\n- Layering: This jacket is designed with a regular fit, allowing it to be comfortably worn over T-shirts, long-sleeve shirts, or light fleece layers for added warmth in colder conditions. It can also serve as a mid-layer under a heavier waterproof shell in very wet or snowy environments.\n- Activities: Suitable for various daily activities, including school, casual outdoor play, city exploration, and light hiking.\n\n### Care Instructions\nProper care is essential to maintain the jacket's insulation and appearance. Always refer to the care label inside the garment for the most accurate instructions. General guidelines for padded polyester jackets include:\n\n1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the fabric and insulation.\n2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting with dryer balls (clean tennis balls work well) to help fluff the insulation and prevent clumping. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew and loss of loft. Air drying flat is also an option, flipping and fluffing periodically.\n3. Ironing: Do not iron. High heat can melt or damage the polyester fabric and insulation.\n4. Storage: Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Avoid compressing the jacket for long periods, as this can reduce the loft and effectiveness of the insulation.\n5. Spot Cleaning: For small marks, gently spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap.
