FAQs
What makes this jacket waterproof?
The jacket uses a waterproof fabric and construction designed to prevent water penetration, keeping you dry in wet conditions.
Is this jacket insulated?
The Antora Jacket is primarily designed for waterproof and windproof protection and does not typically include significant insulation. It is intended to be layered over other clothing for warmth.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to The North Face's official sizing chart for women's apparel. Consider wearing a base layer or mid-layer underneath when trying on to ensure a comfortable fit for intended use.
Can I wear this in extreme cold?
While it offers wind and water protection, it is not an insulated winter coat. For extreme cold, layer this jacket over insulating clothing like fleeces or down jackets.
What is the benefit of using recycled materials?
Using recycled materials reduces waste and the demand for virgin resources, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process and lower environmental impact.
How often should I reapply the DWR finish?
The frequency depends on usage and environmental exposure. Generally, reapply when water no longer beads up on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or extensive use in wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water is not beading on the surface.
The DWR finish may need to be reapplied. Follow care instructions to clean the jacket and then apply a suitable DWR spray or wash-in treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Lubricate with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
Jacket feels damp inside.
Ensure the jacket is properly ventilated. If the issue persists, it might indicate a breach in the waterproof membrane or that the garment needs re-waterproofing.
