FAQs

What is the primary purpose of the Evolve II Triclimate Jacket?

The jacket is designed to provide versatile protection against various weather conditions, offering waterproof, windproof, and insulating layers that can be worn together or separately.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash separately in cold water with a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Do not iron.

Can the inner fleece be worn on its own?

Yes, the brushed knit inner fleece jacket is designed to be worn as a standalone layer for warmth on dry days.

Is the hood removable?

The hood is not designed to be removed but can be stowed away in the collar when not in use.

What temperature range is this jacket suitable for?

The jacket is suitable for a wide range of temperatures, from cool, wet conditions to moderate cold when both layers are worn. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, additional insulation layers may be necessary.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to The North Face sizing charts. The XXL size is provided, and adjustments can be made with the hood drawcords and hem cinch cord (if applicable) for a more customized fit.

What does 'DryVent 2L' mean?

DryVent 2L refers to a two-layer construction that is waterproof, windproof, and breathable. The '2L' indicates a standard 2-layer laminate construction.

Troubleshooting

Outer jacket is no longer fully waterproof

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the jacket according to care instructions and tumble dry on a low setting to help restore the DWR. For prolonged effectiveness, consider applying a specific DWR treatment spray.

Inner fleece zipper not attaching correctly

Ensure both zippers are fully zipped on the inner fleece and the outer jacket. Align the attachment points carefully before zipping them together. Check for any debris caught in the zippers.

Jacket feels clammy during activity

While the jacket is breathable, intense activity can still lead to perspiration. Ensure all vents (if present) are open and consider removing the inner fleece if the weather permits to maximize breathability.
