FAQs
Are these pants waterproof?
The Speedlight Regular Pants are primarily designed for windproof protection. While they offer some resistance to light conditions, they are not classified as fully waterproof rain gear.
Can I wear these in the summer?
The windproof construction is designed to keep you warm, so they may be too hot and restrictive for intense summer heat.
How do I ensure I order the right size?
Refer to the specific size guide for The North Face and consider that the inner waistband provides some flexibility in the waist measurement.
What kind of pockets do these pants have?
They feature two hand pockets with concealed coil zippers and a single cargo pocket on the right leg.
Are the pants machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend a gentle cycle with cold water and air drying to prolong the life of the garment.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or catching
Check for debris in the coil and gently clean with a soft brush; ensure the fabric is not caught in the teeth.
Waistband adjustment feels loose
Re-fasten the internal adjustment mechanism and ensure the hook or button is securely seated.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the most out of your Speedlight pants, ensure the inner waistband is adjusted while the pants are off to find your preferred tension. When sizing, note that the integrated belt loops allow for minor adjustments with a belt if you fall between sizes. For care, it is recommended to zip all pockets closed before washing to protect the coil zippers. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water using a mild detergent, and avoid using bleach or heavy fabric softeners that could degrade the windproof coating. Hang dry the pants to preserve the material's integrity.
