Is the jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. It can handle light rain and snow, but is not designed for prolonged exposure to wet conditions.

What is the best way to store the jacket during the off-season?

Store the jacket in a breathable garment bag in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing it to maintain loft.

How do I determine the correct size?

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the jacket is dry. Down insulation loses its insulating properties when wet. Tumble dry on low heat to restore loft.

Zipper is stuck or not functioning properly.

Check for fabric caught in the zipper. Lubricate the zipper with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap.

Down feathers are leaking.

This is normal to some degree. Try to avoid pulling feathers through the fabric. If excessive, contact The North Face for assistance.
