FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

Can I wear this jacket in the rain?

This fleece jacket is not waterproof but offers some resistance to light moisture. For rain protection, it should be worn under a waterproof outer jacket.

What type of material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from fleece, which is typically a polyester material known for its warmth and softness.

How should I store the jacket when not in use?

Store the jacket folded or hung in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing it in damp conditions to prevent mildew.

Troubleshooting

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper while operating it. If the issue persists, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Fleece appears matted or less soft after washing.

Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely. Avoid high heat drying and excessive use of fabric softeners, which can degrade fleece. A gentle tumble dry on low heat can sometimes help restore loft.

Seam is coming undone.

For minor seam issues, a professional tailor can often repair it. For significant damage, consider contacting The North Face customer service for warranty information.
