FAQs

What is Thermoball™ insulation?

Thermoball™ is a synthetic insulation technology developed by The North Face that mimics the warmth of down but performs better when wet.

Is the Terra Peak Hooded Jacket waterproof?

The jacket is water-resistant, but not fully waterproof. It can handle light rain, but it is not designed for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.

What is WindWall™ fabric?

WindWall™ fabric is designed to greatly reduce the effects of windchill while maintaining a good level of breathability.

How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?

Turn the jacket inside out, and stuff it into its left-hand pocket. Close the zipper to fully compress the jacket for easy storage.

What materials are used in the jacket?

The main fabric is 100% recycled nylon ripstop. Other materials include recycled polyester and elastane.

Is the jacket suitable for skiing?

While the jacket can be used for skiing, it is not specifically designed for it. Consider a ski-specific jacket for enhanced features like a powder skirt and dedicated snow protection.

What is the fit of the jacket?

The jacket is designed with a standard fit, intended to provide a comfortable range of motion. It allows room for layering.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm than expected.

Ensure the jacket is zipped up properly and that the cuffs are snug. Layer with appropriate base and mid-layers for colder conditions.

Zippers are sticking.

Lubricate the zippers with a zipper wax or a dry lubricant to ensure smooth operation.

Jacket is not as wind-resistant as expected.

Check to ensure the hood is properly adjusted, and that cuffs and hem are secured to prevent wind penetration.
