FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Cyclone Colour Block Jacket is wind-resistant and offers protection against light showers, but it is not fully waterproof. It is designed primarily to block wind.
What is WindWall technology?
WindWall is a proprietary The North Face technology that significantly reduces wind chill while maintaining breathability. It acts as a barrier against the wind.
Can this jacket be worn in the rain?
It can withstand light rain or drizzle due to its durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, but it is not designed for heavy or prolonged rainfall.
How should I choose the correct size?
Refer to The North Face's official size chart for juniors' apparel. Measure your child's chest, waist, and height to find the best fit, considering that it is a standard-fit jacket that can be layered.
What material is the jacket made from?
The jacket is made from 100% polyester.
Does the hood detach?
No, the hood is fixed and cannot be detached.
Are the pockets zippered?
The product description mentions pockets for essentials, but does not specify if they are zippered. Typically, jackets of this type may have handwarmer pockets.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a dry lubricant to the zipper teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track.
Jacket loses its wind-resistance properties
Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and oils can degrade fabric performance. Follow the care instructions precisely. For significant degradation, the WindWall technology may have reached the end of its effective lifespan.
Elasticated cuffs feel loose
Elastic can stretch over time with normal wear. If the cuffs no longer provide a snug fit, there is no simple fix for this wear and tear. Ensure the size was appropriate upon purchase.
