The North Face Fontanales Wind Jacket - Yellow - S

No, the Fontanales Wind Jacket is designed with DWR water repellency for light moisture and brief showers, not prolonged or heavy rain.

The jacket is described as fitting true to size for an easy, comfortable fit. Refer to standard sizing charts for men's jackets. The size S is specified for this variant.

This is a lightweight windbreaker. For cold weather, it is best used as an outer layer over insulating mid-layers such as fleece or down.

WindWall™ fabric is engineered to reduce wind chill by significantly limiting the infiltration of surface wind, while still maintaining a good level of breathability.

Locate the internal pocket, often near the hem or chest. Turn this pocket inside out and stuff the jacket into it. It should compress into a small, self-contained package.

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a finish applied to fabrics to make water bead up and roll off the surface, protecting against light moisture.

The hood is integrated into the jacket design and cannot be removed. It features elasticated trim to help keep it in place.

The DWR treatment may have worn off. Consider reapplying a DWR treatment spray or wash-in product suitable for outdoor apparel. Ensure the jacket is clean before application.

Check that all zippers are fully closed and the hood and cuffs are snug. Ensure no holes or tears are present in the fabric that could allow wind to penetrate.

This jacket is designed for wind protection and light moisture. For warmer conditions or heavy exertion, consider wearing it open or layering with lighter, more breathable items. Ensure you are not overheating due to excessive base layers.
