FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for winter?
They are designed for active use and offer little thermal insulation. They are best for three-season wear or as an outer shell over base layers in colder conditions.
What does the Circular Design initiative mean?
It means the trousers are designed to be easily recycled. You can return them to The North Face to ensure they are repurposed rather than sent to a landfill.
Can I tumble dry these trousers?
Yes, but use a low-heat setting to avoid damaging the synthetic fibers and moisture-wicking treatments.
Are they waterproof?
They are water-repellent, meaning they resist light rain and moisture, but they are not fully waterproof and will soak through in heavy rain.
How do I choose the right size?
The trousers are sized for specific children's age groups. Consult the sizing chart provided by The North Face to ensure the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beading on the surface
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Wash the garment and apply a DWR-restoring spray.
Fabric feels damp after light activity
Ensure no fabric softener was used in the wash, as this clogs the pores of the moisture-wicking fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the technical features, follow these care guidelines. Always wash the trousers in cold water using a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the moisture-wicking properties and water-repellent coating. Tumble dry on a low setting or hang-dry to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers. If the water-repellent finish begins to fade over time, consider using a fabric-safe technical wash or re-proofing spray designed for outdoor apparel to restore performance. These trousers are designed to be compatible with standard hiking layers and footwear, fitting comfortably over base layers if extra warmth is required.
