To wash a North Face jacket, start by checking the care label for specific instructions. Generally, machine wash it in cold water with a mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach. Zip up all zippers and fasten all closures before washing. Rinse thoroughly and hang to air dry, avoiding direct sunlight. For waterproof jackets, consider applying a DWR (durable water repellent) treatment after washing to restore its water-resistant properties. Always refer to the care label for best results.
