The North Face Boys Antora Rain Jacket in Black is a 100% polyester waterproof rain jacket for boys aged 6 to 16+, made in Bangladesh. The Antora is one of The North Face's core children's rainwear styles — lightweight, packable, and built with DryVent waterproof technology with fully seam-sealed construction to keep rain out rather than simply repelling surface moisture. It has an adjustable hood, elasticated cuffs, and packs into its own pocket. It sits in the Activewear and Mini-Me collections and is tagged as non-seasonal, meaning it's designed for year-round use rather than a specific AW or SS drop. It's also available in red.

Black is the most versatile and consistently worn colourway for a boys' rain jacket — it works over school uniform, sportswear, or casual clothes without clashing, and it doesn't show the surface marking and scuffing that lighter colourways accumulate through regular outdoor and school use. For a jacket that will be worn in transit to school, on the sports pitch, during outdoor activities, and on family days out, black is the most practical single-colourway choice in this range.

Buying Advice

  • Fit for layering: The Antora is cut to allow layering underneath — a midlayer or sweatshirt fits comfortably under the jacket without pulling the seams or restricting movement. If your son wears a thick fleece or padded midlayer in winter, sizing up one age gives more room. For three-season use over a base or thin mid-layer, true-to-age is the better fit.
  • Packability: The jacket packs into its own chest or side pocket — useful for school bags, sports kit bags, or travel where weather is unpredictable. A lightweight packable rain jacket is one of the most practical pieces a boy can carry in his bag without adding noticeable weight or bulk.
  • Care: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30°C. Do not use fabric softener — it clogs the DryVent membrane and reduces waterproofing performance over time. Tumble dry on low to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating; heat helps restore the beading performance. Re-proofing spray (such as Nikwax TX.Direct) can be applied after extended use to restore full waterproofing if the jacket starts to wet out rather than bead.
