Product Information

Full details

The North Face Quest Hooded DryVent Waterproof Jacket is an essential outdoor shell designed for adult women who need reliable protection against wind and rain on the trail. Its primary strength lies in its dual-layer DryVent technology, which balances waterproof performance with necessary breathability. A key caveat for potential users is that this is a lightweight, regular-fit shell designed for layering, meaning it does not provide heavy insulation on its own in freezing temperatures.

FAQs

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This is an uninsulated shell. It will protect you from wind and rain, but you must wear a warm mid-layer or down jacket underneath for insulation in winter.

Can the hood be removed?

No, the hood is fixed, but it can be adjusted for a better fit using the built-in adjustment system.

How do I clean my DryVent jacket?

Use a technical gear cleaner, wash on a gentle cycle, and tumble dry on low heat to ensure the technical fabric remains effective.

Is the jacket truly waterproof?

Yes, it uses two-layer DryVent technology with fully sealed seams to prevent water penetration during outdoor activities.

Does it have pockets?

Yes, it includes two zip-secured hand pockets for safe storage of small items.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the surface fabric

The DWR finish may be wearing off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry on a low setting to reactivate the finish, or apply a re-waterproofing treatment spray.

Feeling damp inside despite no rain leaks

Check your layering system. If you are wearing non-breathable cotton underneath, perspiration will build up. Use moisture-wicking base layers to improve comfort.

Pros and Cons

  • Lightweight and packable for trail use
  • Breathable mesh lining prevents clamminess

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket is designed for a regular fit, allowing for versatile layering underneath without restricting movement. To maintain the waterproof performance of the DryVent technology, it is important to wash the garment with technical outerwear detergent when it becomes soiled, as dirt can clog the pores of the fabric and affect breathability. Always ensure zippers are closed before laundering. After washing, tumble dry on low heat or follow the specific care label instructions to help reactivate the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish applied to the outer shell fabric. When storing, hang the jacket in a dry, ventilated area away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the synthetic materials.
