Product Information

Full details

The North Face Quest Hooded DryVent Waterproof Jacket is an essential outer layer for adult female outdoor enthusiasts who need reliable protection against wind and rain on the trail. Engineered with high-performance two-layer DryVent technology and fully sealed seams, this jacket excels at keeping you dry in inclement weather while maintaining interior comfort; however, users should note that as a dedicated shell, it does not provide active insulation and should be paired with mid-layers during colder conditions.

FAQs

Is this jacket windproof?

Yes, the DryVent construction is inherently windproof, making it an excellent barrier against cold gusts on the trail.

Can I wear this in winter?

This is a shell jacket and does not contain insulation. It is perfect for winter if you wear sufficient insulating layers underneath.

Does the hood detach?

No, this model features a fixed, adjustable hood to ensure maximum weather protection.

How should I clean the jacket?

Wash it in a machine with cold water and a mild detergent. Always refer to the internal care label for specific instructions.

Is the fabric breathable?

Yes, the DryVent technology is designed to be breathable, aided by an internal mesh lining that allows moisture vapor to escape.

Troubleshooting

Water stops beading off the exterior surface

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need to be refreshed by washing the garment and applying a DWR spray treatment.

Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof shell

This is often caused by humidity buildup. Ensure you are not wearing heavy cotton base layers which trap moisture, and utilize the breathable design by adjusting layers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Lightweight and highly packable
  • Excellent wind and water resistance
  • Breathable mesh lining prevents overheating
  • Adjustable features provide a secure, custom fit
  • Comfortable brushed neck and chin guard lining

Cons

  • Requires mid-layers for warmth in cold climates
  • No underarm pit zips for extra ventilation
  • Limited to a regular fit

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these guidelines:

  1. Care: Machine wash in cold water using a technical detergent. Avoid bleach or heavy fabric softeners, as these can damage the waterproof coating.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang to air dry. Heat helps refresh the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish on the outer fabric.
  3. Compatibility: Designed as a versatile shell. It pairs perfectly with North Face mid-layers, though the regular fit allows for layering over most standard sweaters or fleeces.
  4. Storage: Always store in a dry place. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before packing it away for extended periods to prevent mildew in the lining.
