The North Face Quest Hooded DryVent Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult hikers and outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable protection against wet and windy conditions. Featuring advanced two-layer DryVent technology, this jacket keeps the wearer dry by combining waterproof sealing with breathable fabric, though it acts primarily as a protective shell rather than a heavy insulating layer.

This is a waterproof shell, not a heavy insulated parka. It provides excellent wind and rain protection, but you will need to wear insulating layers underneath for warmth.
It is generally recommended to air dry the jacket. High heat can damage the waterproof membrane and seam tape.
No, the hood is fixed, but it includes adjustable shock cords to ensure a secure fit.
Use a technical wash or mild detergent on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
The DryVent fabric is designed to be relatively quiet and flexible compared to traditional heavy-duty waterproof shells.
While it provides protection from wind and snow, it does not have ski-specific features like a powder skirt or lift pass pocket, though it works well as a shell layer.
The DWR coating may be wearing off. Clean the jacket and apply a technical fabric DWR restorer spray.
Check for debris or dirt in the zipper teeth and gently clean with a soft brush; do not force the zipper if obstructed.
To maximize the lifespan of your jacket, ensure the center front zip is fully engaged during heavy rain. While the jacket is regular-fit, allow room for layering underneath if heading into lower temperatures. Care should involve machine washing on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Always air dry the jacket to preserve the structural integrity of the seams and waterproof membrane.
