Product Information

Full details

The North Face Quest Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, everyday outer layer that excels in wet weather conditions. Its primary benefit is superior moisture protection thanks to integrated taped seams and a weather-resistant polyester construction, making it an essential choice for commuters and casual hikers. While it offers excellent waterproof capabilities, users should note that as a lightweight shell, it is best utilized as part of a layering system rather than a standalone insulated winter coat.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for winter?

It serves well as a waterproof outer shell, but you will need to wear warm base layers or a fleece underneath for winter temperatures.

Does the hood detach?

No, the hood is integrated into the jacket design for better weather protection.

How should I wash this jacket?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle using technical detergent and avoid fabric softeners to protect the waterproof integrity.

Is the jacket breathable?

While it provides weather protection, it is not highly breathable during intense aerobic activity; it is best for casual to moderate movement.

What is the fit like?

It features a regular fit, which is designed to be comfortable and allows for layering without feeling overly baggy or restrictive.

Troubleshooting

Water appears to be soaking through the fabric surface

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need to be reapplied using a spray-on treatment after the jacket is cleaned.

Zippers feel stiff or stuck

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water to remove debris, then apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket maintains its water-repellent properties, keep the zippers fully closed when not in use to avoid strain. When cleaning, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild technical detergent—avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-resistant treatment from the fabric. After washing, tumble dry on a low setting or air dry away from direct heat sources. Because of its regular fit, the jacket is highly compatible with standard-sized base layers or light hoodies. For travel, the jacket can be folded tightly without occupying significant space in your luggage.
