Product Information

Full details

The North Face Quest DryVent Jacket is designed for adult males who need reliable rain protection during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is keeping you dry in wet conditions thanks to advanced DryVent technology and a water-repellent finish. A potential caveat is that it is primarily focused on water resistance and may not offer significant insulation for extreme cold.

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for very cold weather?

The Quest DryVent Jacket is a shell and does not provide insulation. It is designed to protect against rain and wind. For cold weather, you will need to layer warm clothing underneath.

How do I maintain the waterproofness of the jacket?

Follow the care instructions carefully. Washing with a mild detergent and tumble drying on low heat can help maintain the DWR finish. If performance degrades, consider using a specific DWR re-treatment spray or wash.

Can I wear this jacket for hiking?

Yes, this jacket is ideal for hiking and other outdoor activities in wet or windy conditions due to its waterproof, breathable, and lightweight design.

What does DryVent technology mean?

DryVent is The North Face's proprietary technology that uses a waterproof, breathable coating or membrane to keep the outer fabric dry and allow moisture vapor to escape from the inside.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash cold with a mild liquid detergent, rinse twice, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and ironing.

What is the purpose of the DWR finish?

The Durable Water-Repellent (DWR) finish is an outer treatment that causes water to bead up and roll off the fabric surface, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated and enhancing the jacket's ability to keep you dry.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is not fully waterproof.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. Check if the DWR finish needs to be reapplied. Wash and tumble dry on low heat, as this can sometimes reactivate the DWR treatment.

Jacket feels damp inside.

This could be due to high humidity or heavy perspiration. Ensure the hood and cuffs are adjusted properly to prevent moisture ingress. The DryVent technology is breathable, but in very humid conditions, some internal moisture buildup is possible.

Jacket seams are leaking.

Verify that the jacket has seam-sealed construction, which is standard for DryVent products. If leaks persist after checking DWR and ensuring proper care, contact customer support for potential defects.
