The North Face Quest Hooded DryVent Waterproof Jacket is an essential outer layer for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who need reliable protection against rain and wind. Designed to be lightweight and breathable, its standout feature is the two-layer DryVent technology that ensures you stay dry in wet conditions; however, as a technical shell, it lacks heavy insulation, meaning you will need to layer underneath for colder temperatures.

Yes, it is machine washable. Follow the care label instructions, use a gentle cycle, and avoid fabric softeners.
It provides great wind and water protection, but it is a shell without insulation, so you must wear proper thermal layers underneath.
DryVent is The North Face's proprietary waterproof, breathable technology that uses a polyurethane coating to provide durability and moisture management.
Yes, the jacket features fully sealed seams to prevent water from leaking through the stitching.
No, the jacket features a fixed, adjustable hood designed for maximum weather protection.
Store it in a cool, dry place on a hanger to maintain the shape and integrity of the waterproof membrane.
The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the garment and apply a DWR reactivation spray or tumble dry on low heat to refresh the finish.
This is often caused by trapped body heat. Ensure you are not wearing too many layers and utilize the breathable properties of the jacket by venting if necessary.
To maintain the longevity of your jacket, always zip all pockets and the main zipper before washing. Use a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild, technical cleaner designed for waterproof outerwear; avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores of the breathable membrane. To restore the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish, occasionally tumble dry on low heat or use a specialized spray-on treatment if you notice water no longer beads off the surface. Always ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing it to prevent mildew growth inside the mesh lining.
