The North Face Quest DryVent Windproof Waterproof Jacket - Beige - S

No, this is a shell jacket with no built-in insulation. It is designed to block wind and rain but requires additional insulating layers underneath for cold weather.

Refer to the care label inside the garment. Generally, low-heat tumble drying can help reactivate the DWR coating on waterproof jackets, but air drying is the safest method.

No, the hood on this model is integrated into the design to ensure a reliable seal against rain.

The jacket uses a regular fit. If you plan on wearing thick sweaters underneath, you may want to ensure you have enough room in the shoulders, otherwise, opt for your standard size.

The pockets have zippers that offer protection, but they are not considered 100% submersible waterproof. It is best to keep sensitive electronics in a dry bag inside the pocket.

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket to remove dirt and apply a technical fabric water-repellent spray or wash-in treatment.

This is likely caused by condensation from overheating. Ensure you are wearing appropriate moisture-wicking base layers rather than cotton, and adjust your pace to reduce sweat output.
