Product Information

Full details

The North Face Quest Hooded Waterproof Jacket is designed for adult outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable protection against wet and windy conditions without sacrificing breathability. Featuring a two-layer DryVent construction, this shell keeps you dry during hikes or daily commutes, though it is primarily a lightweight layer intended for layering rather than providing significant thermal insulation on its own.

FAQs

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This is a shell jacket with minimal insulation. It is designed to be worn over layers; you will need to add a fleece or thermal layer underneath for colder temperatures.

Can I put this in the dryer?

Yes, tumble drying on a low setting is actually recommended as it can help reactivate the water-repellent finish on the outer fabric.

Is the hood removable?

No, the Quest Jacket features a fixed, adjustable hood.

Does it have pit zips for extra ventilation?

No, the jacket relies on the breathability of the DryVent fabric and the mesh lining to regulate temperature.

How should I store the jacket?

Store it in a cool, dry place on a hanger to maintain its shape. Avoid leaving it compressed in a bag for long periods.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak through the fabric rather than beading up

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry it on low heat to reactivate, or apply a DWR spray treatment.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to pull

Check for fabric debris caught in the reverse-coil teeth. Keep the zipper clean and occasionally wipe with a damp cloth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and windproof performance
  • Breathable material prevents clamminess during activity
  • Lightweight and packable for travel
  • Comfortable lining and chin guard design

Cons

  • No internal storage pockets
  • Minimal thermal insulation
  • Fixed hood cannot be stowed or removed

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Quest Jacket is a standard-fit shell. To get the best performance, ensure you wear moisture-wicking base layers underneath. For care, keep the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish effective by washing periodically in cold water with a technical outerwear detergent. Always ensure all zippers are closed before washing to prevent snagging. To maintain the waterproof integrity, avoid using fabric softeners and tumble dry on a low setting if the care label permits, as the heat helps reactivate the DWR finish.
