The North Face Quest DryVent™ Mono Cropped Jacket - White - XL

This jacket is ideal for protection against rain and wind in moderate temperatures. It's suitable for hiking, urban commutes, and general outdoor activities where staying dry is a priority.

Yes, the DryVent™ fabric is designed to be breathable, allowing internal moisture vapor to escape while preventing external water from entering. This helps regulate body temperature during activity.

Refer to The North Face's general sizing chart for women's apparel. The specific measurements for chest, waist, and hips can be found on their official website. Consider the cropped fit when deciding on length.

While the jacket provides wind protection, it is lightweight and does not offer significant insulation. For colder conditions, layer it over warmer garments like fleece or down jackets.

Machine wash cold with like colors using powder detergent. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid liquid fabric softeners and bleach, as they can damage the waterproof membrane.

'Mono' likely refers to a single color design. 'Cropped' indicates the jacket has a shorter length compared to a standard jacket, ending above the hip.

The hand pockets are zippered to secure your belongings, but the jacket itself is designed with sealed seams for overall water protection. While the zippers offer a degree of protection, the pockets are not typically considered fully submersible.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Reapply a DWR treatment specifically designed for waterproof-breathable fabrics. Ensure the jacket is clean before application.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. You can lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil (rubbing the tip along the teeth) or a specialized zipper lubricant.

While rare, if seams appear to be leaking, ensure the jacket is properly cared for and has not been subjected to harsh chemicals. For persistent issues, contact customer support as it may indicate a manufacturing defect.

Ensure you are using powder detergent and rinsing thoroughly. Tumble dry on low heat as recommended, which can help restore softness. Avoid using fabric softener, as it can degrade waterproof membranes.
