Product Information

Full details

The North Face TNF Dryvent Mono GTX is a high-performance shell jacket designed for adult males who require reliable protection against rain, snow, and wind in demanding outdoor environments. By leveraging advanced waterproof and breathable membrane technology, it ensures moisture management and comfort during active pursuits; however, users should note that as a technical shell, it lacks integrated heavy insulation and requires layering for extreme cold conditions.

FAQs

Is this jacket insulated?

No, the TNF Dryvent Mono GTX is a shell jacket designed for waterproofing and wind protection; it is intended to be layered.

How should I wash this jacket?

Machine wash in cold water with a technical outerwear detergent, and dry on a low heat setting to maintain the integrity of the fabric.

Does this jacket have a hood?

Yes, it features an integrated hood designed to provide additional coverage from rain and wind.

Is the jacket fully seam-sealed?

Yes, as a high-performance shell, it features seam-sealed construction to prevent water from entering through stitching.

What is the primary difference between this and a softshell?

A shell like this is built for maximum waterproof performance, whereas softshells typically prioritize breathability and stretch over total water protection.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry on low to reactivate, or apply a professional-grade DWR spray.

Feeling damp inside despite the jacket being waterproof

This is likely trapped perspiration. Ensure your base layer is moisture-wicking and adjust your mid-layers to prevent overheating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of the waterproof membrane, always follow the care label instructions. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the membrane and reduce breathability. It is recommended to wash the jacket in cold water and tumble dry on low heat periodically to reactivate the water-repellent coating. For compatibility, the 'L' size fits standard adult builds, but always check the fit while wearing your intended mid-layer to ensure there is enough room for layering without restricting movement.
