Product Information
Full details
The North Face Quest Jacket is designed for adult females seeking reliable protection during outdoor activities like hiking and urban exploration, especially in unpredictable weather. Its primary benefit is offering dryness and wind resistance through DryVent technology and sealed seams, in a lightweight, cropped silhouette for comfort and mobility. A potential consideration is its cropped fit, which may not be ideal for those preferring full-length coverage.

Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof/water beads are not rolling off
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Try reactivating it by tumble drying the jacket on low heat. If ineffective, consider applying a new DWR treatment according to product instructions.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Gently try to move the zipper. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth. Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper.
Jacket feels damp inside despite being in rain
Ensure all seams are properly sealed and that the DryVent™ fabric is not compromised. Check that the main zipper is fully closed. If the issue persists, the fabric's waterproofness may be reduced.
