The North Face Quest Waterproof Jacket in Grey
For anyone who needs reliable protection against wet weather without sacrificing comfort, the The North Face Quest waterproof jacket in grey hits a solid middle ground. It’s crafted from DryVent™ fabric, which is fully waterproof yet breathable, making it just as suitable for city commutes as it is for weekend hikes.
Key Features and Specifications

This jacket breathes well during aerobic activities and has taped seams to keep water completely out during persistent rain. While it protects from wind and rain effectively, it's not heavily insulated, so layering in colder weather is necessary. The grey color gives it a versatile style that doesn’t scream “outdoor gear,” so it works easily as everyday wear too.
