North Face jacket with 'flattering fit' now under £80

The North Face Women's Quest Hooded Jacket has been reduced from £115 to £79.89 in Cotswold Outdoor's sale, offering more than £35 in savings. The lightweight jacket is waterproof and windproof, making it suitable for unpredictable autumn weather.

Design and Features

The jacket is available in white and pale blue in regular sizing, and black in the plus size version. Both the black and white versions are discounted to £79.89, while the blue is priced at £85.89. Each colourway is selling quickly, with only a few sizes remaining in stock.

It features two layers of PU DryVent fabric with a water-repellent finish and sealed seams to prevent leaks. Despite the waterproof coating, the jacket is machine washable. Its lightweight design prevents overheating when temperatures rise while still shielding from the wind, making it suitable for hikes and commutes.

Fit and Practicality

The silhouette is flattering and boxy to allow room for layers, with an adjustable hood fitted with a soft, brushed-knit chin guard to prevent irritation from the zip. The cuffs are elasticated to stop draughts and rain, and there is a cinch-cord hem for a snug fit. Pockets fasten with zips to keep essentials safe and dry.

Other options include the Oysho Super Extra Lightweight Packable Waterproof 10k Jacket at £69.99 in sage green, with a longer fit and packable design. The M&S Stormwear Waterproof Short Parka is priced at £80, featuring a camel colour, utility pocket, and cropped length, with taped seams and Stormwear Ultra finish.

Customer Ratings

The North Face jacket has a 4.7 star rating. One customer said: “I absolutely love this jacket. It fits really well. The pockets are a good size and I love the colour.” Another wrote: “I was delighted to find this lightweight waterproof jacket on sale at a great price. It has all the features I need for outdoor activities and is breathable too.” A third agreed: “Good quality, nice, flattering fit. Light and very waterproof. Marks semi easily (makes sense it’s a white jacket.) but removes in wash.”

One reviewer warned: “Good Points: Wind and waterproof and yet ventilated. Over a fleece will be good when chilly. Improvement Points: The net-like lining appears flimsy and catches on anything at all with a point (e.g. finger mail jags) so time will tell if it lasts.”
