About Women's Rain Gear at The North Face
Whether you need a women’s rain coat for everyday wear or want something robust and reliable you can take on challenging mountain hikes, our women’s rain jackets have got you covered - literally.
From short winter strolls to long hikes on rugged trails, our women’s rain jackets keep you dry, comfortable, and protected in wet and windy weather. For seam-sealed, waterproof protection, look for a women’s rain jacket with DryVent™ Mono membrane or GORE-TEX technology. For the ultimate comfort while you explore the great outdoors, look for a women’s rain coat made with breathable materials.
Our women’s rain jackets can also be layered over our women's t-shirts. It’s an extra layer of comfort and protection while you’re on the move.
A term that's often used with raincoats is DWR which stands for durable water-repellent coating. While a coating offers some protection, there is a big difference between water-resistant and waterproof. Water resistant rain jackets can handle light precipitation, but not serious downpours. Truly waterproof jackets, on the other hand, come with features designed to help keep moisture out including taped seams and coated zippers.
When choosing a waterproof jacket, be sure to consider breathability as well. Some materials are not very breathable which can lead to sweat building up and overheating. Materials like Gore-Tex and The North Face's FUTURELIGHT are designed to allow sweat to escape without letting rain in. For the ultimate in lightweight, waterproof, and breathable rain shell jackets, look no further than our Women’s Summit Series FUTURELIGHT Papsura Jacket.
Bonus! Many waterproof and even water resistant rain jackets are also windproof. However, don't make the mistake of relying on a windbreaker in rainy downpours. They are not typically designed to handle heavy rain.
Need extra protection from wet and windy weather? Pair your women’s rain jacket with some TNF women’s rain pants like our Antora pants. Wear them as standalone bottoms or layer them over your leggings for extra warmth -the choice is yours. For active adventures on tough terrain, add some durable and waterproof women’s boots. For comfort, make sure you add a thick pair of high-quality socks.
