Inspired by The North Face’s 1996 Nuptse, the 1996 Retro Nuptse Vest brings throwback style to the look and is versatile enough for adventures around the city or on the trail. Its lofty goose down insulation traps your body heat for reliable warmth on cold winter days, and the durable face fabric is water-resistant to keep you dry if flakes start to fall. The hood protects your face from the wind, but can be easily stowed into the collar when the weather is fair, while an adjustable hem cinch blocks chilly air from entering your layers.
