Ranked #1523 - Kids' Jackets
January 17, 2005
The Nuptse girls' jacket is identical to the women's version, but $100 less (at least) so I got it for my 13-year old, who is determined to have what's trendy at her middle school--and North Face IS the look right now. This jacket has much less down than cheaper jackets from EMS or Columbia, it's made of lighter-weight fabric, and it's not terribly warm. (There's almost no down in the sleeves.) So I only recommend this jacket if it's necessary for the "cool" factor...
