The North Face Nuptse Down Vest - Men's

Item #TNF4251 | 0 in Stock
5 Star Rating

Toasty

By Ranked #2 - Men's Vests December 21, 2010

This vest is toasty warm but I find it a bit bulky. I would wear this vest and the Mountain Hardwear Sub-Zero all the time until I tried the Patagonia Down Sweater. It is so much lighter and less bulk that I hardley wear these anymore.

As for this vest, it will keep your core warm, no doubt about that. Great looks and has been very durable. I would lose a feather once in a while but nothing bad. Compresses down very small to store in your backpack. I found the sizing to be about the same as the TNF jackets.
