The North Face Nuptse Down Jacket - Girls'

Diamond Blue is not Blue at all!

By Ranked #1589 - Kids' Jackets December 6, 2006

I ordered the diamond blue North Face Nuptse jacket for my daughter based on the color I saw on the web site. I had it gift wrapped. The gift wrapping consisted of nothing more that a dented brown cardboard box with a cheap crushed red string bow stuck on it...very festive. Not sure where the "wrap" was in that gift-wrap price tag. Anyway, it ended up being a blessing because I had no problems opening the box to take a peek at the color. I was shocked. It was NOTHING like the color on the web site. Instead of a cool "deep end of the swimming pool" blue it was a muted, grayish seafoamy greenish blue. Thank heavens the gift wrap was so lousy that I opened the box! No more shopping on line for me. You just never know what you are going to get and then there is the hassle of returning it. It's not worth the $ that I would have saved.
