1996 Retro Nuptse Vest

Has it really been over twenty years? Take a look back in time with a little help from the 1996 Retro Nuptse Vest by The North Face. Inspired by the iconic design of the original 1996 Nuptse Vest, you can amp up the nostalgia while keeping nice and cozy. The boxy silhouette, overstuffed baffles, and original shiny ripstop fabric really hone into the '90s style while still providing durability and warmth. The 700-fill goose down that's providing you with all that warmth is certified to the Responsible Down Standard so you know that your feathers were never live-plucked or force-fed. For total sweetness, a stowable hood packs into the collar and the whole vest packs into its own pocket for easy storage.

Finally a vest that fits my slender frame. I've ordered XS down vests from other companies -- they have sized up around the middle with the rest of America, so they swamp me. This North Face Retro fits perfectly, only slightly loose, so I can put it over a regular or thick shirt or a thin jacket and it will keep me warm. Down filling is generous, as I had hoped. I've only worn it at home, but it is PERFECT, and I'm sure I won't be disappointed.

Versatile Style!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This vest is amazing!!! My wife loves the North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Vest!!! The vest is incredibly versatile and can be matched with a multitude of styles and colors. My life loves to wear the vest with workout apparel but also wears it to work with khakis and a button up. I am looking to buy my own 1996 Retro Nuptse Vest!!!! Thank you North Face!!!
