Description
We didn’t just remake an icon. We brought back the 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket with the same unmistakable attitude that made it legendary—born in the mountains, claimed everywhere. Built for cold days when you want trusted warmth without extra fuss, it delivers the oversized look and loft that set it apart. 700 fill recycled waterfowl down brings serious warmth while still packing down when space matters. Ripstop fabric and reinforced collar and yoke panels help stand up to everyday wear. A stowable hood, secure-zip hand pockets and a hem you can cinch make it easy to adapt on the move. This is an icon.
