Description

This is the jacket that made the Nuptse an icon. Built from our mountain heritage and recognized far beyond it, the Women’s 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket brings back the oversized baffles, bold shape and unmistakable attitude of the original. It delivers the kind of warmth you reach for when cold weather settles in, whether you’re moving through the city or heading out for a weekend away. Lofty 700-fill down keeps heat in without adding unnecessary bulk, and the jacket packs into its own pocket when it’s time to travel light. A water-repellent finish, adjustable hood and secure-zip hand pockets round it out. This is an icon.
