Shiny ripstop, oversized baffles, and 700-fill down—The North Face Men's 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket is the icon that still feels different from the average puffer hanging beside it. The 40D recycled nylon ripstop is treated with a non-PFC DWR, while a taffeta overlay at the collar and yoke reinforces the high-wear zones.
As a The North Face staple, the 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket stays relaxed and boxy with a stowable, adjustable three-piece hood and secure-zip hand pockets. It packs into the right pocket for travel, cinches down with an internal hem drawcord, and uses Triclimate™ loops for zip-in-compatible integration with the GORE-TEX Mountain Jacket.
