Customer Reviews The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Vest

I have a Nuptse vest in black from 10+ years and it's still my go-to vest every year. Looking forward to being able to switch it up with this new pink one!

The classic north face vest! Have had 3 in my life now and it never lets me down! This one comes with a hideable hood.. not sure how I feel about the hood as it's like windbreaker thinness, but I can stash it in the collar so no issues for me!

This is a warm and stylish piece. I have one I purchased about 13 years ago. It has some wear and tear but is still in excellent shape for what it's been through. This new one I purchased I liked because it's a little shorter and it has a little more of a stylish feel. Though it's just as warm as my original, it's easier to dress up (not as utilitarian as my original). A few things I was disappointed with, was the quality of the material. It definitely not the same. I wish the nylon was a higher grade. There is no lining at the collar so the cold nylon is right against your neck and face. My original had a lining on the collar almost like a very fine fleece. Also, there's a stow away hood. This is unnecessary. Overall I do love this vest. Its slightly sort and some people may not like this. I like the length. It fits true to size. If you are generally a large, get the large. I fit into a large perfectly. The medium fit but was very snug. I love the retro look however I feel like this is the only look this vest should have. It's an icon after all! No need to reinvent the wheel.

Just as i expected

Perfect. I was concerned it would be too bulky but it’s not. The shorter length makes it very cute.

Great best, amazing price on sale!!!! My daughter says it’s very warm and loves it

Warm, cute, and comfortable!

Very warm and comfortable. I work in a machine shop, so I can't wear long sleeves for safety. This keeps me nice an toasty! Very stylish and versatile.

The vest jacket fitted me comfortably in a cold shivering meeting room. I suggested to nine of my colleagues to invest one of this vest so they do not have to shiver in the meeting room anymore. Good stuff!

Love the bright colors, puffy fun style and overall comfort and fit. Just the right amount of warmth to go between no jacket and jacket days

Love the red color. Versatile style.

Very comfy vest! I usually find mediuM fits me with some room left in north face. This vest is true to size.

This vest is perfect for fall weather. Keeps you warm and comfortable. All while still having the flexibility for any occasion.

Brings me back to 1996! Super cozy and comfy, and love the new color combos! So cute!

Iove it !!! I have about 3 jackets from you guys and I'm thankful every winter I'm actually gona get another jacket I love your products they are the best!!!

this vest is pretty good! It is so warm and so light.

I have had the original vest since 1996! I loved it so much and it has been my go to vest for cold weather. My mom bought me a second one to frenshen my look!

I own two of the Retro Nuptse vests. They are my go to outerwear all season. Warm, comfortable, and stylish, I just love the vest and the great retro look. Get one!!!

Love this vest. Super comfortable! Had to size up fit was a little smaller.

This fit exactly as described. It is a little short and slightly bulky, but the exact style I was looking for. It has all the retro vibes. Very 90's.

In love with the bronze color

Casual Wear

Great stylish product. I think it firs tts. Perfect for casual wear, but since I got the gold it looks awesome with all black to spice things up. The only issue I have is the pockets are hard to unzip sometimes. And also the lining on the inside of the pockets is not fleece lined so in the winter it's cold to slip hands into it. Asides from that it's nearly perfect. Would definitely reccommend.
