Customer Reviews The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Vest

Bought this for my boyfriend. He loves it. However I think it's oversized so if you're debating between going a size up or down, I think down. He is a Large normally but the Large for this vest was too big on the bottom.

Correctly described as relaxed fit so OK if you have a gut, but if you are not overweight or you are slim you will have a tub of material around your waste. Avoid this vest if you aren't carrying at least an extra 20 pounds. Too bad too as it's a warm, well made vest.

Fits perfectly! If you live in places where there is "real winter" like Minnesota, Colorado, New York, or Washington you would appreciate the wind resistance and water resistance it has. I also bought a Columbia vest to test out which is better(like every rational consumer out there debating between cost and quality haha). Although the Columbia one is more padded in my opinion, it doesn't help when it's windy or snowing because it's neither water nor wind resistant so thereby that good padding of wall would absorbing the wind and make you feel colder.

great for day and night, i wear it over a sweatshirt, for work and lazy days. The size is good and it fits me perfectly

Great vest, which keeps me warm in extreme cold temperatures.

My husband absolutely Loves his vest, this is the second one I've purchased for him, the first one he has had for almost 5 years and still looks like new and he wears it at least 4 day a week, got him the second just because he needed a fresh one, I have purchased many other brands and style vests for him and nothing compares in fit, quality, comfort and style, absolutely his favorite.
