I would not but this product again

Jacket was warm but what is disappointing is we could not get a stain out of it no matter what we tried. So much money down the drain.

I'll be purchasing different colors

I recently purchased The North Face Men's 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket, and after wearing it for a while, I can confidently say it lives up to the hype The jacket has a boxy, vintage-inspired fit, staying true to its 90s heritage. It looks great with both casual and outdoor outfits, making it a versatile piece for everyday wear. I went with my usual size, and it fits comfortably with room for layering underneath. If you prefer a more fitted look, consider sizing down. Packed with 700-fill goose down, this jacket is impressively warm without feeling overly bulky. It holds up well against cold temperatures, even in windy conditions. The stowable hood is a great addition, offering extra protection when needed. The outer shell is made of ripstop nylon with a water-repellent finish, making it both durable and resistant to light rain or snow. The quality feels premium, and I expect this jacket to last for years.

Long enough and perfect for the slopes

Love this jacket. I was worried about the reports that it's "short" I'm 5'9" with a longer torso and short legs(30-32 inseam) and the jacket came to just below my belt line. It's definitely a jacket for car camping, walks around town, etc. This ISN'T a summit series jacket and is defiantly not built as a belay jacket which I think some get confused. For me, after hitting the slopes and a bit sweaty, I pull this out of my pack, fluff it up(it folds into its own pocket and packs very small) and put it on going in and out of the lodge before the sweat get cold and drops my body temp.
