Product Details:

The Nuptse is a true classic, a regular best seller that keeps you warm when the thermometer drops and  looks stylish on and off the Mountain. With 700 fill down for insulation and a sewn through construction to keep the down in place the Nuptse can handle the kind of cold dry day we dream of in winter. The cut is pretty straight; giving a standard fit ideal for going on over other layers, though the soft lining has a reassuringly warm touch even on T shirted arms. You get a pair of zipped pockets for keeping your hands warm, and the sleeve cuffs have nice chunky Velcro adjusters to keep the elements out. On the inside you get a single zipped pocket, and a thin taffeta hood rolled into the collar for emergency use.

The shoulders have a double layer of taffeta for added wear resistance, with the main body using ripstop nylon on the outside with a DWR coating to keep the down dry till you can find shelter. The Nuptse compresses well for packing or for the perfect luxury wild camping pillow, and the high loft down soon re-inflates to its full insulating height on unpacking – you can even stuff the jacket into its own internal pocket.
