It features a water-resistant finish but is not seam-sealed or fully waterproof. It is best suited for dry cold or light precipitation.
Light rain or snow is generally fine, but for heavy, prolonged rain, you should wear a waterproof shell over the jacket.
Yes, it features an attached three-piece hood that stows away inside the collar.
The jacket can be turned inside out and stowed into its right-hand pocket.
Yes, the jacket uses ethically sourced goose down with a 700-fill rating.
It is designed to snap into compatible Triclimate-enabled GORE-TEX mountain jackets using the internal loops.
Wash the jacket according to care instructions and tumble dry on low with tennis balls to fluff the down.
Avoid pulling the feather; instead, gently pull the fabric from the opposite side to coax the down back inside.
To maintain the jacket's loft and performance, machine wash at 40 degrees Celsius using a gentle cycle. Always ensure pockets are emptied and zippers are closed before washing. Tumble dry on low heat, ideally with a few clean tennis balls, to help redistribute the down and restore the jacket's original puffiness. To utilize the Triclimate feature, align the snap loops located at the inner cuffs and collar of the Nuptse with the corresponding attachment points on a compatible The North Face Mountain Jacket. For a custom fit, use the internal hem shock cord to adjust the bottom opening and prevent cold air from drafting up your back.
