Iconic The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse jacket in vibrant purple with contrasting black shoulder yoke and high collar. Features the signature white 'The North Face' logo with dome emblem on left chest, full-length black zipper closure, and two vertical zippered hand pockets with black pull tabs. Constructed with premium 700-fill goose down insulation for exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio, quilted box-wall baffling ensures even loft and prevents cold spots. Durable water-repellent (DWR) finish on outer shell resists light moisture, while elasticized cuffs and hem provide snug fit against wind.

Lightweight yet highly insulating, it offers comfort without bulk, making it suitable for daily commutes, weekend outings, or casual layering over sweaters. Its timeless color-block aesthetic has made it a cult favorite among streetwear enthusiasts since its reissue. Perfect for fall and winter seasons, this unisex piece bridges outdoor functionality with high-fashion versatility.
