Is the 1996 Retro Nuptse warm enough for winter?

Yes. The 700-fill goose down and baffled construction make it a warm winter jacket for city and casual use. It is not a mountaineering parka for extreme cold.

It has a relaxed, boxy silhouette with a 26-inch center back. Many buyers size down for a closer fit, especially if they do not plan to layer.

No. The ripstop shell has a non-PFC DWR coating that repels light rain and snow, but seams are not sealed and it will wet out in steady rain.

Can the hood be removed?

The hood is attached, but the three-piece hood stows into the stand collar when you do not need it.

What sizes are available?

The jacket comes in XXS through 3XL. Check the size chart, since the boxy fit runs large for some buyers.

Is the shell recycled?

Yes. The body, lining and overlay fabrics are 100% recycled, and the ripstop is reinforced with solid taffeta at the collar and yoke.
