Is the Retro Nuptse warm enough for below-freezing weather?

Yes. The 700-fill goose down handles dry cold well below freezing, especially over a mid-layer. It is not meant for wet, slushy conditions.

How does it fit compared with the 1996 original?

It is a close revival of the 1996 cut: boxy through the body with roomy sleeves. Most buyers take their usual size, though slim builds often size down.

No. The ripstop nylon shell sheds light wind and drizzle but is not waterproof. Wear a shell over it in rain or heavy wet snow.

When is the best time to buy it?

Prices swing widely through the season, so watch for drops after early-season demand fades.

Can it be machine washed?

Yes, on a gentle cycle with down detergent, then tumble low with dryer balls. Avoid regular detergent, which strips the down's oils.
