Is the Junction warm enough for winter?

It works for mild winters and as a midlayer. For deep cold, wear it under a shell or choose a heavier down jacket.

Does it keep you warm when wet?

Yes. The synthetic fill retains warmth when damp, which is its main edge over down jackets.

The care instructions call for handwashing and tumble drying on low. Follow the label to protect the water-repellent finish.

The Junction is lighter and less insulated, with a water-repellent shell and fleece lining. The Nuptse is warmer and bulkier with down fill.

Yes, it is listed as unisex with a straight fit. Check the size chart, as the cut runs roomy for layering.
