- How warm is the Nuptse Down Parka?
- It is filled with 700-fill-power goose down in a long, baffled body, so it handles below-freezing city cold well. It is warmer than the standard short Nuptse jacket because it covers the thighs.
- Is it waterproof?
- No. The ripstop shell has a water-repellent finish for light snow and drizzle, but it is not a waterproof membrane. In steady rain, wear a shell over it or choose a waterproof parka.
- How does it compare with the short Nuptse jacket?
- Same 700-fill down and baffle look, but the parka adds length to the thighs and a longer body. It is heavier and bulkier as a result.
- What is the fit like?
- It runs roomy and boxy, with space for a sweater or blazer underneath. Those who want a trim silhouette should consider sizing down.
- How should I care for the down?
- Wash it sparingly with a down-specific detergent and tumble dry low with dryer balls to restore loft. Avoid fabric softener and store it loosely, not compressed.
