Fit Tip: Fits a bit big. I am 6'2" 170 LBS. I normally wear large but I would size down to a med in this jacket. The length sits just below the waist.
I definitely recommend getting this down jacket!
Super warm,fits great! The down stays in the jacket!

Nice jacket at unbelievable price
The jacket is awesome, light, and very warm. More importantly, I got it from here for an unbelievably low price. Thanks Altrec.com!!! Now I will have a warm winter!
Great Jacket
I bought this Jacket for my husband who is 6'4" and 190lbs and the large fit perfect(he usually wears an XL). We were worried about the sleeves being too short but they fit perfect. He loves it.
Looks Great
I purchased this before winter for my son, so I'm not sure how warm it will be. It is a great looking jacket and lightweight. Looks perfect for those cold days walking around campus.
Still waiting...
for the weather to change so I can begin wearing my jacket. I did try it on once I received it and the jacket fits perfectly. I'm glad I read other reviews and purchased the Large size before I bought the jacket, as I was planning to buy an XLarge.
All in all I am very satisfied with the look, feel and price of this jacket and have already recommended it, as well as this site, to family and friends.
Don't Know Yet
Bought this jacket for my son going to school way up north. We live in Texas so we never really owned a winter jacket before. Fits great, seems warm. I can comment on my buying experience with Altrec.com. Very easy to use website. Placed my order and received my purchase very quickly. I will for sure shop and purchase with this fine company again.
Great!
Although I haven't used it in cold weather yet, a medium fit perfectly for me at 5'11 and 175 lbs. Quality appears to be good too.
SIMPLY THE BEST
i have not tried the mountain hard wear sub zero jacket but this jacket is ridiculously comfy and warm. add a shell on top and you have the best combination for a cold, wet day. i would recommend this jacket to anyone.
Toasty
Got this jacket for a ski trip to Colorado. Could not have picked a more perfect jacket for the conditions. The Nuptse, as other reviewers have noted, is toasty warm. Like wearing a down comforter or sleeping bag. The fit is nice .... not too tight to be constricting, not too big to look like the Michelin man. Very relaxed look. This jacket is NOT waterproof, I can attest to that. But it does resist light rain and snow. While skiing I started to get hot, so I packed the Nuptse into my backpack. It compressed nicely and was very lightweight. I have yet to test the durability of the fabric as far as snags and rips, but so far so good. The stowaway hood is rather lame since the jacket isn't waterproof to begin with, but I suppose it helps with wind blocking. Overall a very satisfying purchase.
Light but warm!!!!!
This jacket is light but warm. It fits great and my wife loves the way it looks on me. Delivery was quick.
Lightweight but warm.
It's great to find a jacket that not only lives up to its warmth containing quality, but is also featherweight for transportation. Outstanding!
- TNF -
I'm 6'3" @ 220 and bought the L size to layer underneath my XL Free Thinker II shell. I also wear wool thermos and fleece sweats beneath it. The fit and warmth are very good. I use the hood and pockets on my shell but if I ever decide to wear the Nuptse off the mountain without my shell the features will be very welcome.
Great winter coat!
I love this jacket, it's very warm and light, what a difference from the wool coat that I usually wear. I highly recommend this jacket for sub freezing temperatures.
Awesome Jacket - Light and Warm
Great jacket, very lightweight yet incredibley warm. I read all about buying a size smaller thant I normally wear (I'm 6'2"-225 lbs.) but decided to go with the XL anyway. Glad I did, it fits great the Large I think would have been too tight and the sleeves too short (I have ape arms). I would definately buy this jacket again.
nupst jacket
Warmest jacket ever,looks good.And you don't overheat indoors as it lets you breath. Its also very light and easy to drive in.
amazing jacket
This is a great jacket, it's so warm and comfartble. I'm on my third and i will never switch jackets, it also lokes very nice on.
bodacious!
Have had mine(or the equvilant model of) since 1976, also detachable down hood. I sent this coat in for service in 1996 basically because I was curious about the warranty. It really just needed a stich or two to repair as good as new. BUT they stiched, restuffed, rebuttoned and re-zippered. my original broke in coat, not a new one out of stock!! AWESOME QUALITY..2008 and it's still great. 32 YEARS!!!!!!! Works great with my shell if cold turns wet.. but that's just me..great stuff guys!
5 0ut of 5. On my 3rd one!
This is my 3rd North Face Nuptse jacket. The first was stolen and I finally wore the 2nd one out. I have been wearing North Face products long before the young crowd found it as a status item and North face products have always been superior to other brands in all regards. Putting the Nuptse into a North Face gore-tex shell and you have one of the best all weather jackets you can find anywhere.
The sizing is slightly large to allow for layering if needed. The length is great and the jacket has never failed to keep me warm here in the cold New England winter.
3XL is awesome
I'm 6'8" 295lbs and the XXXL Nuptse fits me GREAT. I only wish I could get it in Ignition Orange in XXXL.
The Best Down Jacket on the Market
Simply put,the Nuptse down jacket is the warmest, most comfortable jacket I have ever owned.
EXCELLENT DELIERY AND PRICE.
I AM 6' TALL AND SIZE LARGE IS PERFECT. I USALLY WEAR A VEST UNDER THIS JACKET. I WEAR THIS JACKET WHEN ITS -10 F OR 60 F. PERFECT JACKET AND IT LOOKS GREAT.
The wonderful jacket
It is the best down jacket I have ever had. I will definitely buy it again after mine is worn out.
Great Jacket!!!
I had to return the jacket to get another size and Altrec responded quickly and efficiently---The weight of this jacket is perfect for skiing with layering underneath. Looks good, easily stored and the length of the arms is just right which isn't always the case with a lot of jackets that you layer under!!!
Northface Nupste Jacket: Black and Blue
This jacket is super-warm, and it keeps you dry. The first time I wore it skiing it snowed. I never felt a shiver and I stayed dry all day. Shipping was also fast. Great purchase!
I also like the fact that it works well for winter sports or going out casual.
great buy
was realy happy with the quality of this jacket and the price would highly recommend it.
Perfect Pack Jacket
Packs down small, and is super light. The only coat I take on cold backpacking trips. Warmth to weight ratio is awesome.
One word - Awesome
Being a big guy it’s hard to find something I like. A friend had the Nuptse jacket and after checking it out, I wanted one. I looked around for the jacket and after an exhaustive search I came across your site. I spoke to Altrec's customer support rep Kyle. Not only did he get me the Nuptse jacket in XXXL - the only place I found to have the jacket in that size. Kyle also turned me on to some great fly fishing out in Oregon. Thanks Kyle.
excellent choice
my wife burned the sleeve on my last one while stoking the wood stove. couldn't face montana winter without it so ordered another. the best grab it and be warm jacket in the pile.
Great Gear!
Without a doubt, this jacket is the best all-around winter coat you can own. Putting it on after a day in the snow or sitting in a cold football stadium, this is the jacket to own. It might not be the most fasionable but its 700 down loft and light weight make it the most functional!
Overall a very nice, warm and comfortable jacket. No problems.
I bought the Nuptse North Face Jacket for my 14 year old son and he loves it. It's not heavy but very warm and comfortable. I had no problems with ordering the jacket or delivery of the jacket.
A very good jacket!
I had a Northface down jacket for 20 years and really missed it when it finally wore out. I tried a cheap $89 imitation from LL Bean and sent it back. Now I have the real thing again and am very happy!
Great deal, great jacket
Great winter jacket for the harsh Chicago winters! Looks great, feels great! Nuff Said
Excellent
My husband loves this coat I bought him for Christmas! I was nervous because I wasn't sure I got him the right jacket but he says this one is perfect. I was thrilled to find it on this site because I couldn't find it anywhere. What a pleasure to deal with!
Very Warm and ..
It's lightweight, comfortable, and warm.
Up 5 stars for a down jacket
It's a great jacket to have here in NYC. It keeps me so warm that I only wear a plain white T-shirt underneath. I suggest you get a size larger than your usual size so not to look too "puffy". If you're looking for a great down jacket, TNF Nuptse is it!
AWESOME!!!
This Nuptse Jacket is very light. You can move your arms around freely as though you're not even wearing a jacket unlike other down jackets. Don't be fooled though. The Nuptse Jacket keeps you very warm in the windiest, coldest weather.
Better than the old Nuptse--just as light and warm
This is our second Nuptse. Very light, easy to pack but fluffs up right away, really, really warm, and even has a hood. Best, this comes in a XXL--hard to find.

Nuptse Down Jacket
Great winter coat for the "New York" winters. Looks great, keeps you warm, stylish. What more need I say???
Great jacket, Excellent fit, Super warm
This is the 2nd Nuptse Jacket I've bought. I bought one last year for my girl friend just before we went to the Ice Hotel in Northern Sweden (just inside the Artic Circle). The jacket is really warm, very durable and fits really well. The jacket is highly compressable and not bulky at all ... I would recommend this jacket to anyone.

Now This is Great !
First off, I ordered an X-large and changed my order to large prior to shipping. Glad I did. This Jacket is already roomy for layers. Well, its summer and trying out the jacket I know I'll love it and cant wait till I'm able to wear it everyday once the weather changes. Keep in mind that its not your typical "bubble" jacket. It's a more comfortable and less resticting fit because its less puffy and a loose fit as well. trust me, you're going to love it.

Great jacket and great Altrec service!!!
I originally bought a well-known mountaineering company's down jacket from Altrec. But it didn't fit me very well and I wasn't satisfied with the quality of workmanship. I contacted Altrec's customer service by phone and received assistance in printing the mailing label to return the first down jacket. The North Face Nupste jacket arrived a few days later. It fits me well, and the quality is great and to my satisfaction. The Nupste jacket's zipper is compatible with a North Face waterproof shell I bought a year ago. I bought this jacket in May, 2007 so I won't be wearing it until November at the earliest but I am certain it will perform well because I have owned a Nupste down vest for the past 5 years. About 2 weeks after I purchased my Nupste jacket, the price was reduced by Altrec. I emailed Altrec about its Sale Price Adjustment and was promptly refunded the price difference. I recommend this jacket and commend Altrec for its great customer service.

Outstanding jacket
I'm a college football fan and I was looking for a lightweight and warm jacket to use during those cold late November afternoons and late evening tail gating parties. The Nuptse jacket is perfect for this. it's light weight, stylish and very well made. I love it!
