Fits like a moomoo
Review by Peter Y. on 26 Jan 2025 review stating Fits like a moomoo
The quality and color is all great. But the fit is huge. I’m not sure if you should be sizing down by one or even two. I usually wear med jackets but it fit like XL

Stylish Vest
Review by Ashlee P. on 25 Jan 2025 review stating Stylish Vest
I had purchased this vest several years ago in a different colour. The newer model fill is not as fluffy and the quality of the material has changed.

Son loves this vest!!
Review by Connie N. on 24 Jan 2025 review stating Son loves this vest!!
Got it for my 16yo son for Christmas and he loves the style and warmth for those days that you need a layer but not a jacket. The hood is probably the only thing that is sort of useless but it doesn’t bother him as it’s rolled under and tucked in.

North Face vest
Review by Dat N. on 1 Jan 2025 review stating North Face vest
Light. Warm with a fleece or hoodie underneath. A bit big for me (I’m kinda in between sizes) but decided to keep size Medium.

A retro and puffy look, wih classic warmth.
The Men’s 1996 RETRO NUPTSE Vest is a boxy puffer inspired by The North Face’s original design. This timeless insulator delivers lofty warmth thanks to deep baffles stuffed with premium 700-fill goose down insulation. The original shiny ripstop fabric shields the down-fill. A durable taffeta nylon shoulder yoke with a DWR finish provides a distinct contrast. The hood is stowable, packing away into the collar. The North Face also designed this vest to stow into one of its zippered pockets, making it perfect for travel and urban commutes. The bungee cinch hem seals out cold drafts when tightened.
