The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket in Cream
The Original Puffer. In Cream.
The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket in Cream is the icon in its most luminous and considered expression. The same faithfully reissued 1996 construction — the 700-fill goose down, the signature oversized baffles, the authentic panelling — in a warm, off-white cream that brings a softness and refinement to the Nuptse's legendary silhouette that no other colourway in the range can offer. The Nuptse in cream is the choice of those who want the icon to feel elevated, deliberate, and entirely their own.
Why You'll Love It
- 700-Fill Goose Down Insulation: The same high-loft goose down that made the original Nuptse a high-altitude performer in 1996 — exceptional warmth-to-weight ratio in the Nuptse's most refined and luminous colourway
- Warm Cream Colourway: A soft, off-white tone that brings an understated elegance and deliberate refinement to the Nuptse's bold baffled silhouette — the colourway that reframes the world's most recognised puffer as something quietly luxurious and considered
- Authentic 1996 Design: Faithfully reissued from the original 1996 pattern — the boxy silhouette, bold panelling, and oversized baffle construction in the colourway that transforms the Nuptse's technical heritage into something that feels genuinely elevated
- Iconic Nuptse Baffled Construction: The Nuptse's signature large, down-filled baffles lock in warmth across the jacket's full body — the construction that built the legend, reimagined in cream as something softer and more intentional
- Packable Design: Stuffs into its own chest pocket for compact storage — the Nuptse's legendary practicality in its most refined and considered colourway
- Embroidered North Face Branding: The heritage Half Dome logo and original Nuptse branding — detailing that reads with a quiet, tonal elegance against the cream shell
The original. In cream. Quietly elevated — the North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket in Cream is the most refined and considered colourway of the most culturally significant jacket ever made, for those who want the icon to feel like a choice, not a default.
