Since its debut in 90s, the iconic Nuptse Jacket has gone mostly unchanged, but now The North Face has completely overhauled the classic silhouette along with several of its other legacy pieces as part of the RMST Collection.Īs an abbreviation for remastered, the new RMST Nuptse Jacket combines classic elements that define the Nuptse with modern, more advanced materials and construction that simply make for a better jacket. You'll find it in a variety of colorways, so you can pick your favorite color or collect multiples for different outfits.
It's stood the test of time and looks just as good today. Overall, The North Face Nuptse has been one of the most timeless winter jackets over the last three decades. The most impressive feature is that the entire jacket packs into its own pocket for compact storage - something most winter jackets can't do. The design also includes useful weather-blocking additions like a bungee cinched hem, Velcro wrist cuffs, and a packable hood in the collar. Its distinct boxy cut and large insulated baffles give it that classic puffer coat look with real functionality. The 1996 version became a fan favorite and could be spotted anywhere from mountain peaks to city streets. Named after a mountain in the Central Himalayas, it was designed to be super warm, relatively lightweight, and durable enough to handle harsh cold-weather climates. The North Face Nuptse Jacket was originally released in 1992 as a top-of-the-line jacket for cold-weather mountain climbers. Overall, the HMLYN Down Parka is a great choice for people who love the look of burly parkas like the original Himalayan Down Parka, but have no intentions of scaling any mountains.
The jacket features 550-fill power down, durable water-resistant coating, adjustable cords on the hem and hood, and plenty of interior and exterior storage pockets.Ĭompared to The North Face Nuptse Jacket (the next pick in this guide), which has a higher fill power of 700, the HMLYN Down Parka still delivers exceptional warmth because of its longer fit, higher collar, and better-insulated hood.
And in true-to-the-brand fashion, you'll be able to choose from a variety of colors. Despite being a new style, it captures the retro look and feel of classic The North Face outerwear with large down-filled baffles and color-blocking. Inspired by the original Himalayan Down Parka design for true cold-weather expeditions, the HMLYN Down Parka is a toned-down version adapted for street use.
