Full details
The North Face Nuketo Wind Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and urban commuters who need a reliable, lightweight outer layer for unpredictable transition weather. This jacket offers an excellent windproof barrier that excels during light exploration and daily activities, though it is specifically designed for gusty conditions rather than extreme, heavy-duty alpine storms. Featuring a durable polyester ripstop construction and a functional hood, it combines high-performance utility with a sharp, two-tone blue aesthetic.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Nuketo Wind Jacket is primarily designed for wind protection. While it may handle light sprinkles, it is not considered a waterproof rain jacket.
What material is the shell made of?
The shell is constructed from a durable, high-quality woven polyester ripstop.
Can I wear this while hiking in winter?
It is an excellent wind-blocking outer layer for active winter hiking, provided you wear sufficient insulating layers beneath it.
Does the hood have an adjustment strap?
The hood is designed with a standard fit for coverage, providing immediate protection against wind gusts.
How should I store the jacket long-term?
Store the jacket on a hanger in a clean, dry location, away from direct sunlight to prevent color fading.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord hem feels loose during activity
Adjust the toggle on the hem to pull the cord tighter, then lock it into place to secure the seal.
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Hang the jacket in a humid environment, such as a bathroom after a shower, or lightly mist with water to allow wrinkles to release naturally.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Nuketo Wind Jacket maintains its performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the shell's wind-resistant properties.
- Drying: Air dry in a shaded area away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the synthetic fabric.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry closet. Avoid storing it tightly compressed in a pocket or pack for extended periods to preserve the fabric's integrity.
- Compatibility: The standard fit allows for comfortable layering over mid-weight hoodies or long-sleeve shirts. Ensure you choose your regular size to maintain the intended range of motion.
