FAQs

What makes the Nuptse jacket suitable for winter?

The Nuptse jacket uses high-quality down insulation, which is exceptionally effective at trapping body heat and providing warmth without adding significant weight, making it ideal for cold winter conditions.

Is this jacket waterproof?

The Nuptse jacket is typically water-resistant due to its nylon shell, offering protection against light rain or snow. However, it is not fully waterproof and may not withstand heavy downpours.

How do I clean my Nuptse jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild liquid detergent. Tumble dry on low heat with tennis balls to restore the down's loft. Avoid bleach and fabric softener.

What is the difference between the Nuptse Short Jacket and other Nuptse models?

The primary difference is the length. The Nuptse Short Jacket features a cropped silhouette for a more modern, fashionable look, while other models may have a standard or longer length.

Can this jacket be worn in mild temperatures?

While very warm, the jacket can be worn in milder temperatures if layered appropriately or if you tend to feel cold. However, it is best suited for genuinely cold weather.

What material is the outer shell made of?

The outer shell is typically made of durable nylon, designed to withstand wear and provide some resistance to wind and moisture.

Troubleshooting

Jacket seems to have lost loft/warmth

The down insulation may be compressed. Try washing and then tumble drying on low with tennis balls to help re-fluff the down.

Seams appear to be fraying

Gently trim any loose threads with scissors. For significant seam issues, contact customer support.

Zipper is difficult to move

Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. You can try lubricating the zipper track with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant.
