Maximum cold protection! | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
This is truly one of the best buys I have ever made in terms of outdoor gear/clothing. I have had this jacket for over 10 years (men's size S because I don't think they made womens 10 years ago) with no problems in workmanship or quality. I take it almost everywhere I go in the CO backcountry in all seasons as I get cold easily and quickly. It doesn't matter how cold you are...you put this on and you are toasty warm in 5 minutes max! In winter conditions, it is warmer than any other layer when you pair it with a shell. I have worn it in this configuration comfortably in both below-zero and cold/wet conditions. I wear it by itself for spring skiing with one thin wool layer under it. In the summer, I wear it in the morning and evenings in camp and use it as my pillow in the tent. I carry it in my pack for long climbs/hikes on the 14ers (it packs down to the size of one of those mini-watermelons). It's only weakness as a stand-alone jacket is wetness - but this goes for any down-filled thing. The "won't this make me look fat" girl instinct in you may be averse to the poofy look of it, but this is for function - it's the poofiness that provides for the lovely pillow of stationary warm air around your body. Finally...DO NOT fall for buying a cheaper jacket with a lower down "fill count"...it WILL be inferior! | |

Great jacket! | |

| My Nuptse Jacket just got stolen a week or so ago, and I was very upset about it. I like the jacket so much I ordered a new one from Altrec. Lucky for me, it was on sale! I like this jacket alot for medium cold weather - like 25 - 45 degrees. I have a heavier, longer, down jacket (that covers my rear end) with a built in goretex shell for the coldest weather. For most people this jacket would be fine in most cold conditions - I just get cold more easily than other people. It is very comfortable to wear - it has a really light feel to it and it is easy to move around while wearing it. The feathery lightness is probably due to the high quality 700 fill down. I am very tall (for a female) so I have a large to get the most coverage. It is a short jacket as jackets go, but that only matters if you are 5'10" like me. The sleeve length is fine. The handwarmer pockets zip, which is important in keeping your keys from falling out. You could wear a shell over this for rain/snow protection. I tend to wear it every day in winter - it became my favorite last year! | |

My favorite jacket | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| This is my first down jacket and I really love it. Before I bought this from Altrec, I determined between TNF and Mountain Hardwear. It's difficult to pick one. But after went to try on that some local stores,I inlcined to TNF because of its fabric and construction. The collar and sleeves lengths are just right. This jacket is really warm. It's my warmest and ligthest jacket. It keeps me warmer than TNF parka snapped with fleece jacket. I mostly use it in the city with less activities. It was too warm for skiing which I did last couple weeks during (probably)the coldest weekend at Winter Park, CO. However,there are still some glitches that I don't like e.g.some down poked out (but very few),no enhancement in some areas (e.g. shoulders, elbows),I could snap with my old TNF parka only on the left side,less down for sleeves. Overall, it's my favorite jacket now as it's soft, warm, and light. It also protects wind. Discount price at Altrec made me make a decision easier for my first down and the service was superb. I got mine within couple days. I also like the choice that we can return without paying shipping cost. | |

very warm and incredibly light-weight | |

| I am very satisfied with my jacket. It is warm without being bulky, which I hate, so I feel like I have freedom of movement. It seems to build-up a layer of warm air that keeps me so toasty that I find myself too hot when I go inside. I ordered the M and feel like it is plenty big and accomodates any sweaters that I want to wear underneath. I tend to buy M tops, but I do wear my clothes a bit big - I was concerned when people were saying they found the jacket to be tight with their regular size, but this has not been my expereince at all. The few times I have been out in the rain the water beads up and rolls right off. Very nice. No complaints about the jacket or the website; arrived as promised with good online tracking. | |

GREAT JACKET! | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I just ordered and received my Nuptse jacket. It is amazing. I am ALWAYS cold and this jacket actually keeps me warm. I always border sizes M or L. I went with Large and am happy, not too big in shoulders but allows room for sweater underneath and hip room. So if you are sometimes a M and sometimes a L, I would go with the large. I think a M would have been snug on the hips. Large was not too bulky as I was afraid of. I have the M Nuptse vest and fits snug on the hips. This jacket isd light jacket , you dont even know you are wearing it. Altrec is an amazing store, I used to shop another online store, but now Altrec with their better prices and better customer service will get all of my business. Great store and great prices. | |

The Neptuse jacket is amazing for cold conditions, I love it! | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I bought my nuptse jacket a few months ago and absolutely adore it! I live in a cold climate and it has kept me toasty during the winter. The nice thing about this jacket being down is that it provides warmth but you never get overheated and unlike other down jackets, it's not at all bulky or uncomfortable. I can easily wear sweaters, sweatshirts and other heavy layers underneath. I got the brownie and am so please with my color choice, it goes with everything! I’m also actively involved with skiing and it's a wonderful piece to wear on the mountain. One thing to keep in mind, you might want to go down one size from what you would normally wear. I usually wear a medium but fit easily into the small. Everyone should own this jacket, it's the greatest one I've ever owned! | |

***** MY WIFE LOVES HER NEW JACKET ***** | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I ordered the Neptuse NF Down Jacket for my wife for Valentine's Day. Shipping was fast. Quality of product was great. My wife is petite. The small size fits her perfectly. The waist has a tailored look as it tapers towards the mid-section. She loved the pockets and collar as they are lined in a soft fabric. She also like the small hidden pockets inside the jacket. We have been experianceing sub zero temps here in Iowa and the jacket keeps her so warm, she unzips to cool herself down. Altrec.com shipped the product fast (paid for 3 day shipping and had it in 2 days!). The communication between company and myself was great (never felt uncomfortable purchasing from this online retailer). Two thumbs up for the Womans Neptuse Jacket and Altrec.com. I would purchase from Altrec again. | |

If warmth is the only thing you care | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| All down jackets tend to be bulky but this is a packable one, so not too bad. This jacket kept me pretty warm with two layers when I was in Spain during winter time. One thing that I would like to see on this jacket is to have a hood. The jacket is able to resist light rain. I had problem with feathers coming out of the jacket and asked an [...] staff about this issue. She told me that all down jacket will have this issue (true, happen on my Patagonia down jacket) She suggest me try to rubber around the jacket to make the feathers go back in the jacket instead of pulling it out. | |

"The Definative North Face Ladies Jacket" | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| I am lucky enough to own this jacket! And whilst visiting home in the UK this jacket is essential, trust me....Snow, wind, whatever, the ample down keeps you super snug. It has a stow pocket inside for keeping your Kendle Mint Cake safe (if you yanks don't know what that is - Google it) and hand pockets which are real cosy. It's a woman's cut too, so actually fits around your waist, which is a real bonus if you have been wearing your boyfriends cast off jackets up until now...This is THE jacket ladies, don't even bother to look at any other styles, brands, this is only one you will need. | |

Women's Nuptse Jacket | |
| Rating: | ![]() |
| My wife is from South America and recently moved here to Chicago. I knew winter was coming and it would be a shock to her. I heard great things about North Face and decided to get her the Nuptse Jacket. I'll never forget! It came on a Friday and that evening the weather dropped to five degrees downtown. We decided to go downtown to do Christmas shopping and she was completely warm. There isn't a better way to test a product than that. The operators were very knowledgeable and very helpful. I will definitley do business with Altrec in the future. | |
