The North Face is named after the coldest, most unforgiving side of a mountain, so it\u2019s no surprise they\u2019ve been making iconic, high-performance apparel and equipment since 1966.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In more recent years, you\u2019ve probably seen celebrities and adventurers alike wearing many of The North Face\u2019s most iconic pieces, as the brand has paved its way in street fashion. And when we think about the blend of function and style, we have to mention The Nuptse<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The History of the Nuptse<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The original Nuptse jacket came out in 1992 during an interesting time for The North Face. They were getting feedback from athletes like mountaineers and U.S. Marine Corps members to continue innovating their products, which helped them create the jacket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This jacket, which is named after a large mountain that\u2019s next to Everest in Nepal, is known for providing the perfect balance of being ultra-warm, but also breathable. Since it has down insulation, they were able to keep the jacket light and packable, and it was the first time the brand had used baffle construction, which holds the down feathers in horizontal bands to keep them from shifting or falling to the bottom of the jacket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, you can find the Nuptse in a jacket of various lengths, colours, styles and even some options for kids. They come in a variety of colour variations, so you\u2019re bound to find something to fit your style and warmth needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
