Is the Nuptse 700 warm?

How much is a downpayment at Nuptse?
The Nuptse’s most cherished feature is arguably its cozy down that protects the wearer from the cold. The 1992 Nuptse employs a 700-fill down that is packed snugly into baffles (the individual puffy sections that stop the insulation falling to the bottom of the jacket and exposing the shoulders).
Is North Face Nuptse good for winter?
Overall, this Nuptse jacket is exactly what you’d expect; great quality, warm and comfortable. It runs true to size but I’d recommend going up one if you’re heading to the snow as you’ll want the room to wear base layers and hoodies etc under there. Check out our full range of The North Face and Nuptse Jackets.

The Nutpse is, however, made from durable fabrics and provides 700 fill down for reasonable warmth in a classic look.

How do I know if my Nuptse is real?
The authentic has rounded corners, while the fake is straight with sharp corners. Apart from that, try to examine the text stamped on the metal part of the tag. It should be well visible, and, as you can see on the fake VS real Nuptse jacket comparison, the letters should also be a little wider.
Is 700 down warm?
Jackets that are insulated with 700-900 fill power down are usually warmer, but they are much harder to find. And these are usually jackets designed for some extreme weather conditions. If you are looking to get a warm winter jacket, look for anything with 550 fill power and above.
