I love my Retro
I bought an original 1996 Retro in 2001 when I moved to Colorado. Like an idiot, I gave it away, as I had too many down jackets. Well, last year they came out with a Yellow/Black (Not the screaming bright yellow, the more subtle yellow) jacket and I bought and I am never getting rid of it. I love th...

Very unsatisfactory
This jacket is pitiful. My husband bought one off the discount rack at a chain store, and I loved it. His is a heavyweight winter jacket, warm and comfortable.

Comments about Men’s 1996 Retro Nuptse Jacket
This is super lightweight almost feels like you are not wearing a coat. You of course no you are wearing a coat because even on the coldest windy days you are warm and comfortable. This is one of the best coats ever. It's very puffy, so in a car with a seatbelt and can feel like you are wearing to many clothes although it does compact to the seatbelt well because the insulation is so soft.
