The North Face Rose Taupe 1996 Retro Nuptse Hooded Down Jacket – 700-Fill Deep Brown Colour-Block Wide-Baffle

The North Face Down Jacket – Rose Taupe 1996 Retro Nuptse Hooded 700-Fill Wide-Baffle Deep Brown Colour-Block Heritage Silhouette

One of the most sophisticated and earth-toned colourways in The North Face retro archive, the The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Hooded Down Jacket in warm Rose Taupe with deep brown colour-block hood, collar, and upper chest delivers the Nuptse’s iconic 700-fill heritage construction in the most refined and muted two-tone palette in the Retro Nuptse lineup — combining a warm rose taupe exterior across the body and sleeves with a deep chocolate brown hood, collar, and upper chest panel, a deep brown-lined interior with internal zip pocket, 700-fill-power down throughout the wide-baffle quilted silhouette, velcro-adjustable cuffs, a white TNF logo badge on the left chest, and the original black TNF storage bag — the most warm-toned and luxuriously understated colourway in the entire Retro Nuptse collection.

Key Features

• 700-Fill-Power Down Insulation – Nuptse Premier Warmth Specification – Premium 700-fill-power goose down insulation throughout the jacket’s wide-baffle construction — the Retro Nuptse’s premium insulation rating delivering exceptional loft volume and warmth-to-weight performance that fills the Nuptse’s wide baffles to their maximum thermal capacity for serious cold-weather warmth, with the 700 fill-power identifier embroidered in white at the sleeve cuff as a precise specification marker on the rose taupe exterior
• Wide Horizontal Baffle Construction – Original 1996 Nuptse Heritage Architecture – The Nuptse’s iconic wide horizontal baffle quilting across the body and sleeves — the defining structural and visual element of the 1996 Nuptse silhouette, the wide baffles filled to their full 700-fill loft volume creating the Nuptse’s commanding three-dimensional presence across the rose taupe exterior, with deep baffle shadow lines that give the warm-toned shell its characteristic dimensional richness and heritage silhouette depth
• Deep Brown Hooded Construction – 1996 Retro Heritage Hood – A full attached hood in deep chocolate brown — providing maximum head and face coverage in cold weather while delivering the jacket’s most distinctive colour-block element, the deep brown hood and collar creating a warm, tonal rose-taupe-body / deep-brown-upper two-tone contrast that is entirely unique in the Retro Nuptse collection — an earth-toned, monochromatic pairing that reads as premium and considered rather than high-contrast, the hood’s deep brown continuing from the collar and upper chest panel for a unified upper-body colour-block architecture
• Rose Taupe and Deep Brown Two-Tone Colour-Block – Warm Earth-Tone Archive Palette – Warm rose taupe across the jacket body and sleeves with a deep chocolate brown hood, collar, and upper chest panel — the most refined and earth-toned two-tone combination in the Retro Nuptse collection, the warm rose and deep brown pairing delivering a muted, luxurious colour statement that reads as equally sophisticated in streetwear, luxury casual, and resort contexts and provides the most warm-season-palette and feminine-leaning colourway in the heritage Retro Nuptse lineup
• Deep Brown Interior Lining with Internal Zip Pocket – Tonal Interior Architecture – A fully deep-brown-lined interior across the jacket body with a single internal zip pocket — continuing the deep brown colour-block from the exterior hood and collar into the jacket’s interior lining for a fully unified warm-toned two-tone architecture, the deep brown interior providing a rich, tonal reveal when the rose taupe exterior is opened and offering secure storage for essentials via the internal zip pocket
• White TNF Logo Badge – Left Chest – The iconic The North Face logo badge in white on the left chest, positioned at the colour-block boundary between the rose taupe body and the deep brown upper chest panel — delivering clean brand identification in white against both warm-toned panels, consistent with the original 1996 Nuptse design specification
• Velcro-Adjustable Cuffs – Heritage Wrist Closure – Velcro tab-adjustable cuffs at the sleeve ends in rose taupe — providing a precise wrist seal against cold air intrusion at the sleeve termination in the heritage velcro cuff format of the original 1996 Nuptse specification, the tonal rose taupe velcro tab maintaining the jacket’s warm exterior palette through to the cuff detail
• Original TNF Black Packable Storage Bag – Collector-Grade Presentation – Includes the original black The North Face packable storage bag with gold TNF logo — providing a dedicated carry and storage solution for the jacket when compressed, the branded black storage bag confirming the jacket’s authentic The North Face retail presentation and collector-grade unboxing specification
