The North Face Electric Purple 1996 Retro Nuptse Down Jacket – 700-Fill Black Colour-Block Wide-Baffle No Hood

The North Face Down Jacket – Electric Purple 1996 Retro Nuptse 700-Fill Wide-Baffle Black Colour-Block Stand Collar Heritage Silhouette

One of the boldest and most saturated colourways in The North Face retro archive, the The North Face 1996 Retro Nuptse Down Jacket in vibrant Electric Purple with a black colour-block stand collar and upper chest delivers the Nuptse’s iconic 700-fill heritage construction in the most striking and chromatic two-tone palette in the Retro Nuptse lineup — combining a vivid electric purple exterior across the body and sleeves with a black stand collar and upper chest panel, elastic-finish cuffs with a white 700 fill-power identifier, a white TNF logo badge on the left chest, black dual side zip pockets, and the original black TNF storage bag — in a clean, hood-free silhouette that lets the electric purple make the fullest possible visual statement.

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 for serious cold-weather warmth across the electric purple exterior shell, with the 700 fill-power identifier embroidered in white at the sleeve cuff as a clean specification marker on the vibrant purple body
• 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 electric purple exterior, the bold baffle shadow lines amplifying the jacket’s saturated purple depth and defining its heritage silhouette at any distance
• Black Stand Collar Construction – Hood-Free Heritage Silhouette – A clean black stand collar without an attached hood — delivering the Nuptse’s defining upper-body colour-block in a hood-free format that provides a cleaner, more streamlined everyday silhouette, the black collar continuing into the upper chest panel for the Nuptse’s essential two-tone architecture while keeping the electric purple body as the jacket’s dominant visual element
• Electric Purple and Black Two-Tone Colour-Block – High-Voltage Archive Palette – Vivid electric purple across the jacket body and sleeves with a black stand collar and upper chest panel — one of the most saturated and visually commanding two-tone combinations in the Retro Nuptse collection, the pure electric purple delivering a high-voltage colour presence that reads as equally powerful in streetwear, resort, and everyday luxury casual contexts and provides one of the most bold and gender-inclusive chromatic colourways in the heritage Nuptse lineup
• 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 electric purple body and the black upper chest panel — delivering maximum-contrast brand identification in white against the black panel, consistent with the original 1996 Nuptse design specification
• Elastic-Finish Cuffs with 700 Identifier – Clean Wrist Closure – Gathered elastic-finish cuffs at the sleeve ends in electric purple with a white 700 fill-power embroidery — providing a snug, seal-forming wrist closure that prevents cold air intrusion at the sleeve termination, with the tonal white 700 identifier confirming the jacket’s premium insulation specification at the cuff
• Black Dual Side Zip Pockets – Heritage Pocket Specification – Two black zip-entry side pockets positioned at the lower body — providing secure hand warming and storage in a black pocket specification that extends the jacket’s black colour-block elements from the collar and upper chest into the lower body detail, the dual pocket format consistent with the heritage Nuptse pocket specification
• 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, confirming the jacket’s authentic The North Face retail presentation and collector-grade unboxing specification
