FAQs
Is the vest waterproof?
The nylon shell offers protection, but it is not classified as a fully waterproof garment. It is best suited for cold and dry conditions.
How should I choose my size?
The vest is designed with an oversized fit. If you prefer a more standard or slim look, consider sizing down from your usual size.
Can I machine wash this vest?
Yes, use a gentle cycle with a mild detergent specifically made for down, and ensure it is dried properly to prevent clumping.
Where are the logos located?
The TNF x SKIMS logo is embroidered on the front left chest and the right back shoulder.
Is the hood detachable?
The 1996 Nuptse Vest is a sleeveless design and does not feature a hood.
Troubleshooting
Down feathers poking through the fabric
This is normal for high-loft down. Gently pull the feather back in from the inside rather than pulling it through the outer fabric.
Vest loses its loft or appears flat
Tumble dry the vest on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to redistribute the down and restore the loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the loft and thermal efficiency of your Nuptse vest, avoid compressing it for extended periods during storage; instead, hang it in a cool, dry place. When cleaning, it is recommended to follow the care instructions on the internal label, typically requiring a gentle cycle with a down-specific detergent and thorough drying with dryer balls to restore the insulation's fluffiness. The vest is compatible with most standard casual apparel, and the oversized sizing is designed to layer effortlessly over hoodies or long-sleeve shirts. Ensure all zippers are fully closed before washing to prevent snagging the nylon shell.
