FAQs

How should I clean the vest?

Use a specialized down detergent and machine wash on a delicate cycle, followed by low-heat tumble drying with dryer balls.

Does the vest run true to size?

The vest is designed with an oversized fit, so consider sizing down if you prefer a more streamlined look.

Is the material waterproof?

The nylon shell provides wind resistance, but it is not fully waterproof; it is best worn as a layer or in light, dry conditions.

Can the shock cord be replaced?

The shock cord is integrated into the hem; we recommend seeking professional repair if it becomes damaged to avoid tearing the fabric.

What type of insulation is used?

This vest uses premium goose down to ensure high-loft warmth and compression.

Are the pockets deep enough for a large smartphone?

Yes, the secure zipped exterior pockets are designed to accommodate standard modern smartphones securely.

Troubleshooting

Down feathers are poking through the fabric

This is common with down garments; gently pull the feather back into the garment from the inside rather than pulling it out.

Vest loses its loft or appears flat

Tumble dry the vest on a low heat setting with dryer balls for 15-20 minutes to fluff the down.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the loft and thermal properties of your 1996 Nuptse Vest, follow these guidelines: 1. Use the interior shock cord to adjust the fit to your waist size before heading out. 2. For cleaning, it is recommended to use a down-specific cleaning agent to prevent the feathers from clumping. 3. Always wash in a front-loading machine on a delicate cycle. 4. Tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore the down loft. Avoid dry cleaning, as chemicals can damage the natural insulation. Store the vest in a cool, dry place and avoid compressing it in its storage bag for extended periods to maintain the integrity of the down fill.
