No, the hood is concealed within the stand collar and is not designed to be removed.
The Nuptse features a 'standard fit' which is intentionally boxy. Most users find it true to size, but check the size guide if you prefer a slimmer profile.
It is weather-resistant, meaning it can handle light snow and brief exposure to rain, but it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
The jacket is designed to pack into one of its internal or hand pockets. Simply turn the pocket inside out and stuff the jacket into it.
Yes, it is highly suitable for cold-weather hiking, though its weight and bulk should be considered for long-distance technical mountaineering.
Use a front-loading washing machine, gentle cycle, cold water, and a technical cleaner, followed by a low-heat tumble dry with dryer balls.
Tumble dry the jacket on a low heat setting with dryer balls to fluff the insulation back up.
Do not pull the fibers. Gently pull the fiber back into the jacket from the inside and massage the area to close the puncture hole.
To ensure the longevity of your Nuptse jacket, it is recommended to wash it in a front-loading machine on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use a technical detergent specifically designed for down or synthetic insulation to maintain loft. Always tumble dry on low heat with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help restore the jacket's fluffiness. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. When not in use, store the jacket in a cool, dry place and avoid keeping it compressed in its packable state for extended periods to prevent permanent damage to the insulation baffles.
