Item: The North Face Nuptse 1996 Retro Puffer Jacket - White/Black - aka "Whiteout" or "Panda" Nuptse

Shell: Matte white ripstop nylon with black shoulders + collar + upper chest. Clean color-block that gives it the "Panda" nickname. Water-resistant + windproof. Horizontal baffle stitching = classic Nuptse "marshmallow" puff.
Insulation: 700-fill down + synthetic blend. TNF Nuptse = warm but lightweight. Big baffles trap heat so it handles real winter cold without being heavy.
