Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"The North Face Men's Nuptse Down Vest is a classic insulator that has become a fixture everywhere from the coffee shop to the Karakoram. High-lofting 700-fill goose down pumps up the heat when a chill rocks your core, and the compressible design stows in the vest's interior pocket when you're on the move."

From Oregon Mountain Community:
"The North Face Nuptse Vest is a high-loft down vest ideal as either a layering piece or as an outer layer when you need just a little extra warmth. 700 fill goose down makes the Nuptse Vest both incredibly warm and lightweight and an extra layer of Taffeta on the shoulders creates both a unique look and increased durability.

"I have found this vest very warm and it can be used on many different situations. I live in Finland, and this winter it has been extremely cold, the temperature has dropped below -25 C. But with Pumori Fleece and Nuptse vest under my TNF Mountain jacket it was feeling fine."

"This vest is comparable to a human toaster. I've worn it on below freezing days with nothing but a T-shirt, my arms somehow even stayed warm due to my body overheating. Keep in mind that I happen to produce heat like a furnace, but this jacket would keep even the most reptilian of buyers warm."

"I am very pleased with the vest. It's exceptionaly warm and windproof (or at least highly wind resistant). The one flaw is that feathers may come out of the seams and lining but it's not enough to make a difference."

"This vest is worth its weight in gold! I find it extremely useful when I am in my bag after a day of hiking. When temperatures drop this vest acts like a heater. Extremely too hot to hike or climb in but it serves its purpose when the day is done!"
