Artistically on par to what Gucci and Burberry have been preaching as of late, The North Face is one of the latest brands to pull key inspiration points from its own historic back catalog. Originally built for outdoor enthusiasts, TNF’s famed Nuptse vest has found a home with lifestyle/streetwear advocates and will likely continue to do so with new releases such as those found above.

Available in a myriad of colorways, the vest draws influence from the brand’s 1996 Nuptse vest design, although does flaunt a swarm of contemporary upgrades. Fashioned from a shiny ripstop fabric, each item features a concealed hood packed into the collar, an internal zip pocket, oversized baffles and a bungee cinch at the hem. Priced at $179 USD, you can find these new vests via The North Face’s online shop.

In case you missed it, PUMA & Atelier New Regime unleashed their Fall/Winter 2018 motorsport-inspired collection.
