[ I ’ ve been really impressed with the Nuketo. The first thing that stood out to me is how lightweight it feels for how much warmth it provides. It ’s also surprisingly breathable, which makes it really comfortable for everyday wear. The fit is true to size and has plenty of room through the shoulders and chest, which I appreciate since I have a broader chest. It moves well without feeling restrictive, and there ’s still enough room to wear a hoodie or other layers underneath. It ’s extremely comfortable, easy to move in, and has the clean, stylish look I expect from The North Face. I think it ’s a great option for cool to cold weather when you want good warmth without a heavy jacket. For me, the biggest standout is how well it combines warmth, breathability, and such a lightweight feel. I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review.

[ I received this product for free in exchange for my honest review. My first impression of the Nuketo was that it was comfortable and fit well. It feels like a jacket that sits somewhere between an everyday jacket and a more technical outdoor layer. I would probably consider it more of an everyday or casual jacket, but the fit and low profile make it useful for short hikes and as a layer under a shell for colder activities. I really like that it is n't overly puffy. It provides enough warmth for cooler weather but still leaves room to layer underneath or over it. I 've found it comfortable to wear for long periods and easy to move around in. The overall style is simple enough that I would have no problem wearing it around town, but it still works well for outdoor use. The DWR finish is nice for light moisture, especially when wearing it as an outer layer. I also like the feel of the outer fabric and stitching. They seem more durable than some of the lightweight materials I 've used on other insulated jackets. I 've had other puffy jackets get small rips or punctures pretty easily, so I would have less concern about stuffing the Nuketo into a backpack on an overnight trip and having it catch on a zipper or something sharp. I have n't had the jacket long enough to comment on long term durability or how it will perform through multiple seasons, but I can see myself using it regularly through the fall and winter. For me, the biggest benefit is the versatility. It's comfortable enough for everyday wear, but still practical for hiking and mountain trips, especially when I want one jacket that can serve several purposes.

[ I recently received my new Nuketo jacket and took it to rappel a waterfall nearby to keep me dry( er) and warm. The jacket repelled the water from the waterfall while I was rappelling down, keeping my upper body nice and dry and warm. I wish there was a little bit of flex or stretch built into the jacket – It would make it even better for outdoor activities that require big movements like rock climbing or canyoneering. It does have slightly looser fit though, which helps. The cuffs around the wrist are a bit large, which makes it easier to wear layers underneath, or if you have thick forearms and wrists( which I don ’ t have). This jacket provides a medium amount of warmth, and the fit allows you to wear layers underneath if you need additional warmth. It packs down decently for not having down insulation inside. I think it's a great jacket for cooler spring/fall days and colder weather up in the mountains. On really cold days, this jacket can be a mid layer while wearing a base layer and a more weatherproof shell. I ’ m excited to wear it this fall and winter as I go through canyons and hike in the mountains. As a side note, sometimes I wear this jacket at my desk at work-- the AC in the building is sometimes functions too well and I get cold. This jacket helps me not get too cold while at my desk. If I were to make 3 changes to the design it would be tighter cuffs, a way to cinch the waist, and add some type of stretch fabric where you move the most, but that said – I still really like the jacket as it is now.

[ The North Face Nuketo synthetic insulated jacket is a great jacket for cool mornings! Lightweight and really keeps the wind out! I wore the jacket in about 60- 65 degree weather and a light breeze and you could n't feel the cool breeze! It helps warm your core up by keeping your body heat in the jacket! The jacket is asthetically pleasing, not bulky so your movement can be natural. The sizing was good I 'm 5'9, average build and I wore a large and had just the right amount of coverage for my arms, sleeves were n't short when moving my arms! There was enough room under the jacket that if I wanted to I could wear a hoodie underneath it. I 'd recommend this jacket as a everyday jacket for the Fall or Spring temperatures, wearing it to go to work or run errands. I 'd even recommend this jacket to people going camping or recreating outdoors in cooler high elevation areas during the summer, like the mountains here in Colorado, where temperatures are upper 40s low 50s but then warm up during the day. This is a great jacket to wear if you need to stop the wind and just keep your core warm but you do n't need a huge jacket! I have not wore it in rain yet but I think it 'd be ok for light sprinkle rain, not downpour rain! Thanks to The North Face and Expertvoice for giving me this jacket to test out in exchange for my honest review.
