North face Nuptse vests/gilets

[ChablisLover]

Hi all

Please help me.

Dh has ordered a Nuptse vest and now it has arrived he is unsure of the fit.

Are they supposed to worn tight or more relaxed? He's dragged us to the local outdoors shop to try them on to compare and I am
Confused and can't (won't) give him an opinion.

Apparently all the trendy people wear them
Tight but I don't know.

Please help. Tight or loose. He's on at me to give an opinion and all I'm doing is pros or cons. I can't decide!

Thanks

I have no idea, by my DH has one and his definitely isn't tight, although he doesn't do it up much anyway.

However, DH has one as he is an outdoorsy type, not trendy, so who knows?!

Thanks

I have no idea too.

Dh is outdoorsy too but wants to wear it with jeans etc so I am really baffled!
Think he's getting the smaller size as the one ordered does look a wee bit big!

Thanks for your reply

My DH has one and its not right, but that is not baggy either

He doesn't wear it zipped up a lot though, so it's sort of neat one when open if that makes any sense

Oh, and my DH wears his with jeans. With a shirt/jumper or t shirt underneath.

Sorry , in my first post it should be 'tight' not 'right'

I give up now!!

He should just try both sizes on and see which looks/feels best.

Then put the North Face down and try the Rab instead.

haha Abzs, I find Rab much warmer/more fit for purpose than North Face, but I do think North Face is better looking.

Thanks all.
We've sent the larger one back it was too loose at the shoulders and will get the smaller one.

The rab is lovely isn't it. Feels strange looking at these things on such a lovely day
