The North Face 1996 Down Jacket Brown Red | 40D Nylon Water-Repellent Wind-Resistant Puffer

• Brown Red Colorway: A rich earth-toned red-brown finish gives the 1996 puffer a distinctive autumn and winter appearance.
• Approx. 350g Down Fill: Substantial insulation is distributed throughout individual padded sections.
• 100% 40D Nylon Shell: The outer fabric uses a lightweight technical nylon construction.
• Water-Repellent Finish: A coated surface helps protect against light moisture during everyday wear.
• Wind-Resistant Construction: The shell and layered structure provide additional protection against wind exposure.
• Down-Proof Internal Layers: Two dedicated internal layers help contain the insulation and reduce migration.

Substantial Cold-Weather Fill

The supplied specification states approximately 350g of down filling across the insulated jacket construction.

Sectioned Distribution

Different padded areas are filled separately to improve control over insulation distribution throughout the garment.

High-Volume Puffer Structure

The compartmented insulation gives the jacket its substantial cold-weather silhouette and padded appearance.

Individual Fill Points

The supplied manufacturing description states that individual padded areas have dedicated access points used during the filling process.

Measured Fill Distribution

Different sections are measured separately before insulation is inserted, helping maintain controlled fill distribution throughout the jacket.

Post-Fill Distribution

After filling, the garment is repeatedly worked for approximately five minutes to encourage the insulation to spread through each compartment.

Closed Filling Points

Filling openings are sealed after insulation distribution to help keep the down contained within each section.

Supplier Fill Description

The supplied product information describes the insulation as approximately 95% down-type fill with 5% feather components.

Down & Feather Components

The supplier describes the larger soft insulating clusters as the main portion of the filling, with the remaining percentage consisting of feather-related components.

Physical Label Reference

For the exact regulated fiber and insulation terminology used on an individual garment, refer to its physical composition and care label.

Technical Nylon Outer

The supplied shell specification identifies the outer fabric as 100% 40D nylon.

Low-Bulk Outer Layer

The 40D textile creates a technical outer layer around the higher-volume insulated interior without requiring an excessively thick shell.

Protective Coating

A surface coating is applied to enhance resistance against light moisture and wind exposure.

Water-Repellent Surface

The coated nylon shell is designed to provide water-repellent characteristics against light moisture.

Wind Resistance

The shell and multi-layer construction provide additional protection against wind exposure during colder conditions.

Waterproofing Note

The supplied description uses waterproof terminology, but no laboratory waterproof rating or complete seam-sealing specification is provided. This listing therefore describes the shell conservatively as water-repellent rather than fully waterproof.

Multi-Layer Build

The supplied product information describes approximately four textile layers across the outer shell, insulation-support layers and inner lining.

Two Down-Proof Layers

Two dedicated internal textile layers are used to help contain the insulation.

Inner Lining

A separate lining creates the finished interior surface against the wearer.

Insulation Containment

Dedicated down-proof layers are used to help reduce feather and down migration through the outer textile.

Compartment Construction

Filled sections are closed after the insulation is distributed to support more secure containment.

Normal Down Migration

The construction is designed to reduce leakage, although occasional migration of small fibers can naturally occur with down-filled garments.

Warm Earth-Tone Colorway

The Brown Red color combines warm brown and red tones for a richer autumn and winter appearance.

Solid Upper Section

The upper portion uses a clean solid-color treatment.

Grid-Pattern Lower Section

The lower body incorporates a grid-style treatment for additional visual depth and contrast.

YKK Main Closure

The supplied product information specifies a YKK zipper for the main closure.

Custom-Molded Components

Additional hardware pieces are described as individually molded for the garment.

Detailed Finishing

Dedicated hardware helps complete the technical cold-weather appearance of the puffer.

Hook-and-Loop Components

The supplied product information specifies hook-and-loop detailing around the cuff and collar areas.

Adjustable Coverage

These components allow selected openings to be secured more closely during colder or windier conditions.

Three-Label Set

The supplied production notes reference a coordinated three-label finishing set.

Hang Tag

A dedicated hang tag is included among the supplied finishing details.

Holographic-Style Label

A laser or holographic-style label is also referenced as part of the finishing set.

The The North Face 1996 Down Jacket Brown Red pairs naturally with black technical trousers, washed denim, cargos and neutral winter layers.

For an earth-tone look, combine it with beige, cream, brown or khaki trousers.

For stronger contrast, pair the jacket with black or charcoal bottoms and dark footwear.

During colder travel or winter conditions, layer it over thermal base layers, knitwear or heavyweight sweatshirts.

Available Sizes: XS / S / M / L / XL / XXL

The supplied product information does not provide a formal fit classification or exact chest, shoulder, sleeve and garment-length measurements.

Down jackets naturally have additional internal volume because of their padded insulation construction.

For the best size selection, compare actual garment measurements when available with a puffer jacket you already own.

For exact regulated composition terminology and percentages, refer to the physical composition label supplied with the individual garment.

Down-filled outerwear should be cleaned gently to protect both the insulation and coated nylon shell.

Follow the physical garment care label for the recommended washing temperature and cleaning method.

Avoid harsh bleach and aggressive scrubbing of the coated surface.

After washing, ensure the down is completely dry before storage to help maintain loft and reduce clumping.

During drying, gently redistribute compressed insulation where necessary.

Store the jacket in a dry environment and avoid prolonged heavy compression whenever possible.
