Features

In Nepal, the Sherpa take on a myriad of tasks - guiding, carrying, cooking and cajoling Westerners on their journeys. When designing our new insulated jacket, these were the attributes we wanted to emulate.

Like every Cactus product, the Norbu (named after a guide during one of our Himalayan sojourns) is a simple, solid, subtle and utterly reliable product. We’ve always been about making good sh*t that lasts a long time and the Norbu is no different.

Using synthetic insulation means it is more tolerant to a bit of moisture - be it rain from the outside or sweat from within. As you’d expect, it sports legendary tough YKK zips and our proprietary “tough arse” reinforcement.

Most importantly, it was designed with our 30-plus years of engineering know-how, and all the long-lasting Cactus toughness that brings. 

Don't need the hood? Check out our (in Rob's words), "corporately smart" collared version!

Great jacket

The Norbu is lightweight but rugged. Nice and comfortable

My new favourite jacket

What I LOVE about this jacket: Its not down filled so it won't go clumpy when I wash it. Its a bit longer at the back so the rain won't soak my pants. Its not a bulky fat puffa. Its shower & wind proof - proving useful this spring. Its navy - my current go-to colour.

Norbu Insulated Jacket

Great jacket fits perfectly, also I had to change my original medium to a large and cactus didn’t charge me for the return courier cost, excellent service, excellent product!

Brilliant product. Looks great, comfortable, well made and durable. Won’t need to buy a jacket for 10 years. But when I do, it’ll be another cactus jacket.
