Features

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.

Co-founder Ben spent 15 years or so hustling in the tech sector and had 100 or so visits to Silicon Valley. In his travels, he noticed a remarkable correlation between billion-dollar startups and investors wearing what Silicon Valley insiders call Sweater Vests. Now we're not up to speed with the tech sector nor do we think the future will play out in the metaverse. However, when it comes to an insulated vest, we think we've got you sorted. 

And so, after many requests, we are stoked to introduce the Norbu Vest. Like its big brother the Norbu Insulated Jacket, this features our proprietary “tough arse” reinforcement, the rain-friendly PrimaLoft Insulation and the world's best zips, YKK.
We can't guarantee you'll IPO at a 20x return, but we can confirm that you'll look awesome trying.

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