Our running jackets make every run better, stay dry, stay warm, stay stylish

Our running jackets are designed to enhance each of your running experiences, regardless of the weather conditions. With these jackets you stay dry and warm, but also stylish. Made with advanced and innovative materials that optimally protect you against rain and wind, while the breathable properties keep you comfortably warm and dry. Breathable properties are very important in a running jacket as running is intensive. The chance of an oppressive feeling is very high if a running jacket does not breathe well and is too close. In addition, the timeless designs and refined fits ensure that you always look good. With the right running jacket you are ready for any challenge and you will overcome it. Make every run a better experience.

Why choose a running jacket?

A good running jacket is indispensable for runners who like to continue working on their fitness even when it starts to get a little colder or rain. These running jackets have been specially developed so that you can continue to run comfortably even on less sunny days. There are several reasons why you can choose a running jacket, such as:

• Good weather resistance: the running jackets are specially designed to protect you as a runner against wind, rain and cold. This is often due to special windstopper materials. This allows you to continue running even in bad weather. No more excuses to stay inside.
• Extra insulation: For the colder days it is desirable that your body stays warmer (but not too warm). That is why various running jackets offer extra insulation without being too heavy. They help to retain your body heat and, because they are breathable, they quickly dissipate excess body heat.
• Better safety: Many running jackets have reflective details. This makes you as a runner more visible to other road users, which increases your safety.
• Lightweight: The great thing about the jackets is that they are lightweight. This makes them easy to take with you and put on if the weather suddenly changes.

When should you wear a running jacket?

A running jacket is mainly worn when it is still too cold outside for just a running shirt, for example during the autumn and winter months. They offer you protection against rain, wind and cold, so you can continue running even during these (colder) weather conditions. For example, the majority of running jackets are equipped with windstopper technology that gives you extra protection against the wind. But some jackets are also water-repellent and there are also variants that give you extra protection against (light) rain so that you can stay comfortably dry while running.

Do you like to run in the early mornings or later in the day? Then the jackets with reflective details ensure that you are more visible. This increases your safety during your runs.

What types of running jackets are there?

In our collection you always have a wide choice of different running jackets. When choosing your new jacket, it is important to consider what weather conditions you want to run in. For example, if you only run on days with wind, a jacket with a wind stopper is nice, or if you also run on days where it rains, a water-repellent or waterproof jacket is recommended. Therefore, take a good look at the weather conditions, but also at your personal preferences so that you can choose the perfect running jacket. There are different types available, sometimes with one of the technologies and sometimes with several:

• Waterproof jackets: These jackets are specially designed to give you complete protection against rain. Made of waterproof materials and breathable fabrics.
• Windproof jackets: This type of jacket offers you protection against the wind. They are often lighter in weight compared to waterproof jackets.
• Vest / body warmer: These are jackets without sleeves. They are often used if you want to protect your body / core extra but want to keep your arms completely free.
• Softshell jackets: Softshell jackets are versatile and offer you a balance of protection against wind and rain, while also providing warmth and breathability. They are nice in cool to cold weather where complete waterproofing is not necessary.
• Thermal jackets: Specially designed for colder weather. They have an insulating layer that helps retain your body heat better. They are breathable to prevent overheating during your intensive runs.

In addition to the type of running jacket, there are also various features you can pay attention to, such as an (adjustable) hood, extra ventilation openings under the arms or on the back and waterproof zippers for even more protection.

Each type of jacket has its own advantages and disadvantages, depending on use and weather conditions. That is why it is important to choose a running jacket that suits the conditions in which you like to run and the needs you have. This way you can get the most out of every running session.
