Nike Form Hooded Versatile Jacket - Black

Dri-FIT is Nike's signature moisture-wicking technology. It's a high-performance, microfiber, polyester fabric that moves sweat away from your body and to the fabric surface, where it evaporates quickly, helping you stay dry and comfortable.

The Nike Form Hooded Versatile Jacket is made from polyester and is designed for breathability and moisture management. While it provides some warmth, it is not a heavy insulating jacket. For very cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer with additional thermal base layers and an outer shell.

No, this jacket is not waterproof. Its polyester material offers a degree of water resistance against light moisture, but it is not designed to withstand heavy rain or prolonged wet conditions. For waterproofing, look for jackets with specific waterproof coatings or membranes.

Machine wash cold with like colors, turning the jacket inside out. Use a mild detergent and absolutely *avoid fabric softeners*, as they can compromise the Dri-FIT's wicking capabilities. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.

This versatile jacket is ideal for a range of activities including running, gym workouts, cross-training, and as a comfortable, sporty layer for casual wear or light outdoor activities. Its moisture-wicking properties make it great for any activity where sweat management is beneficial.

Ensure you are washing the jacket inside out. Consider using a sports-specific detergent designed to neutralize odors in technical fabrics. Crucially, avoid fabric softeners, as they can trap bacteria and reduce the fabric's wicking ability.

The most common cause is the use of fabric softener. Fabric softeners leave a coating that clogs the moisture-wicking fibers. Re-wash the jacket without fabric softener, and if possible, run an extra rinse cycle. Air dry to preserve fabric integrity.

Pilling can occur from friction. Always wash the jacket inside out and with similar fabrics (avoid washing with items that have zippers or rough textures). Use a gentle cycle and avoid overloading the washing machine.

Ensure you have selected the correct size based on Nike's sizing chart. If the fit is consistently an issue, consider trying a different size or variant, noting that fit can vary slightly between models.
