Full details
This Nike Windrunner Kapuzenjacke in blue is designed for adult males seeking a blend of warmth, style, and weather protection. Its key benefit is providing excellent insulation with Primaloft® Thermoplume while maintaining a retro aesthetic.

FAQs
What is Primaloft® Thermoplume insulation?
Primaloft® Thermoplume is a synthetic insulation that mimics the high warmth-to-weight ratio and compressibility of down, offering excellent thermal performance even when wet.
How do I know if the regular fit is right for me?
A regular fit is designed to be comfortable and not too tight or too loose. If you prefer a very oversized look, you might consider sizing up. If you prefer a very snug fit, you might consider sizing down or choosing a different model.
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket is water-repellent, meaning it can handle light rain or drizzle. For prolonged exposure to heavy rain, a waterproof jacket would be more appropriate.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold winter weather?
This jacket provides good warmth for its weight, making it suitable for cool to cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering with a fleece or insulated mid-layer is recommended.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its water repellency?
Always follow the care label. Generally, washing with a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners helps maintain the water-repellent properties. Re-applying a DWR treatment periodically can also help.
What does the 'V-shaped design lines' refer to?
These are iconic chevron-shaped panels on the chest, a classic design feature of the Nike Windrunner lineage, adding a distinctive aesthetic.
What materials is the jacket made of?
The jacket is made of 100% Polyester, both for the shell and the insulation.
Troubleshooting
Jacket not providing enough warmth
Ensure the zipper is fully closed and the hood is adjusted properly. For colder conditions, consider layering with additional warm clothing underneath.
Water beading is reduced
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Consider applying a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) re-proofer spray specifically designed for outdoor apparel.
Zipper is difficult to move
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free the fabric. If the zipper is stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a wax-based lubricant to the teeth.
