Product Information
Full details
The Nike Repel UV Running Jacket Stride is an ideal choice for dedicated male runners who need a versatile, lightweight outer layer capable of handling unpredictable weather. It provides the key benefit of water-repellent protection combined with integrated UV-blocking properties, making it an essential piece of gear for both rainy spring mornings and harsh summer sun; however, potential buyers should note that its lightweight construction is intended for layering rather than providing significant thermal insulation in freezing temperatures.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it is designed to shed light rain. It is not intended for heavy, sustained downpours where a fully waterproof shell would be required.
Can I wear this in the summer?
Yes, it is designed for summer use due to its lightweight construction and UV-blocking properties which help protect your skin.
How should I choose my size?
This jacket uses standard men's sizing. It is recommended to choose your usual size, but keep in mind it is designed for an athletic, fitted feel.
Does it have pockets for keys?
The jacket features a dedicated packable pocket that can also be used for small essentials during your run.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is strongly recommended to hang dry the jacket to preserve its technical features and fit.
Troubleshooting
Water starts soaking through the fabric during rain
The water-repellent finish (DWR) may have worn off. Wash the jacket to remove surface oils and dirt, then consider a DWR re-treatment spray.
Difficulty packing the jacket into its pocket
Ensure you are folding it according to the interior pocket instructions. Do not force the fabric, as it may cause damage to the zipper or seams.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the water-repellent coating and UV-blocking performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash the jacket in cold water with similar colors. Use a mild detergent.
- Avoid Softeners: Do not use fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the water-repellent finish.
- Drying: Hang dry the garment. Avoid high heat from a tumble dryer to prevent shrinking or damage to the synthetic fibers.
- Storage: Ensure the jacket is completely dry before packing it into its storage pocket to prevent mildew or odors.
