Product Information
Full details
The New Balance Running Jacket is designed for adult female runners who need reliable protection during unpredictable weather conditions. It serves as an essential outer layer that blocks wind while maintaining a lightweight, performance-focused profile, allowing for total freedom of movement during road runs or interval training. While it excels at wind protection and layering, users should note that its primary design focus is breathability and motion rather than heavy-duty thermal insulation for extreme freezing temperatures.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The jacket is wind-resistant and lightweight, but it is not marketed as a fully waterproof raincoat.
Can I wear this for casual daily use?
Yes, its sleek, athletic design makes it suitable for athleisure wear or light outdoor activities beyond just running.
How should I store the jacket?
Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving it compressed in a gym bag for long periods to prevent permanent creasing.
Does it have pockets?
The product is designed with a minimalist focus; check the specific interior or exterior seams for integrated stash pockets.
What is the best way to maintain the wind-resistant properties?
Avoid high-heat drying and harsh chemical detergents, as these can damage the specialized synthetic weave.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels slightly stiff after washing
Ensure you are not using fabric softeners, which leave a residue on synthetic performance fabrics. Rinse again with clean water if necessary.
Jacket feels too tight when layering
Check your layering system; this jacket is designed for a performance fit. Use thinner, high-wicking synthetic base layers rather than bulky cotton items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your New Balance Running Jacket, machine wash on a gentle, cold cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the wind-resistant polyester fibers. Hang dry whenever possible to maintain the integrity of the shell. The jacket fits true to size, but if you prefer to wear thick layers underneath for winter training, consider the fit against your base layer preferences. It is fully compatible with standard technical base layers, sports bras, and running tights.
