[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Jordan Woven Jacket is an updated take on the essential lightweight jacket with sustainability in mind while providing a stylish fit and optimal functionality. Beginning with the fit, the jacket runs a little bigger than I was expecting. I am 5'7" with an athletic build and usually wear a size small. This jacket in size small runs slightly larger, although I contribute this to a sportier fit. It is not large enough to go down an entire size, just slightly bigger and I would advise sticking true to size. This was not a major gripe. The materials on this jacket emphasize sustainability while also maintaining quality. With a notable sticking point in the use of at least 75% recycled polyester fibers, I felt better about using this jacket on a regular basis. The use of these materials did not impact the feel of the jacket as it is flexible and feels good to the touch. Compared to other Nike SB and ACG jackets I own, I did not notice any degradation in quality or the feel of materials. Lastly, functionality is key when it comes to any jacket. This jacket performs exactly as one would hope for it to function. I wore it out for some time during late winter and spring. Although the weather has been abrupt and unpredictable, I felt wearing this jacket during such times kept me covered. It has served well in blocking wind during breezy days; all the while doing a decent job of protecting me against small downpours as it is also water resistant. Note, it is not water-proof so do not expect to be fully sheltered in heavy rain conditions. It is comfortable while also breathable, resulting is very good utility on spring days where you might face chilly mornings and warm afternoons. Overall, I recommend the Jordan Essentials Men's Woven Jacket. My main gripe was the sizing but I am very particular about how my clothes fit. The materials feel great and comfortable, while functioning very well in various condition.
