[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When selecting this, I don’t think I looked closely at the picture. The style is odd. It’s somewhat cropped, very wide and has 80’s windbreaker vibes to it. I thought it would be a comfy, cozy jacket, but it skews more trendy than that. I really like the design with the two tone black/gray fabric, which adds a little excitement. I also appreciate that it has a loop to hang from, which is something that seems small, but I find greatly inconvenient when they’re not there. The Nike logo is displayed prominently on the right side of the chest, a patch on the left abdomen and again as a swoosh on the back. The inside is mesh lined, which doesn’t lend much for comfort, but dries quickly. It only has the two layers, so it’s not a jacket for warmth. Overall, fabric is nice and seems good quality, for being a windbreaker and being 100% polyester, which is something I try to steer away from. My husband commented that he can always hear me coming if I wear it, because of the swishing noise. Since it’s Nike, I appreciate that irony. The stitching seems well intact and the zippers are sturdy. Oddly, the front zipper is a double one, for what, I’m not really sure. I can’t imagine a situation in which I’d want to zip the bottom zipper up. In my experience, double zippers tend to be more problematic than useful, as it takes more attention to get zipper teeth aligned. I do wish there were zippers on the spacious pockets though. Overall, it’s a nice jacket. I wish it was longer and narrower, which I would find more practical. I probably won’t wear it much until fall because it’s not warm and doesn’t fit under a coat well.
