Nike Sportswear Windrunner

Sehr schöne Jacke, passt perfekt

I don’t often write reviews online… I have to take a few moments to say the Nike Windrunner jacket and matching Windrunner pants that I got are great. I was in search of something sporty to lean a bit into the athletic-leisure/fashion forward trend. I wanted a change from my common look of a polo shirt and jeans. A set for cooler weather and that came in extended sizes, as I am big/tall kind of guy. I wanted something in a classic color combo and the black color with white embroidered Nike logo nail that. I wanted something a bit more ‘dressy’ than traditional sweats and nothing with the ‘pajama look’ normal sweats tend to have. Something that with some nice athletic shoes I could wear out casually for lunch, to a sports bar, shopping and running errands. The Windrunner jacket and matching pants in black do just that! First off, they are very comfortable inside for the wearer and can be worn all day. Outside, inside, cool or even colder weather (with a thicker layer under the suit of course) these just work! I took a bit of a chance ordering online but I was glad I did. The interior is a soft comfortable mesh lining, (which if pushing into the 60 degree range especially) will keep you from sticking to the outer shell. The ribbed cuffs on the jacket and around the waist are not only comfy but really help pull off the athletic aesthetic. The pants feature a handy draw string and cuffs with zips at the bottom. Which despite not being ribbed like the jacket work in tandem perfectly. This helps ensure a semi tailored look with the tapered leg. The zipped pocket on both the tops and bottoms tie everything together nicely in a uniform look. Thus, wearing as a suit is my go to preference but as separates work great as well. Of course I do both, offering utility for my wardrobe. The shell is a nice shiny polyester which was made from recycled materials. The material has a perfect sheen and finish similar to nylon. Also the polyester is slightly less noisy than traditional nylon but very smooth/soft. The jacket also has a nice vent on the back to help regulate temperature of the wearer and adds a stylish touch to the back. In conclusion these are a great buy but admittedly are not inexpensive. However, they are of high Nike quality and should last. They even come in extended sizes! Furthermore, they look better than traditional sweats and I am not embarrassed to be seen in them either even as a big/tall guy. I can wear these with confidence out. This suit is comfortable to wear like traditional sweats and can be worn in a great variety of conditions from mild/cool to cold (with layers under the suit). They simply rock! And look sharp too! In fact I have two sets in black so I have a fresh set while doing laundry. Please Nike keep making these and making them in extended big/tall sizes. Note, the larger sizes/tall sizes do frequently run out of stock. As I work on my weight/health I will buy in one size down so long as they are available. Yup, they are that good!
