Nike Stride

This vest made running in colder temperatures much easier to stick with. The thin but very warm lining keeps your body comfortable without adding too much bulk, so you can move freely without feeling weighed down. It has zippered and deep side pockets that hold essentials securely, so nothing bounces around or pulls attention away from the run. The reflective designs adds visibility on low-light runs, which gives more confidence heading out early or late. Overall, with how thin it is, it removes the usual distractions of cold-weather running, like being too cold, too bulky, and helps you focus on the run.

Great for chilly morning runs (50-60F) in the Bay Area. The vest keeps your core warm with mesh sidings for ventilation. Appreciate the zippered pockets and additional mesh pockets on the side for gels etc. Sizing is standard and feels light weight enough for running. The zipper pull is small so it doesn't add bulk, but that makes it hard to unzip one handed. It also gets a little caught when you pull it down by the string.

I really appreciate the quality of this running vest; Nike absolutely knows how to make running gear that looks stylish but also maintains the quality necessary to withstand the sport. It is well fitted but gives enough room to wear appropriate running gear underneath to stay both comfortable and warm when running in cooler weather. The material is high quality and I am confident that it will hold up to the wear and tear of consistent marathon training during the cold Chicago winters. Running in this vest keeps my body temperature comfortable and is also a comfortable to wear. Overall, I highly recommend it.
