Full details

Its key benefit is its lightweight, water-repellent fabric and UV protection, keeping you dry and shielded from the sun. A potential caveat is that while water-repellent, it may not provide full waterproofing in heavy downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The Nike Repel Miler Windbreaker Jacket features water-repellent fabric, which is effective against light drizzle and moderate rain. It is not designed to be fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy downpours.
How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?
Locate the designated side pocket. Begin by folding the jacket inwards towards the pocket, then stuff it into the pocket until fully contained. The jacket is designed to compress for easy storage.
Can I wear this jacket in warm weather?
Yes, the jacket includes breathable mesh panels and a back vent to help manage heat and airflow, making it suitable for warmer conditions where UV protection and light rain repellency are needed.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The jacket is constructed using recycled polyester, contributing to its sustainable design.
How should I clean the jacket to maintain its properties?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and high heat when drying. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat is recommended to preserve the water-repellent finish.
Are the reflective elements durable?
The reflective elements are designed for visibility and are generally durable with proper care. Avoid ironing and high heat during washing and drying to maintain their integrity.
Troubleshooting
Jacket does not seem water-repellent.
Ensure the jacket is clean. Over time, dirt and oils can diminish water repellency. Follow the care instructions for washing. Consider using a fabric refresher specifically designed for water-repellent coatings if the issue persists.
Zipper is sticking or difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently try to free any obstruction. You can also apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth of the zipper.
Reflective details are peeling or damaged.
Avoid high heat when drying and do not iron. If damage has occurred, the reflective properties will be compromised. Gentle handling during washing and drying is recommended.
Hood is too loose or too tight.
Adjust the internal bungee cord system located within the hood. Pull cords to tighten and release to loosen for a secure and comfortable fit.
