FAQs

What is Nike Storm-FIT technology?

Nike Storm-FIT is a high-performance fabric technology designed to provide complete windproof and waterproof protection while remaining breathable, ensuring you stay comfortable in harsh weather conditions.

Is this jacket suitable for both boys and girls?

Yes, the Nike Academy Pro 24 Rain Jacket is designed with a unisex fit, making it suitable for both boys and girls.

What material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is constructed from 100% polyester, including 100% recycled materials, making it a sustainable choice.

Are the pockets waterproof?

The pockets are zippered to secure your belongings and help resist water entry, but for absolute waterproofing of electronics or sensitive items, additional waterproof pouches are recommended.

How should I clean my Nike rain jacket?

For best results, machine wash cold with similar colors. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on a low setting. Do not iron or dry clean to maintain the integrity of the Storm-FIT technology.

Is this jacket warm enough for winter?

This jacket is primarily designed for wind and rain protection. For warmth in colder winter conditions, it should be worn over insulating layers like a fleece or thermal top, as it does not provide significant insulation on its own.

What does 'Junior' mean for sizing?

'Junior' refers to youth sizing, specifically designed for kids and younger teenagers. It is not intended for adult body sizes.

Troubleshooting

Water is seeping through the fabric.

Ensure all zippers are fully closed. Check for any tears or damage to the fabric. While Storm-FIT resists wind and water, prolonged exposure to extreme downpours might test its limits. Ensure the jacket is clean, as dirt can impair water repellency.

Zipper is difficult to move or gets stuck.

Gently try to free the zipper by moving it slowly up and down. Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth and carefully remove it. If the zipper is dry or sticky, a small amount of graphite from a pencil rubbed along the teeth can act as a lubricant.

Jacket feels too warm or not warm enough.

The jacket is designed for rain and wind resistance, not extreme insulation. Adjust your base and mid-layers according to the ambient temperature. For colder conditions, wear insulating layers underneath. For milder rain, lighter layers are sufficient.

Pockets don't feel entirely secure for all valuables.

While zippered pockets offer good security for most items, for electronics or items that must stay absolutely dry, consider using additional waterproof pouches or cases within the jacket pockets.
