Product Information
Full details
The Nike Swift Jacket is designed for female runners who want to maintain their training schedule during colder months. It offers a strategic blend of warmth and mobility, featuring a water-repellent shell and synthetic insulation to keep you comfortable in unpredictable weather. While it provides excellent thermoregulation through a specialized back panel, users should note that its lightweight design is optimized for active movement rather than extreme sub-zero, stationary conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it is designed to protect against light rain and mist. It is not fully waterproof and may soak through in heavy or prolonged rain.
Can I put this jacket in the dryer?
It is recommended to air dry the jacket to protect the synthetic insulation and the water-repellent coating. If you must use a dryer, use the lowest heat setting.
What should I wear underneath this jacket?
We recommend a moisture-wicking long-sleeve running shirt or a thin mid-layer, depending on the outside temperature.
How does the sizing run?
The jacket features an athletic, form-fitting cut. If you prefer a looser fit for layering, consider going up one size from your usual purchase.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, machine wash in cold water with similar colors and use a gentle cycle.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the outer layer.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Consider using a technical spray-on water-repellent treatment to restore performance.
Feeling overheated during a run.
Ensure you are using appropriate technical base layers that wick sweat away from the body to allow the jacket's thermoregulation panel to function correctly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the water-repellent finish, ensure you wash the jacket in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can clog the technical fibers and degrade the water-repellent coating. When storing, hang the jacket on a broad-shouldered hanger to maintain the shape of the insulation. Because of the tailored athletic fit, ensure you select your standard Nike size for a sleek fit, or size up if you prefer wearing thicker mid-layers underneath.
