Men's Windbreaker

What exactly is a men's windbreaker?

The windbreaker is a jacket-type top that, as its name suggests, was born with the intention of protecting the torso from the wind, although its design has subsequently been readapted to a less technical use. A common feature in practically all models is the double layer. One of them is an inner layer, usually made of mesh (net) or other especially breathable fabrics, as its purpose is to wick away perspiration. The outer layer, on the other hand, is responsible for acting as a barrier against the wind. The combination of the two makes it possible to keep the upper body at a more stable and appropriate temperature. Another feature of men's windbreakers is their close-fitting design. This makes it possible to significantly reduce the body's resistance to the wind, colloquially known as the 'sail effect'. However, it is not a tight-fitting, stretchy cut, as these garments are not usually composed of elastane, or at least not in a high proportion. Instead, the most common material in this garment is usually polyester. Although the appearance of windbreakers is very similar to that of raincoats, they are not really equivalent garments. The rain jacket has the obvious function of protecting against rain, but its synthetic fabric is less breathable, making it less comfortable for running due to the condensation of sweat that occurs inside. However, some windbreakers have improved their waterproof performance and perform well in light rain. Thanks to the thin, lightweight fabrics that characterize men's windbreakers, it is common for this garment to be easily stowed in its own pouch. This detail is interesting because it allows the garment to be carried in a runner's bag, without being worn, for use before, during or after an athletic competition.

Style of this sportswear

The style of men's windbreakers is essentially technical: lightness, softness and adjustable parts with elastic drawstrings, such as at the collar or waist. They also usually have elastic cuffs and hem, effectively securing the garment to the runner's body. For all these reasons, their style is technical, for training, especially in models that combine striking and easily visible colors, such as fluorescent yellow. In some cases they incorporate reflective elements for night use. However, as mentioned above, there are also men's windbreakers with a casual and elegant design, designed to protect against the cold and wind, but not exactly to be used as a sports solution. These garments have a greater variety of pockets, especially at the belly or on the inside, and some of their elements are fastened with buttons.
