Been awhile since I posted something new from Nike, actually, this is a new, oldie. Nike’s humble windrunner has been around since the 1970s, and has been as popular trackside as it has been on the street. With the distinctive chevron panelling and hooded design it has been imitated on many occasions, but never bettered. For their FW09 range Nike are looking to celebrate their classic patterns and this windrunner is lined with a cotton ‘Safari’ print layer. The Nike logo design on the left is a nice departure from the straight up swoosh and could possibly even pass off as another brand altogether which I really like. With the classic swoosh normally reserved for athletic wear, this classic could easily be worn a little bit more formally than a straight up track jacket – ah, versatility. Oh, and if you’re the matching type, I strongly suggest pairing this jacket with the Nike ‘Safari’ Air Max 1’s. Jacket available here.
