Women's running jackets and sweatshirts

What can you find in women's running jackets and sweatshirts?

This page brings together jackets and sweatshirts designed for women's training, from waterproof models for running in the rain or wind to lighter jackets used for warming up, recovering, or covering up before and after exercise. The catalogue includes two main types of products: the waterproof jacket, designed to protect against bad weather during sessions, and the classic jacket, which is more versatile, suitable for outings in dry weather or cooler days.

Jacket or waterproof jacket: how to choose?

The choice mainly depends on the conditions in which you run or train. A waterproof jacket protects against rain and wind thanks to a water-repellent material or membrane, often complemented by ventilation zips to release heat during exercise; it is suitable for outdoor sessions when the weather is uncertain. A more classic jacket, without a technical membrane, prioritises breathability and lightness: it is great for warming up, recovering, or wearing over a t-shirt on non-rainy days. Some models also exist without sleeves, which are handy for protecting the torso while keeping the arms free.

Nike, Hummel and other available brands

The selection includes women's running jackets and sweatshirts from Nike and Hummel, alongside other technical brands featured in the catalogue. The Nike jackets come in both waterproof versions and softer versions for warming up, while Hummel primarily offers waterproof jackets designed for protection against rain and wind.

Other women's running clothes to pair with your jacket

A running jacket is rarely worn alone. The women's running catalogue offers several pages to complete your outfit:

• T-shirts, to wear alone or under the jacket depending on the weather.
• Tank tops, for sessions when the jacket comes off quickly after warming up.
• Sports bras, to wear with the jacket for outdoor outings.
• Shorts and pants and leggings, to cover the legs according to the season.
• Compression wear, for muscle support during exercise.
• Socks, to complete the outfit from head to toe.

When to keep an eye on deals for women's running jackets?

The price of a women's running jacket varies depending on the times of year and the site's sales events. The Black Friday is generally the first event to watch out for, followed by the holiday season and then the winter sales, a great time for a waterproof jacket before the cold sets in. In spring, the French Days come before the summer sales, while the resumption and new seasonal collections regularly renew the catalogue. To keep up with these events, you can check the Black Friday, Sales, Deals, and Clearance pages, as well as the New Arrivals page to discover jackets that have just arrived or the Shipped in 24h page if you're looking for an item available quickly.

Frequently asked questions

Does a women's running jacket perform well while also keeping warm in the city?

Yes, most jackets in this catalogue are designed for exercise but can also be worn daily. The fitted cuts and lightweight materials designed for sport are also suitable for urban use, as long as you're fine with a more sporty than city look.

Do you need to go a size up to wear a jacket over a t-shirt or sports bra?

It depends on the cut of the model: some running jackets are fitted and intended to be worn alone, while others allow more room to layer over a technical t-shirt. It's useful to check the cut listed on the product sheet before choosing your size.

Can a sleeveless jacket replace a classic jacket?

No, it serves another purpose: it protects the torso while leaving the arms free, which is suitable for sessions where freedom of movement is more important than full body protection. It is often worn as a complement to a long-sleeved t-shirt rather than in its place.

Can you run in the rain with a jacket that isn't waterproof?

A jacket without waterproof treatment offers less protection against rain and wind, although it remains windproof for short outings. For regular sessions in the rain, a waterproof jacket is still the most suitable choice.

How to care for a waterproof jacket so that it maintains its effectiveness?

Washing too frequently or using a fabric softener can reduce the water-repellent effect of the material over time. It's advisable to follow the care instructions provided on the label of the model, which are specific to each material and each brand.
