Dynafit DNA Wind Jacket - 2023
Battling wind on a run isn't just annoying; it's mentally taxing and potentially dangerous. Dynafit has prepared a solution with the DNA Wind jacket, which resists wind and repels water. To keep you from getting soggy with sweat, the back panel is breathable for better heat regulation. This zipped jacket includes enough material to soften a stiff breeze while remaining light enough to remain stashed in a running vest until you've crested treeline. Unlike GoreTex, the polyamide main is breathable from the inside, allowing humidity to pass through, and the snug, stretchy fit won't flap around when the next wind squall strikes. If you've been relying on heavy shells or simply powering through the wind on your runs, a simple yet effective top like Dynafit's DNA Wind jacket will go a long way toward a comfortable and safe time in the mountains.
- Blend of polyamide, polyester, and elastane provides solid resistance against wind and rain while also being breathable.
- Extremely lightweight construction makes "Should I bring this?" an easy decision.
- Elastane stretch inserts don't bunch or restrict movement, which is a must for runners.
- Reflective details attract the attention of aid station volunteers.
