Windbreaker for Men

What exactly is a men's windbreaker?

The windbreaker is a jacket-type upper part that, as its name suggests, was born with the intention of protecting the torso from the wind, although later its design has been readapted to less technical use. A common feature in almost all models is their double layer. One of them is interior, usually made of mesh (mesh) or other specially breathable fabrics, since their purpose is to evacuate sweat. The outer layer, on the other hand, is responsible for acting as a barrier against the wind. The combination of both makes it possible for the upper part of the body to remain at a more stable and adequate temperature. Another feature of men's windbreaks is their close-fitting design. This makes it possible to significantly reduce the body's resistance to wind, which is known colloquially as the 'sail effect'. However, this is not a tight and elastic cut, since these garments are not usually composed of elastane, or at least not in a high proportion. On the other hand, the most common material in this garment is usually polyester. Although windbreakers look very similar to raincoats, they are not actually equivalent garments. The raincoat 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 windbreaks have improved their waterproof performance and perform well in light rain. Thanks to the thin and light fabrics that characterize men's windbreakers, it is common for this garment to be easily collected in its own cover. This detail is interesting because it allows the garment to be transported in a runner's bag, without wearing it, to be used before, during or after an athletic competition.

Style of this sportswear

The style of men's windbreakers is essentially technical: they highlight their lightness, softness and adjustable parts by means of elastic laces, such as on the neck or waist. They also usually have elastic cuffs and hem, effectively attaching the garment to the runner's body. For all these reasons, his style is technical, training, especially in models where bright and easily visible colors are combined, such as fluorescent yellow. In some cases, they incorporate reflective elements, for nighttime use. However, as mentioned above, there are also men's windbreakers with a casual and elegant design, intended to protect against cold and wind, but not precisely to be used as a sports solution. They are garments that incorporate a variety of pockets, especially on the belly or on the inside, and some of their elements are fastened by means of a button.
