Which trail/ultra running windproof jacket is best for you? Here’s my review of 6 lightweight windproof jackets for runners from total budget options at £13 to premium £130 products and everything in between. All weights are for a women’s size 12 jacket. (Scroll down for links to buy that give me a tiny percentage at no extra cost to you)
Which windproof do you usually run in? Type your comments below to join the discussion. And ask me any questions about these jackets and I’ll do my best to help you out.
OMM, Rab, Montane and Patagonia didn’t have anything available for me to test at the time, hopefully they will be included in the next windproof jackets test, and when I test waterproof jackets later on this year.
