The Brooks Run Visible Convertible Jacket represents a sophisticated approach to reflective running gear by combining weather protection with adaptable visibility solutions. The jacket features strategically placed reflective elements on the shoulders, upper arms, wrists, and waist that create comprehensive 360-degree visibility. The bright yellow accents enhance daytime visibility while the reflective components ensure nighttime safety. The wind- and water-resistant construction includes a durable water-repellent coating that effectively sheds moisture during rainy conditions. The unique convertible design allows the jacket to be packed into its own pocket and transformed into a reflective vest, providing flexibility as temperatures change during a run. Multiple zippered pockets offer secure storage for essentials like phones, keys, and nutrition.
The hood provides additional protection in wet weather but can be rolled and tucked away when not needed. The moisture-wicking fabric and breathable construction manage body temperature effectively during vigorous activity. The fit is designed specifically for athletic movement without restricting range of motion. The attention to detail extends to the elastic cuffs and adjustable hem that help seal out wind and moisture. This jacket serves as both a primary reflective garment and a functional weather layer, making it an excellent value for runners and walkers who frequently face changing conditions. The quality construction ensures durability through repeated use and washing cycles.
