The Best Nike Winter Coats for Men
1. Parka Jackets
Best for: heavy winter storms or extreme cold temperatures
Nike parkas feature an extended length, typically reaching the knee or mid-thigh, which makes them especially suited for braving storms or frigid temperatures. In the Nike Sportswear collection, you’ll find styles that pair tough, water-repellent outer shells with insulated inner linings that help retain the body’s natural heat.
For the ultimate plush and protective feel, check out the Nike Sportswear Storm-FIT Windrunner, which features PRIMALOFT® Thermoplume insulation, a matte outer shell that staves off rain and Nike Storm-FIT technology, which is built to resist wind and precipitation.
2. Puffer Jackets
Best for: winter sports and everyday outings
Lightweight and optimized to keep wearers toasty, a puffer jacket is a winter necessity in any cold climate. The Nike Sportswear Therma-FIT Repel Jacket, for example, features a water-repellent outer shell that keeps light rain from accumulating on the fabric, as well as down insulation that offers warmth without added weight — perfect for staying active in chilly temperatures.

3. Fleece Jackets
Best for: mildly cool temperatures
If you want the warmth of a traditional winter coat minus the bulk, go with a Nike fleece jacket or light outer layer. The Nike Sportswear Tech Fleece Full-Zip Hoodie contains a large, four-panel hood and zippered sleeve pockets to keep essential items dry. It’s also lightweight and roomy, so you can layer it over or under other garments.
4. Cold-Weather Rain Jackets
Best for: rain, sleet or snow
On those wet, wintry days when you can’t bear to miss your regular outdoor run, hike or walk, Nike cold-weather rain jackets come in handy (just be sure you’re staying safe and visible).
Many coats in the collection are crafted with a waterproof or water-repellent shield, so moisture seamlessly slides off the fabric. Layer these over moisture-wicking Nike Dri-FIT tops to help absorb sweat once the body heats up.
5. Cold-Weather Windbreakers
Best for: windy conditions
With lightweight, durable fabric engineered to repel icy gusts, Nike cold-weather windbreakers are a go-to layer for windy, winter days.
The Nike Sportswear Windrunner, for example, features a vent on the back to enhance breathability during exercise, as well as a hood with an adjustable drawcord to ensure no chilly air gets in.
