The Best Hooded Jackets for Women by Nike

Nike parkas are designed with a long silhouette, adding extra coverage and insulation around the legs. Many Nike parkas feature a pillowy puffer material that feels like a fluffy blanket while protecting against tough weather conditions.

Other parka styles, like the Nike Sportswear Essential Storm-FIT parka, feature a smooth, woven texture for less bulk. This hooded jacket is water-resistant and has bungees on the hood and VELCRO® on the cuffs to help secure the fit.

Choose from timeless black parkas or bright, shiny colours to stand out in wintry weather.

For a winter clothing staple that can be worn in a wide variety of scenarios—from work to the gym—look no further than a classic, hooded puffer jacket from Nike. These coats come in a range of lengths, from waist-length to calf-length.

The hoods on Nike puffer jackets are large and roomy, ensuring your face is shielded from snow or rain. Some puffers come with a detachable hood, so you can zip it off on sunny, precipitation-free winter days.

For a versatile pick, go with a reversible puffer, like the Nike Sportswear Therma-FIT Repel jacket, which has a water-repellent finish on both sides. This jacket also contains Nike Therma-FIT Technology, which regulates the body's heat to retain warmth, as well as Thermore™ Ecodown Sheet Insulation for low-profile, non-bulky insulation.

On the ski slopes or running trails, aggressively windy conditions are challenging for even the toughest of athletes. A Nike hooded windbreaker can help. Each windbreaker from Nike is crafted with technology that helps shield athletes from strong gusts.

Nike Storm-FIT, for example, combines windproof and waterproof fabrics into a non-penetrable shield. Many windbreaker styles feature hoods with adjustable fits by tightening the hood to keep wind out.
