Bit Chilly, Innit? They're Called Windbreakers for a Reason
Chances are that if you live above the equator, your January is, at the very least, a wee bit cooler than later on in the year. If you're lucky, it's just windier, and if not, you're in full-on winter mode, snowfall and all. Either way though, be it for now or for spring, as your main cover up or a layer of many, you ought to have your eyes on windbreakers and track jackets.
As became apparent upon review of designers' Spring/Summer 2025 collections, rain-repellent outerwear is thee trend of the year. Next to billowing trench coats, brightly colored parkas, and retro skiing anoraks, this includes, too, the windbreaker and its blokecore-ian track jacket cousin.
Now, you know good and well whom to seek out for products like the latter – and so do we. adidas is, without a doubt, one of the most obvious and reliable addresses to obtain functional performance gear with a nostalgically fashionable, and/or modern twist. Therefore, we pulled some of our favorites, for you to be all set for the season ahead, weather- and style-wise.
Windbreakers & Track Jackets All the Way:
adidas Denim Track Jacket
Starting off strong with a left-field pick: A denim track jacket lends the best of both worlds to its wearer, in a bright blue jeans fabric – for a denim on denim moment perhaps?
adidas EQUIPMENT Metallic Windbreaker
Continuing on a streak of rather personality-heavy picks, you'll never fall beneath radar in this metallic windbreaker.
adidas Full Zip Jacket
Not to worry though, if you're not feeling quite as eccentric these days. There's a an impossibly sleek beige bomber available, too.
adidas Moto Bomber
Automotive fan? This piece was made for you.
adidas Padded Jacket
This one's, again, for those that prefer a more refined look.
adidas Track Top
Whereas this guy here is best paired with an owner who's a sucker for vintage athleisure references.
adidas Washed Bomber
A bomber jacket that not only looks like it's lived many lives, but is hoping to actually do so with you.
adidas Woven Jacket
This blue and pink jacket is mesh-lined for maximum airflow, and woven of 70% recycled textile materials. Vibrant and eco-friendly.
adidas Arsenal Track Top
As pointed out elsewhere, these styles of jackets have a proper history and relationship with the soccer word – or football, rather, as any native or fan of Arsenal London would be sure to correct me.
adidas EQUIPMENT Track Top
Lastly, we'll suggest a neutral, fool-proof base model. It ticks pretty much every box without leaning to heavily into either of them.
