What is a windbreaker?
A windbreaker is a lightweight outerwear designed to withstand wind and light rain. Today it is a generic term for windproof and water-repellent nylon sports outerwear such as mountain parkas and anorak parkas, but the name has been in use since at least 1918, and is thought to have originally meant a leather shirt worn as a windbreaker. In some English-speaking countries, it is called “windcheater” or “wind jammer,” and in French-speaking countries, “cagoule. In the mid-20th century, wool and cotton versions were developed, evolving into today’s lightweight synthetic materials. Incidentally, the John Rissman company in the U.S. registered the name as a trademark in the 1940s and promoted its gabardine jackets as “the only real windbreaker. Since then, the name “windbreaker” has become widely recognized.
What are the key points to consider when choosing a windbreaker?
When choosing a windbreaker for adults, it is important to select a color that is easy to wear in a calm tone and a size that is neither too tight nor too loose. Flashy colors that are highly visible for outdoor use can easily stand out in town, and retro colors that are in vogue are easily influenced by trends, so it is recommended to choose plain, basic colors that are versatile and never get old. In terms of size, either a true-to-size or “moderately loose” fit that can be easily layered will be easy to wear regardless of the occasion, and will ensure a smart look.
