Shop Women's Jackets & Gilets at Myprotein

Whether you're warming up before a session or heading out for a run, a women's windbreaker jacket or sports jacket that keeps up with you makes all the difference. This collection covers every layer — from cropped zip-ups built for the gym to windbreakers designed for outdoor training — so there's always the right jacket for the conditions.

Across the range you'll find 13 styles in a full spread of colourways, from classic Black and White to Forest Green and Deep Midnight. Cropped fits, slim fits, seamless constructions, maternity options — it's a considered line-up built around how women actually train.

Who This Collection Is For

If you train outdoors, warm up in the gym, or just want a women's gym jacket that moves with you rather than against you, this collection has something built for that. The styles here work hard — sweat-wicking fabrics, contouring seam placements, and functional zip-up designs that earn their place in a kit bag.

The range is also a strong fit for women who want versatility without sacrificing performance. Maternity-specific styles, seamless constructions for a second-skin feel, and windbreakers for outdoor conditions mean this isn't a one-note collection — it covers the full picture of how women train and move.

When to Wear Women's Jackets & Gilets

A women's workout jacket earns its place in almost every training scenario. Throw one on between sets, wear it for an outdoor run when the temperature drops, or layer it over a sports bra for the commute to the gym. The cropped and slim-fit styles in particular transition easily from warm-up to workout without needing to come off.

Windbreakers are the go-to when you're training outside — built to cut through wind and dry fast so you're not weighed down mid-run. The seamless zip-up styles, with their funnel necklines and contouring panels, work just as well for lower-intensity sessions, yoga, or any activity where you want coverage that feels like it's barely there.

Key Features

Sweat-Wicking Fabric

The jackets in this collection are built with moisture-management in mind. Quick-drying, sweat-wicking materials draw moisture away from the skin so you stay comfortable whether you're mid-session or cooling down.

Wind Protection Built In

The Velocity Windbreaker styles are constructed to handle outdoor conditions without bulking you out. Lightweight and packable, they cut through wind while letting you move freely — exactly what a women's windbreaker jacket should do.

Seamless Construction

The Tempo Ultra Seamless styles use contouring seam placements that enhance shape and definition without any uncomfortable seams digging in. The funnel neckline adds an extra layer of wind protection, making these ideal for cooler outdoor sessions.

Inclusive Fit Options

From cropped fits to slim-fit designs and a dedicated maternity jacket, the collection is built around real variety. Whatever your shape or training stage, there's a jacket here designed specifically for how you move.

FAQs

What is a women's windbreaker jacket best used for?

A women's windbreaker jacket is built for outdoor training in changeable conditions. Lightweight and fast-drying, the Velocity Windbreaker styles in this collection are designed to keep wind out without adding bulk — making them a solid choice for running, outdoor HIIT, or any session where the weather's unpredictable. They pack down small too, so they're easy to carry when conditions shift mid-workout.

What makes a good women's sports jacket for the gym?

For gym use, the best women's sports jacket is one that moves with you rather than restricting you. Look for quick-drying fabrics, a fit that doesn't ride up during squats or overhead movements, and a zip-up design that's easy to pull on and off between sets. The seamless styles in this range — particularly the Tempo Ultra Seamless Zip Up — tick all three boxes and offer a streamlined silhouette that transitions straight from warm-up into the session.

How should I size a women's gym jacket?

Sizing depends on the fit you're after. For cropped and slim-fit styles, going true to size gives a close, performance-oriented fit that stays in place during movement. If you prefer a little more room for layering or comfort during lower-intensity sessions, sizing up one is a straightforward option. Check the size guide on each product page for specific measurements — fit can vary slightly between styles.

Who designs the jackets in this range?

Every jacket in this collection is designed by Myprotein's in-house design team. They develop each style with specific training scenarios in mind — from seamless constructions shaped around the gym to windbreakers engineered for outdoor conditions. It's a focused, considered process that shows in the details.

How do I care for seamless or windbreaker jackets?

Most styles in this collection are machine washable on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid fabric softeners — they can break down moisture-wicking properties over time — and skip the tumble dryer in favour of air drying to keep the shape and fabric integrity intact. Always check the care label on the specific garment for exact instructions.

Can I wear a women's cropped jacket for outdoor workouts?

Cropped jackets work well for outdoor sessions in mild conditions — particularly when paired with a high-waisted legging or tight. For colder or windier days, the full-length Velocity Windbreaker styles offer more coverage and dedicated wind protection. If you're training outside regularly in variable weather, having both a cropped style and a windbreaker in your kit covers most scenarios.

Is there a jacket suitable for maternity training?

Yes — the Power Maternity Jacket is designed specifically for training during pregnancy. It's built to accommodate a growing bump while keeping the same performance focus as the rest of the range, so you don't have to compromise on fit or function as your body changes.

How do I style a women's zip-up jacket beyond the gym?

The seamless zip-up styles in particular are versatile enough to wear outside of a training context. Pair them with matching leggings for a co-ord look, or layer them over a casual outfit for the journey to and from a session. The funnel neckline on the Tempo Ultra Seamless styles adds a more considered, fashion-forward edge that works just as well off the gym floor as on it.
