Did anyone have a nike jacket in the early 80's? They were really thin with a hood and they were two colours top and bottom? I had a blue and grey one?

Re: nike jackets
My first one, which was in about 85 I think, was dark blue & light blue,
Plus the Nike emblem was embroided, and the zip was a special Nike one.
My cousin had one around the same time, blue & grey, with the embroided emblem, but just a standard zip.
They did start making similar ones a few years back, but they were with standard zips & printed emblems
I still bought one though, my original is in my parents loft waiting to be passed on to the next generation...............

Re: nike jackets
When watching old footage of programmes from the 1980s - WindRunners looked ace (far better than I recall). Though I'm unsure if it's an accurate assessment but somehow they seem to be a far bigger sucsess story these day's (I guess though this may be to do with the material) though in another way material's are poor-er clothes wise these day's I think - so I am still lost in a way as to my assessment - though I guess it's just a case of a "hunch" people have regards certain things.
In my day too - the few kids who did don WindRunners wore Tracksuit's Tops over or under them - though I am unsure if it was a trend exclusive to the region I lived in then at the time - as after I think by about 1990/91/92 Sheelsuits seemed to overtake WindRunners I think and one had to loose out or merge into one - as Shellsuits did - more so after Rodney in the OFAH "Miami Twice" Episode made the trend hit bigger heights than ever (combined into one top) I have always felt

Re: nike jackets
Ah yes, the good old Nike Windcheater, had one in the 80s, was my favourite thing back then, mine was Dark Grey and Light Grey, I really wanted the blue one but they didn't have any when I went to get one and I _had_ to get one there and then.
Not the warmest jacket ever but they looked cool, and that's what counts.Last edited by Mulletino; 15-07-2014, 02:58.

In fact, they haven't made them for a long time.
There are quite a few similarish looking Nike jackets, but the proper ones haven't been made for decades.

If he/she was wiling to share even an 80s picture regardless of if they make them now or not, this'd of helped me, hopefully draw comparisons with the modern day versions. Sorryagain for any confusion
