My favourite £104 reflective running jacket has been slashed to just £32 at Decathlon
If you run outside on winter mornings or evenings, a high-visibility reflective running jacket is an essential piece of kit. Proviz makes the brightest running jackets I’ve ever worn and I’m amazed to see that you can pick one up for £31.20, down from £104, in Decathlon’s running jackets sale. Zoe tests out a Proviz running jacket Proviz REFLECT360 explorer windbreaker running jacket at Decathlon, £31.20 (was £104) BUY NOW Proviz jackets tend to be expensive as they’re made with technologically advanced fabric that has been extensively proven to perform in the dark, and it’s rare to find them reduced. Only Proviz uses REFLECT360, which is a unique material embedded with reflective glass beads to give a full 360-degrees of visibility. As for the sleeves, they provide multi-colour reflectivity which fires light back at upcoming motorists so they can’t fail to spot you. As you can’t put a price on safety, I’ve happily paid £100 for a similar Proviz running jacket, which is not bad value considering that it’s lasted me for two years and seen me through training for two full marathons and an Olympic-distance triathlon. The Proviz REFLECT360 is reduced by £73 at Decathlon Proviz REFLECT360 explorer running jacket at Decathlon, £31.20 (was £104) BUY NOW Now that the Proviz Reflect360 explorer jacket is reduced to £31.20 at Decathlon, which equates to a 70% price drop, the price per wear comes down even more if you have it for a couple of years and use it two to three times a week. At this price, it’s not much more expensive than your average umbrella and it is waterproof, which is a lifesaver on those yucky mornings when it’s dark and raining at the same time. I often forget that I’m wearing it when it’s on as it weighs just 150g, so there’s no feeling of being dragged down or restricted. Plus it has two zipped pockets, so I never have to worry about where to put my phone and keys. While the only sizes left in the Decathlon running jackets sale are XS and larger sizes, there’s no harm in buying it in XL, or bigger, and tucking it into your running tights. As the fabric is practically weightless, you won’t feel like it’s dragging you down, and it’s well worth putting up with a little extra material to get your hands on a top-quality Proviz jacket for just £31.20. And don’t forget that it lasts for years without any special care as I just throw it into the washing machine every few weeks with a regular load and leave it to dry on a radiator. Perfect timing just before Christmas, if you’re looking for a gift for a runner, the Decathlon running jacket sale also has great deals on jackets from Under Armour, Craft and Decathlon’s own-brand Kiprun. Not all of these are reflective, but they’re all designed to break the wind and give athletes a little extra layer without causing overheating. Want to recover faster after running?
