Nylon windbreakers

I’m not a shopper. I decide what I want, and then go to get it. So I don’t frequent places that might have a nylon windbreaker. Where can I get an ‘old school’ one? Specifically: Unlined, non-rip-stop, zipper front, slash pockets. I’ve seen a couple of snap-front jackets online, but I’d like to find a zip-front.

Dude, the Eighties are calling you. They want their fashion sense back. :wink:

Sorry, no advice. I hate to clothes shop almost as much as I hate drinking lite beer. Maybe REI has something you could use at only four times the cost that you used to pay for clothing, back before it became “outdoor gear”. :confused:

'60s, actually. You may be thinking of Members Olny jackets (which do, unfortunately, seem to be making a bit of a comeback).

Here. Can’t tell if it has pockets, though. Oddly enough, it’s “made in the USA” AND imported. To a US site. I have no idea how that works.

Or, if you could get over the anti-ripstop bias (what’s that about?) this one is perfect.

I recently needed the same thing. Unlined with no sports team’s or manufacturer’s logos. Damn hard to find.

I found a windbreaker with the silly Member’s Only style straps for $30 at JCPenney & settled for that. Zip front, unlined, internal breast pockets & external slash pockets. perfect except for the decorations.

Looking for it now I see their website has stopped showing a lightweight jackets category but has 3 new categories of winter weight stuff. Oh well.

The first one looks pretty close, only I was looking for white or dark green. The second one is available in green (but not white). There are a couple of details I don’t care for: the diagonal seams on the shoulders, and the upper pocket. But it’s not bad.

I have a navy blue one - full zip, pockets and hood, I’m pretty sure they’re still available in shops here (Ireland)
