Nike Illustrates the History of Its Iconic Windrunner Jacket

First introduced in 1979, Nike’s Windrunner jacket has ever since been a staple not only on the track and field, but also on the streets — a favorite amongst athletes and b-boys for its performance capabilities and distinct visual aesthetic. Now, in what it is calling the Year of the Windrunner, Nike is celebrating its foremost piece of apparel with a comic that recounts its development, its frequent sightings on medal podiums around the world, and the continued evolution of the jacket into the future. Without further ado, enjoy the comic above.
