These windbreakers are as chic as they are durable for the fall elements.

Let's face it: with fall comes rain and wind, but the temperatures rarely dip as low as they will come January. So how do you find the perfect jacket that can withstand the elements yet isn't a parka? Enter the windbreaker, fashion's lightest weight jacket that can be styled up or down for whatever weather you may find yourself in this fall.
The windbreaker has been popularized both for its functionality and fun since the silouhette made its way into the spotlight in the 80s and 90s. The jacket was and is useful for athletes training or competing in the rain and wind, yet it isn't made merely to be thrown off on the sidelines. In the 80s and 90s, hip hop artists like<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/dapper-dan-harlem-influence-fashion-gucci-logo" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> LL Cool J</a> championed the windbreaker as a pivotal piece of trendy streetwear.
These jackets are not just relics that can be found in thrift shops across America, but the windbreaker has the staying power needed to remain trendy in this day and age. Brands like <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion-week/willy-chavarria-spring-summer-2025-looks-nyfw-runway" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Willy Chavarria</a>, which <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/joseph-quinn-stranger-things-gladiator-2-interview-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Joseph Quinn</a> wears in his recent L'OFFICIEL cover shoot, have brought a fresh take to the beloved jacket.
