adidas Hiking Jackets

When the weather's foul but you're dying to get out, hiking jackets from adidas are designed to help you do just that. Set your sights on the trail ahead and take your first step knowing you'll feel dry and comfortable all the way to the summit. Styles made with RAIN.RDY block out wind and water, so you can move at whatever pace you like without feeling cold or wet. Waterproof styles take on the elements and handle the harshest conditions. When heading into the mountains, it's essential to bring gear that accommodates your needs. Our selection of hiking parkas features advanced, outdoor-proven technologies. Styles with ample pockets let you carry everything you need for exploring, from snacks to a map to your keys. Jackets with breathable builds make sure you don't overheat on the trail. And as for keeping your head dry, jackets with stow-away hoods let you pull the hood out or tuck it away depending on the weather.

For adventuring outdoors in frigid temperatures, our outdoor jackets designed for cold weather are a must-have. Whether you're hiking in the snow above the tree line or you're navigating the trail in an icy wind, having the right insulation against your skin makes all the difference. Jackets made with adidas COLD.RDY feature advanced insulation to keep you extra warm while exploring. Styles with overlapping baffles reduce cold spots as you hike, delivering uniform warmth. For mountaineering adventures at high elevation, consider jackets made with GORE-TEX for added protection against the mountain air. Ruggedly durable, our waterproof shells shed rain, snow and wind, while jackets with glove-friendly zippers offer on-the-fly adjustment. Whatever your skill level or goal, keep the chill out with our outdoor hiking parkas built for the cold.

Sometimes all you need is a light layer of warmth and you're good to go. Our selection of fleece-lined hiking outerwear with lightweight insulation is perfect for mild days. Reach the mountaintop and take in the view in one of our half-zip fleece sweatshirts. Designed to get you to the summit in comfort, fleece jackets provide lightweight warmth to keep the chill out. And when your hike heats up, the half-zip style allows for easy ventilation so you can continue on the trail without having to stop. Move through rough terrain in our full-zip fleece jackets built for agile movement. They're more than just a basic fleece, so you'll enjoy adventure performance as you navigate rock gardens and hop boulders. Styles featuring a honeycomb-backed fleece around the core provide increased warmth as you hike. Designed to be versatile, hiking jackets made of fleece are perfect for layering beneath a waterproof shell or over a lightweight long sleeve on colder days.

For days when you want to pick up the pace and trail run instead of hike, our wind jackets help you move with ease. Experience total freedom while exploring the trails you love in outdoor jackets made for speed. When the wind kicks up and rain rolls in, enjoy lightweight coverage as you run. Styles made with WIND.RDY repel gusts and light rain, so you can stay dry, warm and comfortable when out on the trail. Thanks to the slim build, you can pack our windbreakers down and stow them easily when the sun comes out. Designed with elastic at the wrists and hem for a secure fit and pockets to carry all your trail essentials, our wind jackets have all the tech you need for a quick-paced exploration through your favorite landscapes. Explore hiking jackets from adidas, and make the most of your next hike or trail run in the foothills or alpine.

Hiking Jackets Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best hiking jacket?

The adidas Terrex line of hiking jackets gives you plenty of choices, so finding the right one starts with thinking about your specific needs. Consider the time of year and the climate where you will be hiking. How far you will be hiking and the kind of trip you are preparing for matters too. A quick, low-elevation hike might call for a lightweight jacket, while a multi-day backpacking adventure in the mountains could require more insulation and stronger weather protection. Weather protection is key for staying dry and comfortable, especially when conditions can change quickly. Features like adidas WIND.RDY help block out blustery winds and adidas CLIMAWARM keeps you cozy as temperatures drop. By matching your jacket to your hike, you get the right balance of comfort and protection for every adventure.

Can I wear gym clothes to hike?

You can definitely wear gym clothes to hike, especially for shorter outings or casual trails. If you hike often, it is worth considering hiking-specific gear that's lightweight and easy to carry. These pieces are designed to handle changing conditions and help you stay comfortable for longer stretches. For example, hiking jackets give you options in case of unexpected rain, wind or cold. Layering with moisture-wicking shirts or lightweight pants also helps you stay dry and move freely. With the right gear, you can adapt quickly and enjoy your hike, even if conditions change.

Can you wear a puffer jacket hiking?

Hiking-specific, insulated puffer jackets are designed to be lightweight and thin for packability. That means you can easily stuff them into your backpack when the sun comes out or the trail gets tough, then pull them back on when the temperature drops. These jackets use technical fabrics and insulation that trap warmth without adding bulk, so you stay comfortable on the move. On the other hand, fashion puffer jackets don't offer the same durability, and we don't recommend them for active hiking. For warmer weather, hiking jackets like windbreakers and rain jackets might be a better choice. Picking the right outerwear helps you stay focused and enjoy your hike.
