Brooks - Canopy Jacket

Summary

The Brooks Canopy is the infamous jacket worn by Des Linden when she won the 2018 Boston Marathon! This jacket has a great feature where it can pack into a pouch and be worn as a backpack. I love that it comes in a variety of colors and has pockets!

Pros

Stow away hood, packable

Cons

Sizing, not water proof

The Canopy jacket offers protection from the elements! It had a stow away hood, attached packable pouch, pockets, and is very lightweight. From 2019 to 2022- this jacket got some upgrades. For me, it now seems to have more of a cropped fit. I recommend sizing up. This years, 2022, version features a slit on the back- which I thought was weird at first, but I’m used to it now. Overall, great fall and spring jacket when that weather is transitioning.

Experience

I wear this jacket mostly for day use. I have worn it on a run and it does fine, I’m just a hot blooded runner. I love that it has snap closures along the front so I can run with it unzipped and not have it flap around. Again, I love the attached pouch so it’s easy to stuff the jacket away and carry on my run- hands free!
