Run and Glow with the Nike Vapor Flash

— October 7, 2011 — Lifestyle
The problem with running during nighttime is that you’re not exactly visible to cars, so for safety purposes, the Nike Vapor Flash would be a better option than a regular track jacket.

The Nike Vapor Flash is a sports jacket that will produce 400-candlepower reflectivity for 360-degree visibility. The fabric has glass spheres integrated into it that will reflect light so the runner is visible under low-light conditions. There’s also the option of reversing the jacket if the reflectors aren’t necessary. The outerwear itself is made from 100% polyester that’s lightweight and durable. The zippers on the front and the back helps enhance ventilation so that anyone wearing it will run in comfort. This is definitely a jacket to consider if you do your runs often in the night.
