The Pertex Wind Parka is a striped fashion statement from Nanamica that will keep you stylish even in the most ferocious tornadoes. The material used in the construction of the shell for this [windproof piece of outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pieces-for-rainy-days) is [100 percent pertex polyester](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patagonia-retrox-jacket).

The printed design on the Pertex Wind Parka is called the Heather Grey Blanket Print. The print creates a look that challenges the perception of the materials used on the jacket, it makes the Pertex Wind Parka appear to be made out of a warn-out vintage fabric.

When it comes to the [cooler seasons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fall-and-winter-line), the Pertex Wind Parka is an obvious first choice for outerwear. It's perfect for exploring the outdoors and stylish enough to hit the streets of any world-class city.
