Review: Insulated Jackets
Cold Play (cont.)

Nike ACG's No Sew Down Jacket
Nike ACG's No Sew Down Jacket (Thierry Desfontaines)
NIKE ACG's new NO SEW DOWN JACKET seals out winter sleet with hot-glued insulation chambers throughout the microfiber shell, keeping the 650-fill down in place with less bulk and no leak-prone stitching. Tests in Oregon last winter confirmed that the Swoosh's proprietary water-repellent finish turns pounding rain to harmless silvery beads, while the No Sew's roomy, stylish cut means you can wear it for that after-work cocktail without your date wisecracking about George Costanza. $225; 800-344-6453, www.nikeacg.com
