Winter running can be tough. The cold kills motivation and getting your layers right is a whole other challenge. Some say the perfect running jacket doesn’t exist, but I’d argue the Lululemon UV-Protective Cinch-Waist Running Jacket comes pretty close. And right now, it’s 38% off.

Lululemon’s “We Made Too Much” section drops every year and it’s always packed with popular favorites at lower prices. The catch is that sizes and colors disappear fast. Thankfully, the UV-Protective Cinch-Waist Running Jacket in black is still fully stocked for $79, down from $128.

Keep scrolling to grab the jacket while it’s here.

Lululemon’s UV-Protective Cinch-Waist Running Jacket is still available in sizes XS to XL at this sale price. The fabric is sweat-wicking with a four-way stretch, so your movement isn’t restricted, and it also offers UV protection for those bursts of winter sun we’re sometimes treated to this time of year.

Some people like their running layers to be very tight fitting, but if you prefer a looser feel you’ll appreciate the relaxed cut of this Lulu jacket. The cinched waist gives it structure while the top half has a slightly puffed shape that feels roomy, especially if you have a larger bust.

It’s also practical with secure zippered pockets on both sides, plus an interior pocket designed to hold your phone. A lot of women’s running apparel still skimps on pocket space or security, and I carry my phone on every run, so this detail really matters. It’s especially important in winter when running in the dark is hard to avoid and having your phone on you helps you feel safer.

It’s also a great lightweight jacket for everyday wear, not just for running. You can wear it on walks, while travelling, for sun protection in warmer climates thanks to the UPF 40+ rating, or anytime you need a light extra layer.
