UA Qualifier OutRun the Storm Jacket
Let's be honest: water resistant jackets either feel like a plastic bag or a camping tent, and they can be pretty restricting, too — especially if your sport or workout requires you to move around a ton. The UA Qualifier OutRun the Storm Jacket ($76, originally $100), on the other hand, is as stretchy as it is water resistant due to its four-way, stretch-woven fabric.
