Run In Style

If you’re an outdoor runner, you probably have more jackets for running than you care to count. You need a light-weight jacket for those cooler days, a vest when it’s just a little warmer, something water proof for wet days, etc., etc., etc. Thanks to Merrell, you might be able to get rid of just a few of your jackets, with their new lightweight Morph jacket. The Morph, made of reversible nylon and jersey fabric can be worn in eight (yes, you read that right — EIGHT!) different ways — a different style for a different mood and a different day.
The jacket may seem a little pricey at $129, but when you consider how many other jackets it could replace, you may just find it’s worth the price. Plus, it looks great!

- This is the Morph at its most basic. You can also reverse the sleeves to the jacket is almost entirely black.

- This view of the back shows where it zips midway allowing you to convert it into a bolero style jacket.

- The morph reversed with blue bodice and black sleeves.

- And now it’s a vest!
-
- Since my body warms up more quickly than my arms when I am running, I love the idea of a bolero jacket for running.

- And here is the bolero with blue sleeves.
