With the very chilly winter we have been having, I realized that I’ve really come to rely on my Skirt Sports Gemini jacket quite a bit this year. I noticed that most of my pictures the last few months have me wearing one of my jackets. As you may know, I am a Skirt Sports Ambassador however, I was not asked to write this nor am I compensated in any way for my thoughts. Just sharing the love!
So why do I love it so much?
First of all, it’s reversible! One side has a soft fleece material that keeps me super warm. The “shiny” is wind proof and water proof. Win Win! I usually wear the shiny side out. I love the fashionable look of the shine and the relaxed yet contoured fit. The jacket hits right at the top of my butt so not too long or too short. I find the sleeves are the perfect length. The 2 side pockets are large enough to hold my phone and my keys. The back pocket can hold fuel or a phone as well. I find it’s the perfect jacket for temps in the mid 20’s to mid 30’s.
- Reversible (wear fleece or laminate side out)
- Front length (Medium): 26β
- Semi-relaxed fit
- Waterproof and wind-proof, breathable four-way stretch laminated fleece
- Fabric is 100% Polyester and the weight is 130/gm/m2
- Laminated side has two hand warming pockets and one 5β zippered back pocket on middle back
- Fleece side has one chest pocket accessible from both sides
- 1.5β droptail back
- 3M ScotchlightTM Reflective Material elements for low light visibility
After wearing it constantly for the last few months, I realized I “needed” another Gemini! The black has a shiny stylish look that almost makes me feel like one of “The Pink Ladies” in Grease LOL. This is one of those jackets that I think looks way better on than it does in the photos. Seriously, if my husband knew I just bought another jacket! The reflective material in the black is way more noticeable which is a great feature.
Looks like both the pink and the black are currently on sale for $70 so if you’re interested you can also use my discount code for another 20% off (SSCMR20)

It is really cute! Isn’t it funny how you pick one thing, and just wish you could wear it all day every day…..if people weren’t going to notice hahhaha! Love it π
Deborah Brooks says
Yes I know and then I noticed that all my pics had the same jacket in them! It is so comfy though.
MCM Mama says
I can’t wait to get mine! You’ve totally sold me on this jacket LOL. (That and the fact that my other jacket was in the wash on one of the cold days…)
Deborah Brooks says
You are going to love it really! I am so glad that I got the second color too.
Pam and Christine says
Very cute jacket. My favorite jacket at the moment is my Brooks Pure Project Shelter Jacket. It looks like a blazer with great reflective stripes, so it is great for early morning runs.
Deborah Brooks says
Ooh that sounds like a cool jacket too.
Julie @ Running in a Skirt says
The jacket is really flattering and cute! I think you NEEDED the black one and the hubs doesn’t need to know π
Deborah Brooks says
I agree totally! Thankfully I don’t think he reads this LOL
Sami says
You look great girl! Both of those jackets look good on you! I just got the black gemini at the Skirt Sports run clinic the other night and I can’t wait to wear it today!!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks! I know you will love it too! So jealous that you get to go to their events
Jennifer @ Running on Lentils says
Very cute! I just saw a Skirt Sports lightweight jacket for sale on 6pm.com that is super cute too!
Deborah Brooks says
ooh didn’t know they had them on there too. This one is a great deal for sure!
HoHo Runs says
Very cute jacket. I don’t have a favorite jacket. I typically use a pullover but I don’t usually have to run in anything colder than upper 20s. I love the black grease jacket!
Deborah Brooks says
We don’t usually get colder than the 20’s either and this is perfect.
Debra@DailyStyleNotes says
What a cute jacket! Love the color. I don’t have a favorite fitness jacket since I don’t workout outdoors but all these cute clothes make me almost want to take the plunge. π
Deborah Brooks says
Ha ha you could and should! What I like about them is that they are cute enough to wear around too
Lesley says
When I lived in Boston, winter jackets were vital. I played a spring sport in college, which meant we were outside in the winter weather a lot. Layers and good quality was the way to go.
Deborah Brooks says
Yes layers are the way to go for sure!
Cailee says
So cute!! I love it in pink!! Seems like this is a great investment!! π
Deborah Brooks says
It’s a great price for a fun jacket
Diatta @ Femme Fitale Fit Club says
I am digging those leggings you are rocking! The jacket is cute too. I do not have a favorite Winter one because I have no plans to spend too much time outdoors. LOL
Deborah Brooks says
Ha the grey leggings are also skirt sports. I love them!
Fiona @ Get Fit Fiona says
The pink one is so cute!
I hate wearing clothes that don’t breathe. Feeling hot and muggy is the worst, especially when you’re working out, so it must be nice that this one is breathable.
Deborah Brooks says
I really love the material and find it is very breathable and perfect for running in. I also wear them around they are really stylish.

That jacket looks so warm for these colder Temps. I don’t have any jackets for running, I am always layering sweatshirts.
Deborah Brooks says
Oh you need a jacket!!
Debbie Rodrigues says
It looks awesome and seems to be really warm.
I have to admit that I do not have good winter outfits to sport. Can you believe that I do not have a single pair of gloves?!?
Next year I will get organized on time. π
Deborah Brooks says
What really? You need to go shopping girlfriend π
Jen says
Cute jacket π I will wear anything that is warm! Usually layer up under my Boston Marathon jacket
Deborah Brooks says
Well if I had one of those I’d probably wear it everyday! Even in the summer π
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
Love it! In both colors! Reversible things are the best because it’s like getting a twofer :). Thanks for joining the link up this week!
Deborah Brooks says
Exactly! Thanks for hosting!
Jen @ Pretty Little Grub says
It’s so awesome when you find that perfect piece. Then you definitely buy two…or three!
Deborah Brooks says
ha ha yes it is!
Mary Long says
That is a great looking jacket!
Deborah Brooks says
I love it!
Mary Beth Jackson says
really stylish! and I love those tights you have on! WOO HOO! Lucky I don’t run much in the 20’s or 30’s, I will sit and wait on a skirt sale ! π TGIF!
Deborah Brooks says
They do have some good sales! Wait until you see the new line it’s beautiful
Sam @ PancakeWarriors says
Wow it’s super cute!! Love love love the pink π PS I have to agree with you on the Grease reference – I love it!
Deborah Brooks says
ha ha that was a great movie!
Annmarie says
Such a cute jacket! With all the freezing weather we have been having up here I could use something like that. Definitely have to check it out π
Deborah Brooks says
OH you do need to check it out!
Sue @ This Mama Runs for Cupcakes says
So cute! I haven’t seen that jacket! I don’t have a running winter jacket because I don’t run outside in the winter, lol π Saves money ;P
Deborah Brooks says
Ha I don’t know about that-you could wear it to the gym!
Kathryn @ Dancing to Running says
Your jacket is absolutely adorable! I received an REI insulated vest for Christmas, and its becoming my go to when I need an extra layer during my runs, but don’t want to wear an actual jacket.
Deborah Brooks says
The weather has been so crazy here and cold that I really have come to rely on this one.
Renee @ Bendiful Blog says
That’s a cute jacket though! And do what I do never tell your husband what you buy until he asks LOL!
Deborah Brooks says
I try to hide my shopping addiction whenever possible!
Cassi says
I’ve never had a winter jacket. It never seems warm enough. Warmth and a hood are what I look for.
Deborah Brooks says
It depends where you live-this one works perfectly for me!
Wendy@Taking the Long Way Home says
That jacket is so cute. The pink is definitely your color! My new favorite jacket is my NorthFace thermoball. In hot pink, of course…
Deborah Brooks says
Funny I have that one and I don’t find it warm enough. I like it but it’s not very warm
Coco says
Nice! I find that I turn to the same gear run after run, although I try to mix it up! Love the Grease refernece! π
Deborah Brooks says
It’s a fun one!
Sandra Laflamme says
I do not have this jacket but may need to add it into my Skirt wardrobe! Stylish, comfy , cute and functional! You look great in it and rockin’ the gotham tights!
Deborah Brooks says
Ah thanks skirt sister! I do really love it and at the sale price you may “need” it too
Kristy @Runaway Bridal Planner says
If you didn’t know anything else about me, one thing anyone can tell by seeing me is I love pink! Especially to run in pink:)
This jacket is super cute, I seriously LOVE IT!!!
Deborah Brooks says
Oh thanks! I love pink too and this is really my fave
Natalie says
Really cute! I like the pink π
This would work for me when we go to the mountains.
Thanks!!
Deborah Brooks says
Oh yes for sure I wear it around even when I am not running
Lisa @ Lisa Runs for Cupcakes says
I really love Skirt Sports. I have honestly never really thought about getting a winter running jacket since I tend to warm up so much. If I need the extra warmth on those bitter cold days, I keep my core warm with a vest.
Deborah Brooks says
Vests are great too! It’s just been so cold I’ve loved having this jacket this year
Denise @ Healthy Disney Family says
That jacket is SO cute on you! Love it in the pink and the black both.
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks they really are great to have this year!
Stephanie (@FitMomTraining) says
That jacket looks awesome. I love that it’s reversible. The length looks perfect too. Most jackets are too short for my longish self.
Deborah Brooks says
They are usually too long on me! This one is great though!
Sharon says
You had me at Pink Lady. π
Deborah Brooks says
ha ha! It’s a great jacket π
Safari says
Pefect name for a two-sided coat. π Careful…I’m a gemini. lol
My favorite winter jacket, I purchased from Road Runner Sports. I LOVE it!! It’s nice and light and WARM!!
Deborah Brooks says
Road Runner has some great choices as well. I’m all about the pink!
