Nike introduces inflatable jacket for Team USA at Milan Cortina Olympics
Nike's inflatable jacket offers on-demand warmth with a rechargeable pump that inflates it in 30 seconds, enhancing insulation versatility for Team USA athletes.
- Ahead of the Milan Cortina Games, Nike unveiled an inflatable jacket for the 2026 Milan Cortina Olympics and says it is being gifted to Team USA.

- Using a rechargeable pump, the jacket inflates from a windbreaker to a mid-weight puffer in about 30 seconds, `You're able to take a jacket that looks like a windbreaker when it's deflated, but when you add air to it, you're able to take it all the way up to a mid-weight puffer,` Nike Apparel Innovation Team said.
- Company spokespeople said the specific jacket shown is not available for purchase now, but they are excited to offer the innovation, Nike representatives said.
- Ahead of the Milan Cortina Olympics, Nike plans to retail the inflatable jacket, signaling a consumer rollout after the Games.
