NikeSkims Launches Its First Outerwear Pieces
From fluffy and water-repellent jacket textures to fresh new colourways, the latest NikeSkims collection brings an elevated take on activewear.
NikeSkims has been killing it with activewear that supports and shapes, but they’ve just launched something different: outerwear designed for layering over your workout gear. Introducing NikeSkims’ latest collection, centred around its first outerwear designs and a bold new colourway.
NikeSkims landed in Singapore earlier this year, offering sportswear serving function and fashion. This collaboration between Nike and Skims makes women’s sportswear versatile for movement and everyday wear. According to Kim Kardashian, the Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of Skims, NikeSkims is all about helping women feel confident, and the new collection aims to give women even more ways to stay stylish and feel good throughout the day.
The Sherpa franchise includes a fluffy half-zip jacket with NikeSkims logo embroidered on the side.
The new NikeSkims outerwear comes in two material franchises: Sherpa and Crunchy Nylon. The fluffy Sherpa franchise is made with Nike’s Therma-Fit material, soft interior panels and recycled nylon details. The range includes a vest, half-zip jacket, and a hooded jacket.

The other franchise, Crunchy Nylon, offers a more structured, water-repellent alternative. These pieces in this range can be worn as protective outerwear, or paired with NikeSkims’ basic workout pieces, with some examples including a cropped jacket and hooded parka, alongside two-inch shorts and wide-legged pants.
NikeSkims’ new colourway, University Red.
Beyond the new designs, NikeSkims is introducing a vibrant new colourway, University Red. This hard-to-miss shade will feature across the NikeSkims catalogue, including the new Crunchy Nylon franchise, existing Matte, Weightless Layers and Performance Cotton Blend ranges, as well as footwear and accessories.
NikeSkims has also restocked some existing ranges, including Weightless Layers, Stretch Nylon, Performance Cotton Blend, Stretch Knit, Matte and Airy. These returning series have also been updated with additional colourways, including the new University Red.
Meanwhile, the Matte collection has expanded to include new body-contouring bras, while the Stretch Knit collection has debuted new styles made with single-layered yarn for a seamless drape and fit.
The iconic NikeSkims Rift Satin has returned with the new University Red shade.
To round off the new fall styles, the NikeSkims Rift Satin has returned with fresh colourways in the collection. Besides the new University Red, the shoe is now available in Shadow Brown, alongside the returning Silt Red.

The new NikeSkims fall styles are available at Nike Orchard Road and Nike Jewel, as well as online.
