Fall Running Gear

When fall rolls in, every runner knows it’s time to step up their game and gear. The changing season brings unpredictable weather, fluctuating temps, and those bone-chilling winds that can make you rethink your route. Boathouse’s fall running gear is built for these exact challenges, crafted in Philadelphia and designed by athletes who know what it’s like to brave cold mornings and sudden storms. With jackets featuring advanced materials like waterproof Gore-Tex and Pro-Tech soft-shells, flexible layering pieces, and versatile pants and shorts, this collection equips you to go the distance, no matter what fall throws at you. Each piece is American-made—a commitment to quality you can count on. At Boathouse, we don’t cut corners. Our fall running clothes are crafted here in Philadelphia and designed to perform in actual conditions, just like the athletes who wear them.

Performance Running Outerwear for Fall Conditions

Fall weather running gear needs to do more than keep you warm; it has to work with you in challenging conditions, keeping you dry and comfortable without restricting your movement. Our fall windbreakers and sports jackets are designed to handle everything from those deceptively warm October afternoons to the kind of raw November mornings that make your neighbors think you're crazy. Find jackets crafted with water-resistant fabrics like Pro-Tech soft-shells and nylon for flexible, breathable coverage. Or choose waterproof Gore-Tex for high-level protection the Gore-Tex Stevenson Jacket has saved countless training runs from weather-related DNFs. For runners facing wet or windy conditions, these jackets offer a reliable defense. 

Layering Tips for Temperature Control

Mastering fall running is all about strategic layering. For a solid foundation, start with a moisture-wicking base-layer top and a thermal mid-layer like our soft yet breathable Tailwind Unisex Hoodie. On colder days, add a vest or jacket for wind-resistant, water-repellent coverage that’s easy to shed if you heat up.

For bottoms, try wearing compression tights under our double-layer shorts for added warmth on cool days. Boathouse’s Journey pants offer lightweight protection and freedom of movement, and our Gore-Tex pants give you waterproof, windproof, and breathable coverage, making them ideal for layering or wearing solo.

High-Performance Shorts for Transitional Weather

For those transitional fall days, our double-layer training shorts add a touch of warmth without slowing you down. The two-layer design is built to reduce chafing so you can focus on hitting your splits, not adjusting your shorts every mile.
