Pace Pickleball Jacket

I don’t usually write reviews, but this jacket surprised me in the best way. I’m very particular about fabric, fit, and finishing (especially at this price point), and the Pace Jacket delivers on all three. The material feels substantial yet breathable — it has that smooth, technical hand feel without being overly shiny or stiff. It drapes cleanly and holds its shape, which is rare. The fit is tailored but not restrictive, and it layers well without looking bulky. I’ve worn it both for tennis matches and running errands, and it transitions seamlessly. It looks polished enough to wear beyond workouts, which I appreciate. Regarding the zipper: I actually prefer the structure — it gives the front a more sculpted look rather than collapsing or wrinkling like most lightweight jackets. It feels intentional, not a flaw. I also didn’t experience any color transfer or bleeding (even after light sweating) and washing according to instructions several times now. which is something I’m usually sensitive to with darker trims. Everything has held up well so far. Overall, this feels like a considered piece — not just another generic active jacket. You can tell attention went into the design and fabric selection. I’d absolutely purchase from this brand again.

I checked the reviews before placing the order, now I’m convinced those are paid reviews. The quality is questionable, there’s a bump in front if you fully zipped. The dark color trim, I believe it’s blue, bleeds the connected part blue, only because I sweated a little. I haven’t washed it yet, not sure what will happen if I wash it.
