Is a nylon jacket wind proof?

It usually is, if the nylon is tightly woven, regardless of whether or not it has an additional coating (usually of polyvinylchoride or polyurethane) to make the garment waterproof or water resistant. It is the tightness of the fabric construction (weaving or knitting) which determines wind resistance. Note that nylon by itself (i.e. uncoated) is NOT water resistant at all---nylon (polyamide) actually absorbs water and the fibers weaken, whereas cotton INCREASES in strength when it becomes wet. In theory, you could have a loosely knit or woven nylon fabric---e.g., a mesh or pique knit---which is NOT wind resistant at all.

Are woven fabrics better for summer or winter?

If you're referring to temperature and breathability, woven is not necessarily cooler than knit. The breathability depends more on the type of fiber (natural fabrics versus synthetic fabrics), and less on how it is constructed (woven fabrics versus knit fabrics).Fabrics that are "cool" and breathable are:linencotton (especially seersucker)rayonlightweight woolsilkThese are all natural fabrics, and can be either woven or knit. For example, a cotton shirt could be woven (such as a button-down shirt), or knit (such as a t-shirt).And if by "cool" you mean trendy or attractive....well, that's up to you.
