Whether it’s done to the social aspect of run clubs, the low barrier to entry or the sunny weather, one thing is certain: more and more people are getting into running. Regardless of whether you’re new to running or a Strava superstar, here are our top picks to keep you moving fast while looking great. —Vicki Duong
on race shorts. What makes race shorts different from other fitness shorts? Well, for starters, they’ll be ultra-lightweight to ensure you can move uninhibited. We love the pair from On ($160); it keeps you weightless, and the adaptable waistband ensures a comfortable fit, while multiple pockets give you room to stash your small essentials.
arc’teryx norvan 7 running vest. Stay hydrated on the go with this vest ($190) designed with comfort in mind. The vest’s ergonomic fit allows unrestricted movement and ample storage for essentials, including two built-in water flasks. This vest is designed specifically for trail running, with a durable stretch mesh to minimize bounce.
under armour high crossback sports bra. Busty gals will tell you a good sports bra makes all the difference when it comes to running. We’ve been loving the Under Armour crossback sports bra ($80) a molded-cup bra that offers compression and support in all the right places. The thick straps ensure that it doesn’t cut into your shoulders, plus they’re adjustable to ensure a proper fit.
new balance fresh foam x 1080 running shoes. Debatably the most important tool in your running outfit, the right pair of shoes keeps you going. Lately, we’ve been lacing up on the Fresh Foam x 1080s ($210) from New Balances for our training runs. It features a super cushy midsole to provide stability and comfort with every stride.
nike Vaporfly 3 race shoes. Did you know that it’s recommended that you have race-day shoes separate from your training shoes? Designed to keep you light on your feet and faster-paced, running shoes are often thinner and sometimes offer a carbon plate to add bounce to your run. The Nike Vaporfly 3 ($340) gives us the elite edge on race day with a knit upper for added breathability.
