How to Choose Running Products

Our wide range can be overwhelming if you don't know what you're looking for. Following are some brief guidelines for various running situations you might find yourself in, but nothing can replace the personal service we offer in our shops.

Choosing Road Running Shoes

Our range of road running shoes is categorised by stability: neutral cushioning, stability cushioning, and motion control, to find out which category you need please see Natural Gait Analysis.

Choosing Running Watches and Monitors

All running watches a have stopwatch to time your run; the more advanced have the option of recording splits, countdown, interval and recovery timer, even hydration alarms. If you want to lose weight or work on your fitness, you might consider a heart rate monitor.

Choosing Running Legwear

Our technical fabrics remove perspiration from your skin to prevent uncomfortable chafing caused by the build-up of moisture you would get from cotton or other fabrics. As a result they keep you dry so you can enjoy your running for longer. The breathable materials are light and durable.

Choosing Running Jackets

Highly technical, breathable fabrics make the running jacket an essential piece of kit for every runner. When running in colder or wet conditions the jacket helps to sustain the microclimate of the human body by simply keeping you warm and dry.

Choosing Running Tops

What makes running wear different from other sports wear is the use of technical fabrics that remove perspiration from your skin, preventing uncomfortable chafing caused by the build-up of moisture. The materials used are breathable, light and durable – designed to keep you dry and comfortable.

Choosing Running Socks

Running socks tend to be more durable than average socks. Made from breathable, wicking fabrics, they are also designed to draw away moisture from the feet, keeping them cool and dry in order to improve comfort and minimise risk of blistering.

Choosing Barefoot Running Shoes

If you’re looking to buy a minimal shoe you have a few different options. The most minimal of them all fit like a second skin, allow your 10 toes to move independently, but protect your feet from the ground for the completely barefoot experience.

Choosing Running Backpacks

Running backpacks come in different volumes and fits, including women's specific. They are designed to be light and sit nicely on your back without digging in anywhere, stabilised on your body by chest and waist straps.

Choosing Running Visibility

Running during the winter season, or late at night, your safety is a priority. Whether you are road running or out on the trails, we recommend you are visible.

Choosing Running Waist Bags

If you are doing a long training run or race, or if you need to take your phone, keys and iPod with you and want an alternative to an arm wallet, then a waist bag can be useful. They come in various sizes, the smallest is the width of an inch – made of stretchy material that expands to accommodate more contents as needed.
