Tips on what to wear on your feet and body
Q: If I were a first-time runner, how would I select a running outfit?
A: Andersons: Technical fibres [that wick sweat] that are comfortable. Remember that you will be warmer than normal when you run so don’t overdress.Advertisement 7Body Glide on areas of the body where there is friction from the edge of a fabric seam or where your thighs may rub together, etc. The key is to be able to focus on your run, and not be distracted by skin irritation.Dressing too warm, not using layers on colder days and wearing non-run-specific gear .A: Andersons: Find gear that suits your personal style. There are lots of good options for technical running gear, so find items you like that motivate you to go out and get running.
Since returning to running, I’ve tried out a lot of gear, mostly because of my role as a Shopping Essentials writer. I also buy a lot of gear from lululemon because it’s what I know. I’ve also tried all sorts of gear from New Balance, Under Armour, Columbia, Allbirds, Knix, adidas, Nike, Asics and other brands.
I like to wear a legging or bike shorts with lots of pockets, a loose shirt that doesn’t expose my stomach, a cushy shoe, orthotics and sport socks. Haven’t explored enough into the land of left-right socks, but I intend to and am excited for my feet’s future.Article content
