Running is a very accessible and versatile sporting activity that can be practised in a variety of environments, such as the city, the mountains or the treadmill at the gym. Running can be both a recreational activity and a competitive sport and is appreciated for its simplicity and the many health benefits it offers. Running is a great way to connect with nature, enjoy the outdoors and maintain an active lifestyle. To get out and about, you need the right equipment, such as the right footwear, technical clothing and accessories specifically designed to ensure your safety and security while practising your sport.

When selecting Running Shoes you must make sure that you choose a model that meets the biomechanical needs of your stride. To define your stride, you need to find out which part of the foot impacts the ground first: the heel, the midfoot or the toe. A pronator stride is the most common stride among most runners, where the foot rotates inward at ground contact. Running shoes should provide optimal cushioning. Depending on your weight and the distance of your outings, you should choose a shoe with more or less cushioning. The weight of running shoes is an important factor to take into account, especially for runners who run long distances. Lightweight running shoes can help reduce fatigue and make running easier. If you are a runner looking for speed and long distances, we recommend running on stable and even surfaces, so the best option would be to choose running shoes on asphalt. If, on the other hand, you like to run on uneven terrain such as mountains or forest trails, you should choose a Trail running shoe, with less cushioning than asphalt, but with better traction to avoid slipping on mud or gravel.

The Running Gear refers to clothing and accessories that are made specifically for runners. Running clothing is designed to provide comfort, performance and safety during practise, even in adverse weather conditions such as cold, wind or rain. Technical running clothing uses materials such as polyester, nylon or elastane due to their quick-drying properties and moisture wicking properties. Breathability is another key feature in running gear. Breathable fabrics allow sweat to evaporate quickly, keeping the runner dry and preventing moisture build-up that can cause skin irritation and increase the weight of clothing. Some technical garments incorporate reflective elements or details that increase the runner's visibility in low light conditions, improving safety during night or dawn runs. Technical running clothing often has specific cuts and fits to promote freedom of movement. Waterproof clothing protects us from rain and wind during intense activities, while preserving body heat in cold weather. The most popular items of running equipment are T-shirts, jackets, trousers, leggings and underwear and thermal clothing.

The Running Accessories are the complementary items that you can add to your basic equipment to enhance your running experience, while providing protection and comfort. There is a wide variety of running accessories that can help you improve your performance, such as hydration waistcoats or belts, front lights to improve visibility in low light situations or backpacks and bags that allow you to carry all your belongings safely and securely while you're out on a run.

Running gear can be made with different technologies for a specific purpose in terms of sustainability, protection from the elements and odour management. bluesign is a standard and certification system that focuses on sustainability and responsible resource management in the textile industry. Companies that comply with the bluesign standards commit themselves to producing textile products in a more sustainable and environmentally friendly way. The bluesign system assesses and controls the entire life cycle of a product, from the manufacture of materials to the final product, ensuring that the environmental impact in terms of energy use, water, chemicals and emissions is minimised. Running material treated with GORE-TEX technology allows water vapour to escape from the garment, but prevents liquid water from entering, keeping the wearer dry in wet or humid conditions. Polygiene is an antimicrobial technology used to control the growth of bacteria and odours in sportswear. This means that garments treated with Polygiene can be worn several times before laundering, which saves water and energy, what's more, it extends the life of the garment.
