I review a lot of items at Run Oregon. One of the perks we get is getting our hands on the best running gear. Its always nice to keep the running closet stocked with the latest and greatest items. I thought I would highlight my favorite gear from January – March 2023. These are NOT the release date of the items – solely the timeframe that my review went live. I’d also note that it’s…
There was a time when Tracksmith was a small, “boutique” running apparel company – with a small yet loyal following. They made New England-inspired items that seemed to bridge the gap between historical time periods of running with a modernized feel and performance-forward. In fact, their name itself even showcases this: “TRACK” is a symbol of commitment to training and racing, while “SMITH” represents dedication to a specialized craft – an obsession with quality and…
The NDO Wind-Block Mockneck is a really unique item – almost a hybrid casual / running option that is as functional as it is classic. The look is simple and straightforward. No, there is not emblazoned logo strewn across the chest – a la options with an alma mater or sports logo. There is the standard sash that runs diagonally – in the same color, but with a different construction – that whissssspers that it’s…

Right now, there are a variety of companies who are on the rise in the running world and two that we feel have been killing it of late are getting together for a duet of sorts. The new collaboration between these two – Puma x Tracksmith – features some tops, bottoms, and even some shoes that are just plain awesome. See our other posts on Tracksmith and Puma!

Since their inception in 2014, Tracksmith has been crafting high quality running clothes that hint at a vintage look, while providing the latest in material benefits. We recently checked out their Falmouth Shorts. See our other posts on Tracksmith! While men’s running shorts seem to skew on the shorter end (think 5″ and under), there is something to be said about those of us who prefer a little bit more coverage. While longer shorts are…
