However, I quickly realized thatrunning requires its own wardrobebecause its a completely different motion.

Instead of being stationary, Im movingforwardconstantly.

Moreover, I often run outdoors, meaning I need to consider the weather and dress accordingly.

What I look for in running gear

Functionality and technical elements come first and foremost.

Running gear should be designed for running and everything that comes with it.

It should be moisture-wicking and quick-drying for when things get sweaty.

Then, theres the extra, thoughtful touches that make running more enjoyable.

Im also into the fact that Hoka produces this half-zip in sizes XS-XXL in four pretty colors.

For reference, Im five feet tall, weigh 135 pounds, and am a B-cup.

I would classify myself as petite, so I tried a size small, and it fits pretty well.

If you prefer to run with tighter garments, though, Id definitely recommend sizing down.

These shorts are made of a recycled polyester-Lycra blend and are available in sizes XS-XL.

If I could order these all over again, I would definitely add the small to my cart.

That said, I noticed that the internal Hoka label peeled after a handful of runs and washes.

I would fully suggest sizing up if youre stuck between the smaller and bigger sizes.

These tights come in sizes XS-XL, really hug your figure, and are available in five different colors.

I wish they had a drawstring for a more custom fit, given the price tag.

This midlayer comes in two colors: red-orange and black.

I tested it in black, and it was more of a deep navy blue than a true black.

Dont get me wrongI still love it, and the color obviously doesnt affect its performance.

This sweater runs in sizes XS-XL, and I tried a medium.

Its the tiniest bit loose, but Id still stick with this size over a small.

Its made of French terry material, making it super soft, cushiony, and warm.

It also has thumbholes at the wrist and a drawcord to adjust the tightness of your hook.

However, last week, a friend and I ran more than four miles outdoors.

He was wearing a cotton shirt and I was wearing this three-quarter sleeve.

From running in it, I discovered that this hat also dries with ease.

Instead, I headed to the reviews on the product page and found a total of 156 reviews.

Those reviews awarded the no-show socks 4.5 out of five stars, which is pretty dang good.

Simply put, this means that the no-shows are form-fitting, breathable, flexible, and they stay dry.

While the No-Show 3-Pack is $35, they also have a 3-pack of crew socks for $45.

Both packs come with white, black, and grey colors and are available in sizes S-XL.
