It’s important to let your feet recover after a run, even in the colder months. The OOahh Slide is a great at-home choice for post-exercise recover – slip them on, with or without a sock, and take it easy. An evolution of the OOriginal, the brand’s go-to flip flop, this features an agile OOfoam strap for additional support and comfort. Or the OOmg Eezee a different take on the classic, made with a unique 4-way stretch woven canvas-like material, these shoes contour the entire foot.

Love this from Maaree – their solidarity high impact sports bra. Layering during winter is enough to deal with without the added hassle of bra issues. This high-impact sports bra solves this problem; it’s a go-to choice for runners as it features an adjustable Overband, convertible shoulder straps and a comfortable design using non-elastic and elastic panelling. Comfort and performance, all in one.

This support shoe is performance-ready and offers quality lightweight structure on even the wettest and coldest of runs. There is even a waterproof version for the rainiest of days.
