because i am such an active person, i love clothes that allow me to move freely (particularly when i am doing these activities).
sometimes, i can't help but laugh (inside) when i see some people going for a jog in their floral pyjama pants. i mean, yes...it IS early in the morning. but put on something decent for God's sake!
diversion: at the kl marathon, i witnessed this WOMAN (not girl) wearing a pair of pyjama shorts with teddy bears on it. it was red. and an eyesore.
there are only a few sports brands i go to...nike, adidas and reebok.
nike
my sports shoes has always been from nike. despite there being many other brands that have "better" performances when it comes to shoes (e.g. Asics), i still go back to my nikes. i guess it is more of a brand perception. growing up with the idea that my feet and knees are protected with the 'nike air' technology also helps. and nike did a good job in portraying this visually in their shoe designs (clear perspex at the heel portion).
they have recently launched their new shoes, the Nike Lunar Glide (at a whopping RM389!).
- Lunarlite system - a shock absorber system that gives you a soft, bouncy run
- Dynamic support - adapts to the individual runner and adjusts to your gait, which provides the best support for you
- Women's shoe - a dynamic arch support for increased stability & a wedged carrier construction for extra cushioning
when it comes to clothing, i do like their sports bras as they come in many designs and colours to suit my fancy. however, the training tops are a tad short for me. if you want longer ones, you should look at the nike dance/yoga range.
adidas
adidas has always struck me as a more "serious" sport apparel brand. i am not a fan of their sports shoes (can't say the same about their fashion trainers!) as they are a bit too bulky for my taste.
where adidas wins is their apparel. especially after they signed on Stella McCartney, their designs have become more streamlined and fashionable. i am a huge fan of their bottoms (the 3/4 training pants)!
bought this on sale and in BRIGHT YELLOW.
the stella mccartney range
reebok
i love the playdry reebok pants so much cause they are the most flattering for my *ehem* big bottom. i bought 2 pairs. it has lasted me for 2 years now. :)
mine has ruched side pockets, which you would have thought would not suit a pear-shape like me...but it looks good anyway!
