An Ode to RawThreads

So there are 3 things I really love about running and they are:

  • Endorphins
  • Channeling my competitve side into something constructive
  • Fun clothes/running gear

I love that I can justify shoes and fun tops because well, I need it to run, right?

One of my favorite brands is RawThreads (www.rawthreads.com)! They are seriously awesome.

One of my biggest problems as a runner is that running tops chaffe… bad. At the top of my boobs where the top of the tank top/bra hit, at the bottom of my boobs if the band rides up, side seams, armpit areas… basically anywhere there is a seam, I have issues. Not fun. This issue is greatly mitigated by wearing RawThreads.

Their stuff is lightweight, wicks sweat well, is super, super soft, and they have a ton of cute designs.

My love affair started with RawThreads as I was gearing up to run my first Disneyland race last year and was earning my first coast to coast medal, so naturally I needed to run that half marathon in this bad boy:

I fell in love. It didn’t chaffe, it was super light weight, and so soft. I knew something was starting right then.

Since then I’ve run in many races wearing their stuff.

I also have 2 sweatshirts, 2 pairs of socks, 2 solid tanks (still to be worn at a race), and 2 pairs of shorts. It’s super fun to throw on my Disney inspired gear for a normal training run, it just makes it feel… more magical.

It’s been a slow accumulation but each item has been more awesome than the last and I still have my eye on a few more things. 

I really want to wear this tank at the Star Wars Half Marathon…

If your skin/sweat combo doesn’t do well with thick materials and heavy seams, I HIGHLY recommend trying them out. Their stuff isn’t just cute, it’s also completely practical AND reasonably priced.

BONUS: From now until Christmas they are running sales on different items so keep an eye out for discounts on awesome stuff!

Hope this tip serves you well and you fall in love with RawThreads like I did!
