Durability guaranteed — I’ve used these 5 items of running apparel for years and they’re still good as new
I’ve tested a lot of running apparel over the past decade and these are the products that have really stood out for their durability.
For runners who value long-lasting apparel, these five items have proven to be durable and reliable after years of use. First, the Saysky Pace 2 in 1 Shorts offer a supportive inner layer and drop-in pockets for essentials. Despite their high upfront cost, these shorts remain comfortable and show minimal wear after weekly use for several years.
Next, Soar's All Weather Jacket, though a pricier option, has proven to be windproof and water-resistant, even after multiple winters of use. The jacket's close fit allows for freedom of movement, making it a reliable choice for winter runs. Stance Run Crew Socks have also stood the test of time, with some pairs lasting over five years.
While they may not be as soft as when new, these socks remain comfortable after numerous runs and washes, with no signs of wear like holes or fraying. Lastly, the Tracksmith Van Cortland Tee complements the higher price point with better-than-average durability. This loose-fitting tee provides breathability in hot conditions, and its relaxed fit makes it a versatile option for easy and long runs, even in winter.
