Our Running Warehouse Picks of The Week (4/19/2024)

Intro

Well, Boston is finally in the rearview, so it’s time to start looking forward to some spring and summer running. I mean, we’ve been running the whole time, but now it just gets warmer. With that in mind, let’s check out some new stuff that just landed at Running Warehouse.

There’s a little bit of everything going on this week, including some options for both roads and trails. Some shoes, some not-shoes, but all of it is available at Running Warehouse. No matter what we end up choosing, there’s always something to pick up. Our goal is to provide a few new selections each week, so check back real soon if you’re not into this week’s options.

If we’ve reviewed one of our picks, we’ll be sure to link it. If not… maybe just trust us? We’d be buying all of this gear ourselves if we had an unlimited budget.

NOTE: We earn affiliate revenue from Running Warehouse, so anything you buy helps us keep the lights on.

Men’s Nike Energy Rise Tee

Sometimes, it’s nice to pick out a Nike t-shirt to kick off our gear of the week, especially when it has one of the most famous mustaches in running plastered across the front. No, it’s not Robbe’s. It’s Pre’s — obviously. Anyway, this Dri-FIT Energy Rise Tee comes in either black or white, with everyone’s favorite running Oregon Duck sporting his classic singlet and chain. What more could you want?

PRICE: $59

Unisex Nnormal Tomir 2.0

Killian Jornet’s Nnormal made quite the splash with its first generation of trail-crushing shoes, and now it’s back for round two. The Tomir is the company’s training companion, and this version has been upgraded with a supercritical midsole to replace the previous EVA and a nice, reliable Vibram Megagrip Litebase midsole. And honestly, just look at the sweet new set of colorways.

PRICE: $170

Ciele FSTCap SC

There’s only so much we can say about running hats, but you should know that Ciele is the best in the business. There are so many different silhouettes, brims, materials, and more to choose from that it’s almost impossible not to find one that works. The FSTCap SC uses the company’s CoolMatic mesh, which is lightweight and fast-drying to keep the heat off your head, and the SoftCurve brim makes it incredibly easy to pack and go.

PRICE: $55

Ultimate Direction Clutch Wrap Handheld

The other facet of summer running is that it’s hot. Sure, you’ll have time to work on your tan, but you better stay hydrated while you’re at it. Ultimate Direction’s Clutch Wrap Handheld is a great way to do just that. It’s actually a soft strap that you’re meant to put around other soft bottles, but you also get a 500ml flask to go with it. Honestly, props to Ultimate Direction for its universal compatibility.

PRICE: $39

Unisex Under Armour Velociti Elite 2

She may not have broken the tape at Boston this year, but Sharon Lokedi is at it again, and she’s doing it in the Under Armour Velociti Elite 2. Lokedi might be the best athlete on Under Armour’s roster, hands down, and she’s giving the fully revamped racing shoe a pretty good name. UA has updated its midsole with a one-two punch of peba and supercritical Flow foam sandwiched around the Thermorest carbon plate, so it should be eyeing more podiums through the rest of racing season.

PRICE: $249

Women’s Rabbit Crusher Race Crop

Alright, so even though Boston has come and gone for another year, it’s not too late to rock the yellow and blue hues we so often associate with Patriot’s Day. Bonus points because the Rabbit Crusher Race Crop is lightweight and made with cooling RabbitMesh Ice fabric that basically disappears on the run. Oh, and even more points for the fact that Rabbit integrated a pair of gel pockets on each strap.

PRICE: $68
