My absolute favorite running, hiking, and camping tops are merino, most of which are Tracksmith’s harriers. Today I’m branching out and trying a similar style from Arc’teryx. Short version? Both are excellent, and I recommend either! The Lana long sleeve is a pretty basic merino crew, but there are a few things to know before...

Is it just me or are Black Friday sales getting earlier and earlier every year? Some brands are sticking to waiting til Thanksgiving/Black Friday itself to launch, but for others it’s a weeks-long extravaganza. Most brands have chosen to do 30% off this year, so you’ll see lots of redundancy in this list. I don’t...

As a cold-natured person, finding good winter technical tops is my constant mission.

Over the last couple of years, I’ve been spending more and more time car camping.

As a hard-to-fit bra size, sports bras that fit and support well are very hard for me to find. As a long distance runner, I can’t compromise on support. In a British study of female marathon runners, 1 in 3 women reported experiencing breast pain during running. I’ve unfortunately experienced it, too. With the right...
