new year, new gear

Hibernation is almost over. Longer days and warmer weather are right around the corner. It’s time to wake up and smell the sweet cherry blossoms and the anticipation of warmer, sweatier days. The Spring race season is coming and it’s time to get up, get moving, and get our sweat (back) on.

Last month, we passed along an ultimate holiday gift-guide to help you gift great gear through the holiday season. Now that we are in full swing into the New Year, we want to show you how we are getting back to the gym (and how to make a seamless transition down to the gear).

It is time to peel off that heavy, winter gear and put on our newest and freshest super cross-functional pieces. These transitional layers will be sure to help us get (back) to the gym for that indoor marathon training, get (back) in the saddle, and get (back) on the mat.

(Race With Grace ½ zip II, Mesh With Me Tank, Run: Inspire Tight II)

Whether you’re logging miles at the track, doing burpees and metcons, or toning your core in high plank, this lightweight and sweat-wicking gear won’t weigh you down (especially when you feel the need for speed). Indoor marathon training gets real when we have the freedom to sweat, and sweat hard. Technical Luxtreme, a low-friction performance fabric, allows us to keep pace and let off steam. Hit the ground running with Run: Inspire Tight II (our favorite run crop just got longer to cover more skin). Keep the girls on lock-down, while showing a little skin (without showing it all), in this sleek Mesh With Me Tank. Stay on your game by keeping warm (with strategically placed ventilation) with this Race With Grace ½ Zip II. Train on. Game on.

(Clip-In Crop, Clip-In Tank, Clip-In Long Line Bra)

Keep calm and cycle on; take your ride inside with these indoor cycling pieces designed to solve our riding needs. Clip in for a sweaty indoor ride with the lightweight, mesh-paneled Clip-In Crops. They’ll keep you cool but completely covered with a higher rise at the back, especially for those tracks when you’re bent over your handlebars in class. Lastly, ride with ease in the super lightweight anti-stink Clip-In Tank. Tie the open back when things get hot and let it loose when you’re cooling down. Layer the Clip-In Long Line Bra under the Clip-In Tank to warm up and wear it on its own when our temperatures rise. Ride on.

(Just Breathe Tank, Just Breathe Pant)

Yoga rejuvenates your body and calms your mind. And, it just so happens to complement every other sweaty pursuit. Kick off the New Year with a strong core and balanced mind by getting (back) on the (yoga) mat. Flow through even a sweaty practice with these yoga pieces that give you a great balance of coverage and room to move. A perfect match for sweat-wicking and four-way stretch Just Breathe Tank. Lastly, the Just Breathe Pants help us let off steam in our hottest yoga classes so we can keep stretching it out in comfort. Breathe on.

We know: shorter days and colder weather make for one cozy bed, so getting (back) at it is extra challenging. Need that extra push or that little bit of inspiration? Get (back) at it with us Tuesday, February 3rd, at 6:30 PM, for our (new!) Run Club. All running levels are welcome! Meet at the front area of the store and look for Kaitie and Lindsey, your fearless lululemon Old Town run club leaders.
