Boosting My Workout: adidas Boost Running Shoe Review

As I mentioned previously, I headed into NYC recently to check out the launch of adidas’ latest addition to the legions of running shoes out on the market. They swore that this shoe would change the running world, but don’t all companies make that claim with each shoe they introduce? So what did I do? [...]

Big Apple Adidas: A Boost to Running

I recently headed into NYC for an adidas event for an unveiling that promised to change running as we know it. I figured if anything could make me like running, an adidas event in the Big Apple was as likely as any other. Plus, it was a rare case when the childcare and cool-NYC-events stars [...]

We Go “Natural” Running in Three Pairs of Adidas…

What does “natural” running mean? Well, best as we can tell, it’s running as close to barefoot as possible without actually going barefoot. And if you’ve ever been on FBG before, you know it’s a big ol’ trend. There are so, so, so many minimalist shoes coming out. Scratch that. Most major brands are coming [...]

As you know, we’re all about the obvious jokes around here anyway. What’s not funny? How cool the adidas ClimaCool shoe is—and I mean literally cool. The design of this running shoe is all [...]

So Fresh, So Clean, So Sporty (and Functional!): Adidas 3 Hair & Body Wash

Okay, so Adidas 3 Hair & Body Wash is technically for dudes. But girls get sweaty and stinky, too! And we appreciate two-in-one products that keep our gym bags from being too overstuffed. Am I right, or am I right? So when Adidas asked if we wanted to try its new line of advanced formulas [...]

Adidas, You’ve Outdone Yourself This Summer

I don’t use the word “smitten” lightly, so when I say that I’m smitten with adidas’ new ClimaSpeed line and adizero Rush shoes? Well, believe me. Because the pieces I’m about to give you the deets on are in heavy rotation in my workout apparel drawer. Meaning, I have to do laundry weekly or they’ll [...]

Fall Fitness Fashion Dos—And Don’ts!

While we don’t have to look fashionable when we work out (hell, some days I’m lucky to put shoes on), it’s certainly fun to wear cute fashion apparel. And these days, the fitness fashion gear is just as functional—if not more so—as strictly fashionable. And this fall, the fitness trends are fun, fun, fun and bright, [...]
