2010 Asics Track Spikes have Arrived

November 13th, 2009

Major updates to Asics elite level Japan Series spikes lead the way for 2010. The Japan Thunder 3 is lighter, more flexible (thanks to its new split-plate design) and more comfortable. An excellent option for 3K and up. The Japan Lite-ning 3 gets an entirely new upper that reduces weight and provides a secure fit with a bit of stretch. An ideal sprint shoe for any sprint distance.

Mid-level spikes also get updated. The Turbo Phantom 3 gets an integrated midfoot lock-down strap for an excellent fit. This versatile spike is great for turn running, 200m, 400m, and long hurdles. An improved upper is the highlight of the new Turbo Ghost 3. The shoe delivers a more comfortable fit and reduced weight. A great option for athletes running a variety of distance and mid-distance events. 

Although the women’s specific Asics Prima Diva Sprint only receives a new color, it is one sweet looking shoe. And since it has been a perennial powerhouse, it really didn’t need an update. Great for any sprint distance or the hurdles.

New Salomon apparel

October 30th, 2009

When one thinks of Salomon, winter sports come to mind. In addition to making great ski and Nordic equipment, Salomon produces a fine line of footwear and apparel. In fact, Salomon is our number one selling trail shoe brand.

What is not well known is the great apparel available from Salomon. Placing a priority on craftsmanship and high quality fabric selection, Salomon apparel sets itself apart as a premium apparel brand.  What our staff loves about their garments is the great athletic fit (close to the body) and stylish look. Salomon apparel moves with your body, which is great on the run.

Salomon’s key technologies include: SMARTSKIN for windproofness, climaWIND balances weather resistance and breathability, actiLITE wick moisture and dries quickly, and actiTHERM provides good insulation without bulk.

Be sure to check out the men’s and women’s Fall/Winter collections.
