Most gym gear is designed for guys who do not exist. Brands love to slap a big label on a shirt that cuts off your blood flow, acting like extra fabric is a design flaw rather than a necessity. You deserve to stretch, bend, and move without feeling like you are wearing a straightjacket made … Read more
Tugging at a restrictive waistband while trying to navigate a steep, rocky switchback is an immediate way to kill the joy of a good hike.
