Brooks
Because every couple should have a passion to share
If the woman in your life is your favorite running partner, hiking junkie, or weight lifting spotter, then the gift of quality workout apparel cannot be beat! There is nothing better than stepping out for a run looking good and feeling like your very best. For women, great active apparel can do that – and trust me, she will thank you!
A great pair of running tights is the perfect start to a smart gift. The Ghost High Waist Mesh Crop Pant pulls in all the trouble spots while accentuating the leg with a cute mesh fabric. The crop pant is a weightless, second-skin fit that won’t you back as you run. Pair the pant with the Stealth Tank for a sleek, quick-dry, streamlined look or the Ritual Tank for a more relaxed, breathable fit. Both tanks feature a racerback design and extra length for a classic fit.
Don’t forget one of the most important pieces of an active wear ensemble for women – the sports bra. The Fastforward Crossback Bra is high in style and function with adjustable criss-crossing straps and mesh detail on the front that wraps around to the back. The back of the bra also features a snap closure for the perfect fit.
As winter rolls into spring, suit up in style with the Revival Hoodie – a super soft, layered design that will keep you comfortable and cozy pre or post run. Exterior pockets and hidden interior pockets make this hoodie a go-to for stashing ID cards, money, car keys, or head phones. And, the fun pop of color on the inside of the hood and along the seams adds a bit of flair to a monotone gray.
For the man in your life – Alright ladies, your turn to return the gift-giving favor and get your favorite running buddy a whole new outfit of his own! The men’s Distance Jogger is a go-to pant for comfortable yet stylish running. Whether warming up or cooling down, or just lounging around the house with a loved one, the Distance Jogger is a semi-fitted jogging pant with pockets and cuffed ankles, easy for pulling up or down depending on your style preference.
Pair the joggers with the Canopy Jacket on cool days – keeping rain or wind out, while also allowing the body to breath. The Canopy Jacket is perfect to have on hand all the time, as it easily packs into the left pocket – just fold and stuff. If just a layer of extra warmth is what you are going for, the Dash 1/2 Zip is another great option for your man. A super soft, lightweight pullover, the Dash 1/2 Zip feels as good as it looks on.
Lastly, tie both of your outfits together with Brooks’ new Levitate road running shoe. If you want to feel like you’re running on clouds – and who doesn’t?! – then this is most definitely the shoe for you! This incredibly comfortable running shoe provides the most energy return of leading performance running shoes, offers quick transitions on the street with a flexible arrow-point patterned outsole, and keeps your feet comfortably wrapped in their high-tech FitKnit upper fabric. The levitate shoe comes in both women’s and men’s. Brooks has long been a favorite among runners for good reason, and this shoe absolutely tops the list as one of their best!

Cadenshae
Because breastfeeding doesn’t slow down the busy new mom.
After 9 months of growing another human, for most of us moms the desire to get back to our physically active lives is strong. However, with pregnancy having taken its toll and the on-demand breastfeeding schedule of a new little one this can sometimes be tough. Making things just a bit simpler for those of us busy with baby (and possibly other children as well) is Cadenshae’s stylish and trendy line of activewear for nursing mothers.
Featuring versatile styles that can take you from the drop-off line to the doctors office, all before you get to squeeze in a quick workout, Cadenshae has a variety of nursing bras, tanks, and tops that simplify getting out and about with baby. With leggings designed for moms as well, it is easy to pair up a fashionable favorite for every day of the week.
From the wide variety of Cadenshae nursing bras available, we love the Smoothie Crop in black. This silky smooth nursing bra in a funky, pretty, pastel pattern will soon become your favorite. Perfect for pregnant or nursing women this seamless bra is supportive enough for moderate to high impact exercise, but also comfortable enough to sleep in. The stylish racerback design is ideal under any tank or tee and features one-handed clip drop down cups for easy breastfeeding along with removable padding to provide shape and protect against leaks.
On cooler days, pair the Smoothie Crop or any nursing bra with the Crew Neck Jumper in Grey Marl for a little extra warmth. Featuring hidden side zippers for easy breastfeeding access, this crew neck, lightweight, long-sleeve sweater will become a go-to for new moms everywhere. A bit dressier than a hoodie and perfect for the moms who prefer a looser neckline, this top is easy and casual to wear for a day on the town or over a sports bra or tank for a quick workout.
As the weather gets warmer, the Casual Tank is an ideal choice for wear over the Smoothie Crop or any nursing bra. Designed in a soft, spandex, cotton bamboo blend this trendy tank is moisture-wicking and hypoallergenic. The Casual Tank’s longer length, looser fit, and oversized armholes allow it to be worn by both pregnant or breastfeeding moms.
Finish off this look with a pair of Classic Full Length Leggings (also available in 3/4 length). These silky smooth, supportive leggings sport a high waistband that can be worn over the mother-to-be’s expanding belly or folded down. Versatile and with just the right amount of stretch to be comfortably worn all day, these leggings are breathable yet great for concealing any imperfections. Finding a flattering activewear outfit has never been simpler than with Cadenshae’s line for pregnant and breastfeeding moms!
