SOCKS ROCK | Buy 3 Pairs of Select Socks Get 1 FREE - All December Long!
Did you know that on a 50-60 degree day, the foot dispenses about a shot glass of sweat per mile? Regular cotton socks absorb moisture, which can put a real damper on an otherwise perfectly good run. And during the winter months, it's important to keep your feet warm and dry in the colder temperatures. We have plenty of great moisture wicking sock options to best fit your fitness needs, so allow us to make the right recommendations for you.
During the month of December, we are now offering bulk pricing to get you a weeks' worth of socks at a better price. Purchase 3 select socks and get the 4th one, of equal or lesser value, FREE!

FEEL MORE WITH LESS | Brooks New PureProject™ Running Shoes
Brooks has launched the 3rd generation of their ever popular PureProject line. Most of the updates are made to the upper but some changes were also made to the platform as well. The new Brooks Ideal Heel is more rounded to provide better transition to a mid-foot strike. One big, and what we feel is a good change, is the re-positioned split toe, which has moved from just between the big toe to between the first two toes, allowing the toes to move more independently. The Cadence, Connect and Flow are all slightly narrower in the midfoot and have just a bit more room in the toe box. Here's a breakdown of the updates:
