Runner’s World was at Cyber Monday Running Gear Deals 2024 Health & Fitness Director.
This innovation really puts the runner first. You’re no longer going to need to choose between grabbing a big, bulky waterproof shoe or hitting the treadmill on a rainy day. This waterproof technology is built directly into the upper of some of your favorite shoes, such as the Solomon’s Sense line or the Saucony Ride.
It’s truly invisible, you’re not even going to notice a difference between previous models that did not feature it (only a minimal weight gain). The only time you’ll notice it? When you jump in that puddle or step in that sludge on the side of the road.
This innovative Gore-Tex technology is available now on select models from a variety of brands.
