The clearance of women's running apparel brings together end-of-line items for running in all weather: winter leggings and windbreakers from Elite Lab, waterproof jackets from Elite Lab and Joma, sleeveless down jackets from adidas Adizero, vests and t-shirts from adidas Adi365, Newline, Dynafit, and Rogelli, two-in-one shorts from adidas, competition briefs from Joma, and technical socks from Falke and Lorpen.
Run in all weather at a reduced price.
The bottom of your outfit should be chosen according to the thermometer. Below ten degrees, the winter leggings brushed inside, like those from Elite Lab, keep your thigh muscles warm; when the wind blows, the windproof versions, like the Elite Lab Windblock or the thermal Run leggings, add a protective panel to the front of your legs. In mid-season, the seven-eighths adidas Adi365 leggings leave the ankle exposed. As soon as the sun comes back, the two-in-one shorts adidas, which combine a lightweight short and an integrated tight, prevent chafing on the inner thighs. These clearance items sell out quickly and don’t come back.

To run in winter, dress as if it were about ten degrees warmer, as the body warms up within the first few minutes. The first layer, a long-sleeve top like the Elite Lab Core quarter zip or the Dynafit Ultra, wicks moisture away; its zip opens while going uphill to regulate heat. On top, the sleeveless down jacket adidas Adizero keeps the torso warm while leaving the arms free, or the sleeveless jacket Elite Lab Shell cuts the wind. In complete darkness, the reflective jacket Endurance Rumey makes the runner visible to drivers, from far away and at all angles.
A running rain jacket should remain light and allow steam to escape; otherwise, you'll end up soaked from the inside. The Elite Lab Shell and the Elite Lab Jago rely on a thin fabric that stops the rain and wind; the Joma London, more covering, is great for outings in light and prolonged rain. Running jackets often feature vents in the back to release heat. Look for an adjustable hood that moves with your head, elasticated cuffs, and a slightly longer cut in the back to protect the lower back. A jacket that folds into its pocket can be tied around the waist when the sky clears up.
When the temperature rises, the outfit gets lighter. The tank top adidas Adi365 or Adizero, the short Joma Record tank top, and the Newline Active t-shirt, made of airy polyester, dry in minutes; the competition briefs Joma Olimpia, designed for athletics, reduce the outfit to the bare essentials. On your feet, technical socks are just as important as the rest: the Falke RU Stabilizing provide light compression that supports the arch, and the Lorpen Hike Light in merino regulate temperature and limit odors on long runs. A fabric without cotton remains the rule to prevent blisters and irritation.
Leggings should fit snugly without compressing: they shouldn’t slide down at the waist when you run and shouldn’t crease behind the knee. A wide waistband with a drawstring stays in place better during long runs.
A sports bra with strong support, wide adjustable straps, minimizes breast movement and pain while running. Adjust it firmly but without restricting your breathing, and replace it when the elastic stretches.
Yes, a breathable synthetic fabric wicks away sweat and dries quickly, whereas cotton remains heavy and irritates the skin. Choose light colours that reflect heat, and loose or vented cuts to allow airflow to the back.
Wear fitted clothes with flat seams, like tights or two-in-one shorts, and apply anti-chafe cream to sensitive areas before long runs. Remove any inner tags that cause irritation.
Wash them at thirty degrees, turned inside out and with zips closed, without fabric softener which clogs the fibres and hinders moisture wicking. Air dry them: the tumble dryer loosens the elastane in leggings.
