I’m not sure why it is, but every year around this time I get the urge for some new running gear.  (This is not to be confused with the fall-new-shoe-release urge).  This time of year is terrific for finding bargains on women’s running gear on favorite shopping sites.  Here are some of mine.  Do you know about a great deal?  Share it!

Oiselle

I love this company!  Sally Bergeson makes the BEST running short bar-none…the Marseille. I just picked up the Roga short (Running + Yoga) for only $22.00!  BTW – you can get Marseille on sale right now too.  There isn’t a ton of stuff on sale, but what there is (as they say) is choice.

Nike

There’s alot of great stuff on sale at the Nike site right now.  They kind of hide it (drop down the women’s menu and check out “Special Selections” and “Sale”.)  I’m not really sure what the difference is but, hey, this is Nike, right?  They don’t have to have a reason.  If you can stand to think about it, now’s the time to get some great winter running gear on this site REALLY cheap, but they also have some terrific tanks and shorts as well.  They’ve got the Nike Tempo short sleeve top for under $20.00!

Roadrunner Sports

Roadrunner is having their ginormous sale right now.  You’ve got to sift through a lot of winter stuff, but keep scrolling – because you’ll find some great deals on warm weather gear. the Echo Tank from Moving Comfort is awesome and light weight – one of my favorites - and at prices starting at under $20.00 you can afford to buy a couple!

The Running Warehouse

Awesome, amazing selection of tanks and lightweight shorts on sale.  They’ve got Nike, Asics, Moving Comfort and one of my absolute hard-to-find favorites, BOA shorts on sale.  Again, there are tremendous values here starting at under $20.00.  Check out the winter stuff too…the amazing Nike workout Capri that I can never bring myself to pay full price for is here for under $45.00.

PS: For all you skirt girls, SkirtSports is discounting some of their original SkirtSport styles…get ‘em while they still got em!  Marathon Girl is under $30.00!

Oh, you'd have to ask Sally about the level of experience and number of hours required to rep her line. I am not sure if it's a full time gig or not. You can go on the Oiselle website and contact her directly... Posted by: bmoore on Jul 12, 2008 at 09:51 PM

Great site...and I purchased a few things!! Thansk for all the sale links, but I really do like the Oiselle stuff, ity appeals to me for the same reasons it does to B.Moore! Posted by: Sarah on Jul 10, 2008 at 03:22 PM

Ooh, sounds cool, I'll check them out now! What kind of rep are we talking here? Like how many hours are needed to devote? Thanks. Posted by: Karen on Jul 10, 2008 at 01:05 PM

Yeah. I always tend to want to support local running stores and women-owned businesses - especially when they're going up against the big guys. BTW, Oiselle is looking for an experienced sales rep in Southern California. They are getting alot of distribution through local shops and Sally needs someone great to rep her here in so cali. Give her a shout or have 'em contact me if you know someone who's interested. Posted by: bmoore on Jul 09, 2008 at 08:24 PM

Sweet, I am def one to shop the sale racks! Thank you B. WOW. Just checked out Oiselle, they sound like an incredible company! Their Green mission statement is impressive as well as their commitment to quality for women runners in the face of cost. Their product line is comparable to the thought behind GAP with clean classy simple appealing lines, but specifically for women runners...thats rad. Posted by: Betty on Jul 09, 2008 at 09:48 AM
