Temperatures are rising and we need appropriate clothing to accompany us in training and racing, even in the harshest conditions.
The answer comes from SCOTT RUNNING, which offers us the highest quality clothing suitable for every performance; from the amateur runner to the top runner.
In particular, I am referring to the RC line, which you have already heard about when we tested the SPEED CARBON RCs. As you can easily imagine, we are looking at the Swiss brand’s flagship road running apparel.
It is important to remember that while shoes are the indispensable tool for every runner, clothing is the element that contributes most to enhancing our running experience. It is a concept I have returned to many times before but I will never tire of saying it: the right clothing really allows us to fully enjoy our favorite sport. And the quality one allows us to amplify this concept to the maximum.
The user experience
From the first moment you put on the RC RUNt-shirt and shorts, the first thing you feel is not feeling anything. Really: it feels like you have nothing on, so light and breathable are they.
By running, the technical fabric (from recycled sources) expels excess sweat, keeps the skin dry and allows air to optimize the body’s natural thermoregulation. It is precisely this last aspect that is remarkable: the T-shirt is so optimized for breathability that, placed in front of a wall, you can see every single hole but without being transparent in any way.
The special feature of the fabrics is that they are not only very breathable but also dry very quickly.
In short, everything contributes to the ideal clothing for any run, from training to racing.
But that’s not all
Let’s now take a very long leap and head from Switzerland to the House of Champions, in Iten, Kenya.
Right there, Alistair Davidson founded the Braveheart Runners Foundation: a foundation that not only empowers some boys and girls to run and realize their dreams of becoming top runners, but also supports them in school, training, and everyday life.
SCOTT decided to support this project and a 9-member team was born, which will compete in both road and trail races this year. Yes, because the Swiss brand will also accompany them offroad.
This journey will be told in a beautiful webseries, the first episode of which you can see below. And yes, they use RC RUN clothing as well.
