Rabbit is a female-owned, California-based firm that aspires to offer among the greatest operating attire available on the market. The corporate title is a nod to the spirit of each the furry, pleasant animal and the selfless athletes who give the remainder of us somebody to chase. As lifelong runners, the homeowners have been particularly impressed to sort out the problem of perfecting the operating quick.

On this article, we assessment these eight items of rabbit ladies’s attire:

The thoughtfulness that went into the design of every product I examined is obvious. I really love all of them. I’m 5 foot, 7 inches tall, weigh 135 kilos, and examined a dimension medium in all the next items of attire.

Shorts

Creating the “good” operating quick has been a specific ardour of rabbit and we couldn’t be extra happy about that. One in every of our favourite particulars of the overwhelming majority of rabbit shorts is the inclusion of a zippered pocket.

Having participated in a number of too many key fob search-and-rescue assist efforts, I deem a easy zipper comparatively invaluable for the storage of keys and bank cards. Whereas every of the next quick types are distinctive, all are undeniably mushy, breathable, chaffe-resistant, and quick-to-dry.

Every additionally homes a quick liner, giving one the comfort and liberty to modestly go commando. What’s to not love?

Rabbit Summit Chasers 2.5” Shorts

The rabbit Summit Chasers 2.5” ($70) shorts have changed what was generally known as the rabbit Grime Pounders. These are comprised of 87% polyester and 13% spandex. The light-weight materials successfully wicks away moisture and dries rapidly.

The waistband is flat and large, making it remarkably snug. Two inner entrance waistband pockets and two aspect pockets supply ample storage for gasoline, trash, and many others; these are as well as, in fact, to the aforementioned and extremely esteemed, zippered again pocket. The again zippered pocket is now diagonal, which I personally don’t desire over the straightforward horizontal zip of the older type.

Nevertheless, very like their predecessor, the practicality and luxury of the Summit Chasers hold them in my frequent flier pile. The medium on this type does feel and look looser than the medium dimension of different types (match is in keeping with its predecessor.) Nevertheless, a constant rabbit medium, the medium on this quick stays essentially the most acceptable dimension for me.

For those who are inclined to fall between sizes on this model, this is perhaps an merchandise to dimension down. Regardless of feeling a lot roomy, the drawstring successfully retains these shorts in place.

Rabbit Gasoline n’ Fly 2.5” Shorts

The rabbit Gasoline n’ Fly 2.5” ($75) shorts are arms down my favourite of about six new-to-me types of shorts examined final summer season. These don’t home all of the helpful long-haul gasoline and trash pockets that the Summit Chasers do, however do include 4 small pockets within the transient liner and the always-trusty rear zip pocket.

The quick materials is 91% polyester and 9% spandex; an ever-so-slightly totally different ratio of polyester to spandex (89:11) makes up the Polartec Energy Dry transient liner. These shorts are designed for racing; maybe it’s simply the enjoyable perforations, split-leg design, or tropical Bermuda colour, however they do put some pep in my step. Many street and mountain miles have examined the sturdiness of those trusty favorites, which stay good as new.

Rabbit Repeats 4″ Shorts

I like the retro type of the rabbit Repeats 4″ ($60); these guys take you again to the nostalgic observe days of your youth however with fashionable efficiency know-how.

The Repeats shorts are made with rabbitDRY, which consists of 88% polyester and 12% spandex, a glossy and sustainable little mixture that makes use of a brand new recycled espresso grounds printing know-how. Who knew my favourite morning bevvie may very well be repurposed right into a quick-drying woven marvel that’s designed to cut back the condensation charge if you sweat and supply odor management?

The fabric is skinny and perforated, but someway stays resilient. I’ve zero put on and tear to report on any of those shorts, regardless of closely counting on all of them summer season.

Along with that again zipper pocket, the Repeats shorts even have two inner entrance pockets and one inner again pocket, every open-topped pockets which might be giant sufficient to stash a number of gels. The inner again pocket is described as a key pocket, however I’ll personally proceed to go for holding my keys zipped within the exterior again zipper pocket.

Whereas I examined the four-inch inseam model, these do are available a two-inch possibility, the rabbit Repeats 2″ ($60).

Rabbit Smashems 2.5″ Shorts

The rabbit Smashems 2.5″ ($80) are rabbit’s final high-performance path quick. Just like the Repeats, these are made with rabbitDRY (88% polyester, 12% spandex); the fabric is just not visibly perforated just like the Repeats, so they give the impression of being totally different regardless of comparable know-how. I had severe belief points with something shy of a four-inch inseam previous to testing the shorter Smashems 2.5″ shorts.

One specific summer season day, a pal and I made a decision to take the attractive 40-mile Rogue River Path from our valley to the Oregon coast; I wore the Smashems out and in of waterfall swimming pools and thru the recent canyon partitions and not using a single hitch in my giddy-up. I’m undecided I’d have the arrogance to decide on a 2.5-inch inseam for say, the 100-mile race I used to be coaching for on the time, however I’d contemplate it. You probably have comparable reservations, there’s additionally a four-inch inseam out there within the rabbit Smashems 4″($80).

The storage capability of the Smashems shorts is actually outstanding and one thing akin to a full-on waistbelt, however extra snug. These path shorts sport 5 giant built-in pockets plus the again zipper pocket; storage alternatives primarily run the circumference of the flat, large, mid-rise waistband.

The three entrance pockets join, so you could discover that your gels migrate round a bit, however stay readily accessible. An inner draw wire maintains a safe match even when loaded up with goodies.

Maybe much more marvelous, the Smashems have rear elastic loops, lined with silicone grip, that may safe your poles and free your arms on lengthy descents. With skepticism, I’ve stashed my poles in these loops for hours with 1000’s of toes of elevation change, considering it could absolutely drive me nuts to have them driving round again there.

Actually, it’s simple to overlook about them. I’ve by no means taken the time to determine how one can quiver my poles into my operating vest the best way they’re meant to be saved there. The loop system by way of the Smashems is simple and senseless, precisely my type when racing, adventuring, and extra.

Additionally out there are the lads’s equal, the rabbit Shredders 5″ shorts.

Tops

The primary rabbit prime I acquired was a Miwok 100k finishers’ shirt in 2017. Whereas nearly all of my race shirts have been handed alongside through the years, I proceed to put on that one all summer season, each summer season. The model was far much less acquainted to me then, however I’ve discovered over the previous couple of years that I’ve but to fulfill a rabbit shirt I don’t love.

Rabbit’s aim with their line of light-weight, perforated shirts was to take “essentially the most snug operating tee in existence” and make it lighter and extra breathable by including perforations; I consider they achieved simply that.

There are at the moment three totally different shirts on this line, the rabbit EZ Tank Perf Path ($45) tank prime, rabbit EZ Tee Perf SS Path ($45) short-sleeve shirt, and rabbit EZ Tee Perf LS Path ($50) long-sleeve shirt.

For those who tried their attire in previous years, maybe you’ve additionally observed that sizing has advanced a bit. The medium-size shirt from a number of years again undoubtedly feels smaller, extra like a real small, than the medium shirts I just lately examined. In my view, all three of those shirts match true to dimension.

Rabbit EZ Perforated Path Tank, Tee, and Lengthy Sleeve

I acquired these shirts in the course of our sizzling summer season months and a comparatively high-mileage coaching plan. I feel I’m self-aware sufficient to acknowledge that when understanding greater than as soon as a day, a number of days per week, my hygiene efforts begin to slip a bit. So, for higher or for worse, I’ve been elated by how sweat-wicking and fast-drying the perforated EZ line is, to not point out their consolation and match.

Shortly after receiving these, I known as a pal to admit that I had not showered or modified my garments since three exercises prior, however was so happy with how accommodating this line was, I hardly felt responsible about it. Thus, I’ll emphasize rabbit’s warning that these are “really easy to like, it could be exhausting to take [them] off.”

The entire shirts are a mix of 94% polyester and 6% spandex. The medium in every of those cuts matches nice, by no means feeling boxy or clingy.

Now that fall and cooler climate has rolled in, I’ve been getting extra mileage out of the long-sleeve shirt than the short-sleeve and tank variations. The long-sleeve shirt has been an excellent alternative for runs across the 40-degree Fahrenheit vary, when a brief sleeve doesn’t appear to be sufficient, however I worry getting overheated and sweating by means of an extended sleeve.

The perforated material continues to wick and dry, providing the additional materials you could keep heat whereas stopping you from getting chilled by your individual elbow sweat.

Throughout our smoke season this summer season, I observed the lengthy sleeve would subtly take up a little bit of the smoky air and make me odor like I had been downwind of a campfire. This “downside” was undetectable to my partner and never past the assistance of an OxiClean soak, however did appear considerably particular to that shirt on the time.

If rabbit decides to humor us and replicate these shirts in further colour choices, I’d like to personal a number of of every!

Rabbit Excessive Nation Tank Prime

Maybe essentially the most distinctive of rabbit’s path apparel is the “efficiency plaid” rabbit Excessive Nation ($70) snap-front tank prime. If you want one shirt to put on for a development of actions, together with however not restricted to, morning espresso, climbing a mountain, and blissful hour, this one does all of it.

I’ve already disclosed my shameless tendency to leap from one process to the following with out giving a lot thought to what I’d appear to be. Maybe lots of you possibly can relate and this is the reason rabbit markets this shirt as one thing we don’t assume we even need, however we do actually really want.

Created from 88% recycled polyester and 12% spandex, this tank will breathe, dry, and stretch. It does all of the issues whereas making it appear to be you didn’t costume solely to work out.

The again panel is totally vented with perforations, a characteristic I’ve discovered particularly useful beneath a operating vest or youngster provider. Just like the perforated EZ line, the medium matches nicely, not boxy, clingy, or overly form-fitting.

For males, it’s also possible to get the lads’s rabbit Excessive Nation tank prime.

Rabbit Strappy Pocket Bra

The rabbit Strappy Pocket Bra ($55) is designed to offer average assist for runners with A/B or B/C cups, whereas comfortably carrying most telephones, or the rest you would possibly must stash in a again middle pocket with minimal bounce. I’ve been very happy with the assist supplied, traditionally trending on the B/C finish of the cup vary.

I’d vouch that this bra is extra supportive than most non-encapsulated operating bras I’ve worn and dries in a way more respectable timeframe than an encapsulated operating bra.

Since turning into a mother, I’ve not often been in a position to run and not using a cellphone helpful; having the ability to stash it within the bra pocket has been a game-changer! Phrase of warning, nonetheless, if positioned screen-side-in, the delicate bounce that happens could disable your touchscreen and defeat the aim of carrying a cellphone to remain reachable.

If positioned screen-side-out, the state of affairs is good, a lot so, that like lots of the different items on this line-up, the Strappy Pocket Bra has grow to be one other multipurpose merchandise that you just want a couple of of.

I discover myself milling about my property, cellphone stashed on my again, hands-free to grab a toddler or feed a goat. It is going to slide out comparatively simply should you’re bending all the way down to tie a shoe, however the beneficiant pocket dimension additionally makes it simple to get the cellphone in. Albeit, I often want each arms to stash it.

The fabric is a mix of 76% polyester and 24% spandex, designed to be light-weight and quick-drying. It comes with two detachable inserts, which at the very least initially, appear emigrate round much less within the wash — a pet peeve of mine — than the everyday insert. Like most rabbit attire, machine wash chilly and tumble dry low is really useful for longevity.
