Swirlgear: Designed by a woman runner for women runners

You may or may not have noticed a new button that recently appeared on my sidebar. A few months back, I had the honor of being accepted as a Swirlgear Brand Ambassador. I had the opportunity to speak personally with the folks at Swirlgear and I loved what they had to say about the brand. 

Swirlgear's mission is provide "functional and fashionable running gear for women." The Chicago-based company is completely women-owned and most importantly offers a product that I have not seen before! I love their cuts, fabrics and designs. 

Their current product line includes a variety of styles of short- and long-sleeved shirts, hoodies, shorts and a jacket. I purchased two running shirts to start off with: 

Capped sleeve/pink camo

Capped sleeved/Pink and Black

The shirts are designed with thoughtful features including moisture-wicking technical fabric, reflectivity on the back and flat stitching. I also love how long the tops are to prevent any riding up and belly exposure.

I've worn the pink camo top a few times now, including at the Lehigh Valley Zoo 10K.

Even more exciting, Swirlgear is currently in the midst of their Swirlgear Kickstater Campaign to raise $150,000 to put their fall/winter 2013 line into production. The line will be broadened to include racerback tanks, singlets, capris and a yoga/running pant.

The funding period ends on September 18, 2013, and any amount will surely help this great company!
