Whether she’s a Rihanna, a Beyoncé or a Katy Perry kind of girl, energize her every stride with these tech-savvy earbuds.
UA Run Reflective Knit Headband
Temps are dropping and daylight hours are scarce, but you know she won’t quit. She never does. Help her stay toasty and safe on the roads with this cozy pick.
Keep her ultra-warm during her coldest runs with not one but two layers of UA’s signature ColdGear fabric. A jacquard print and contrast sleeves add style points.
The ultimate layer for running, cross-country skiing and general cozy activities. Waterproof, windproof and lightweight — don’t judge her if she doesn’t take it off till spring.
UA No Breaks ColdGear Infrared Liner
Warm on their own, even warmer with another layer on top. She won’t leave home without them. Consider getting two pairs — she’s worth it.
Warning: She’ll be so psyched to take these for a road test, she may lace them up immediately after opening.
For Him
‘Tis the season to help your runner friends set PRs, your brother get his running start and your super-fast dad keep his (slight) lead on your mile time.
