 Oh, oh, the tow! That's it! Get it! Woo! There goes the baby. Wow! Oh my goodness. Oh yeah, how we doing everyone? Away we go. I'm on my lunch break. Gonna go get my run-in for the day. And yes, running warehouse. You almost got me. You almost got me. Key word for this vlog is outerwear. We're gonna talk all about different types of outerwear that we need as runners. But I got an ad in my Gmail last night, actually, from Running Warehouse for a kind of a throwback new balance jacket, basically. And it just looks so good. So I clicked on the ad, went to Running Warehouse. You know, again, it was like red, white, and blue. I just loved it. But if you wear size small, so a lot of you were asking how tall I am. Probably two or three people asked a couple days ago. So I'm five, six, okay? So I'm not that tall. Five feet, six inches. And because I'm not that tall, I think I'm going to save thousands of dollars in my lifetime because if you are shorter, you know the struggle. Or even if you have smaller feet, you know the struggle when it comes to buying outerwear. Like nobody has my size, like nobody has size small. It seems like, which is always baffles me because there's a lot of shorter, smaller runners out there. So shout out if you are in the, let's say, five, four to five, eight category of runners. Anyway, it was kind of funny. But I saved, you know, I saved like 65 bucks because I didn't buy the jacket last night. Anyway, just a little tidbit as we get going here. Outerwear, keyword heading to Mount. There goes the GoPro. Ah, about a bang, about a boom. Here we go. The day march is on. I now have my Janji singlet on. I don't know if I'm saying that right. We're going to talk about this singlet and my new Janji running shorts in the studio. But I just want to, I got to say, I read all your comments. I cannot always type an answer to them, but I did forget. Thank you for the reminder about the Nike Zoomfly Threes. Full review is definitely coming soon. Somebody, a couple of people reminded me in the comments yesterday when I was laying out all the shoes talking about what full reviews are on the horizon. So thank you. These were in Michael's room yesterday and he was taking a nap. So I was unable to grab them, which is why I forgot about them. So thank you for that reminder. And yes, let's do, oh yeah. Also, there's a lot of concern about this knife just so you know, dull as a butter knife, dull as a butter knife. I've had this knife for 15 years. My high school buddy, Blake, made this knife for me. He's a hunter. And so anyway, I use it to open up all the boxes. It's not sharp at all. Literally is maybe even more dull than a butter knife. Just that's why I probably struggle so much opening these boxes, but I like it. It makes me feel like Rambo. So okay, opening these boxes and just so you know, we're not gonna open up boxes all the time, but it's been a bit, you saw the UPS truck. It's been a busy couple of days here as far as, oh yes. As far as shipping goes. These two boxes I purchased just so everybody knows. Interesting. Okay, we're gonna open that one second. I see what's in there. Hold on, let me see what's in this guy. And da da da, da da da da. Okay, it's definitely outerwear. Connects well with today's vlog. Oh yes, yes, yes, yes. Okay, oh my goodness. Oh my goodness. A new running hat from Seal C-I-E-L-E. But here's the crazy thing. This hat is designed for the winter time. That's right. I'm just gonna say it's like an insulated running hat. Am I saying that right? C-I-E-L-E, I've never owned all polar tech there. I've never owned anything from Seal before. This is amazing. Of course I had to go with the green. I am, oh man. It's one size fits all and it's feeling pretty good. Feeling pretty good. Okay, also here we go. Compress sport, that's right. Oh, there it is. The next pair of compression sleeves for my calves arrived. Interesting. I've never owned these before. Compress sport, venomuscular compression technology. I think I'll put these on later today. That's awesome, of course, green and blue. And then I just did a little, I don't need another t-shirt, but I just, I had to pick it up. I had to pick it up. I like, just so everybody knows, I like colors that are loud. There's a couple of different reasons why. The reason is when I'm filming, especially out in the mountains, but also in the city, when I'm filming, if I'm wearing brown or green, all like a forest green all the time, you can't really see me running as well. So that's one of the reasons why I pick colors that are brighter, because then you can pick me out if I'm like 100 meters away coming down a big trail, you can see me coming down. So anyway, that's one of the reasons I go with bright colors. Oh my goodness. This is a tee from La Sportiva. That is awesome. Look at that. Oh, this is like, this makes me feel, it makes me think of Europe for some reason. So La Sportiva, a company out of Italy. So, so cool. Okay. Now we're going inside. Yes, D'Amore Global Running Gear has arrived. New colors. Let's go. Come on. 130. All right, everybody. Today's vlog is all about outerwear. That is a running term. And guess what arrived in the mail today? Oh my my, hey, hey, hey. Here it comes again today. Outerwear, outerwear, go, go, go. Tear it open, tear it open, tear it open, tear it open. Here we go. All right, by the big, by the boom. All right, what's in here, boys, can you tear? Yeah, Mike goes like, open that up, pull, pull, pull. Pull, pull, pull, pull. All right, everyone. Oh, the onesie. Mike goes onesie. Oh, it's so cute. That's amazing. Love it. I will see. Oh, hon, I've got something for my tush. Get it. Oh, there goes the baby. Oh my goodness. Joseph, what'd you get? What'd you get? A hoodie. A hoodie. Oh, that might be Pappas. This might be Pappas. Here, you open, Joseph, you open that one. We got a long sleeve. Joseph, is this a hoodie? All right, there you go. Hoodie for Joseph. There we go, there we go. Good times with the family. Always good to get them in the vlog. I think they are happy with their selection from the D'Amore Global Running Store. And yes, this is an updated color, just so you know. And I think in the future, I think I'm gonna do a blue color for Seek Beauty, Work Hard, and Love Each Other. So I will continue to keep you updated as the colors are expanded in the future. And yes, if you do get a T-shirt or a sticker or a hoodie, it does support this channel. It allows me to do a lot of things, like fixed broken camera equipment and travel to some of these races. So I do appreciate the support. And just so you know, the company that actually does the printing is called Teespring. So when you click on the links down below to the T-shirts, it'll take you to a separate website that is run through Teespring and it's very easy to order a lot of different things. Hoodies, you saw true love in there. I think it's called the Slouchy Sweater. Whatever that means, it's like a loose fitting sweater. I have the tank on now. Yeah, so anyway. And yes, I am working on a racing singlet. This is not a racing singlet, although some people are using it for their races, which I appreciate. But I also wanna develop a racing singlet that is more, I guess, polyester based if I can put it that way. Okay, moving on real quick to some more outerwear discussion. Uh-oh, I don't have them. I don't have them because they are inside getting washed right now. My green rabbit shorts that I wore today, they are amazing, very comfortable, but they're a little too, it's crazy. They're a little too loose fitting just so you know, I picked those up maybe about a month ago. I really enjoy them, but they just like the waistband and even that inner liner, it's just all a little too loosey-goosey, okay? So rabbit shorts, I don't know if I'm gonna pick up another pair. We shall see. Anyway, just wanted to make a note on that. And here's the deal. So, okay, where to even begin? Oh yeah, and then a couple of people were asking me, I think on Instagram about half tights. So here's my new, new balance half tights. There you go, new balance. I only wear half tights in the winter time when it's cold out in order to keep the hamstrings warm. Kinda like the calf sleeves that I now have on my legs just to help prevent pulling a muscle. So I haven't even used these yet, but I just wanted to update you there that I do love half tights in the winter time especially. Okay, and last but not least, oh, baby, oh, baby. Here we go. So these were not, so I did not buy these. These were sent to me, okay? The company, as I already mentioned, actually here is the singlet. I took it off, spelled J-A-N-J-I. And here's the shorts, floral print. It's got some roses on it. I kinda like it, a little unique and different. I like that. These are the five inch shorts. I personally prefer the three inch split shorts. I'll come back to that in a minute. Here's the deal, everybody. Watch out, buckle up. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say, these are the most comfortable running shorts I've ever owned. No doubt, no doubt. All right, but with a caveat, these are my old school throwback A6 shorts. These shorts are at least 10 years old. They might even be 13 or 14 years old. I definitely picked them up when I was at the University of Colorado, which means I have washed these at least 1,000 times. That is why they are so soft. They're one of my favorite shorts that I own. There's no holes in them. Again, they're from A6. But now, right out of the box, right out of the packaging, these J-N-G shorts, J-A-N-J-I, they're so comfortable. I don't even know what to tell you. The only drawback, only drawback is the waistband. I don't know, I wish this waistband was just maybe a little more smoother. This drawstring, incredible, incredible. It's a little bit of elastic to it. It cinches down around your waist so well. And yes, even this inner liner, and I don't know if that's the exact right term, but this inner liner, so comfortable. The actual material on the outside, so comfortable. Everybody, J-N-G shorts, watch out, J-A-N-J-I, I think. Now these are the five inch, so you're not even gonna believe what I'm gonna do here in a minute. I'm gonna actually turn these into split shorts. I don't like shorts that are not split, meaning it has a little cut on the side like these. Here we go from A6C, that little cut. Now, having split shorts does not make you faster. But for me, if you're used to split shorts, going to a short that is just one piece of material, it's a little bit of a distraction mentally, because I can feel the material rubbing on my quad. It's so strange, it's so weird. I know this is really, really detail-oriented, but so I'm actually gonna take some scissors to these shorts and turn them into split shorts with all of you. All right, I'm excited. And I'm probably gonna pick up another pair of the three inch split shorts from Janji very soon. And last but not least, that question of the day, what is your favorite piece of running outerwear right now? What is the brand and why? All right, so you might have to stop and think about your entire running outerwear collection. I'm really excited about that La Sportiva t-shirt that I picked up, but I bring this up because, yes, fall, the crisp fall temperatures are right around the corner. I cannot wait for those temperatures till I drop down into the 60s and 70s. It's gonna be so amazing so that I can use this new hat once again from Seal that is made for winter running to help keep your head warm. So anyway, that's the question of the day.
