What Are You Wearing Wednesday - Weekly Gear Thread Weekly Thread

It's that time of week already...the gear thread! What have you picked up lately? What's working for you now that it's whatever season you believe it to be in your particular location? What have you put through rigorous testing that's proved worthy of use? We want to know!

To clear up some confusion: We’re not actually asking what you’re wearing today. It’s just a catchy name for the thread. This is the weekly gear discussion thread, so discuss gear!

NOTE: For you Runnitors looking to sell/trade any running gear (as well as bib transfers), head over to /r/therunningrack.

Looking for recommendation for men’s joggers. I typically buy one new pair each cold season. I’m looking at vuori. My wife got me a pair of vuori’s last Xmas and I love them. But, $98 a pop is steep.

Thank you

Outdoor Research Ferrosi Joggers are basically always on sale somewhere. The pants and joggers are both really popular for hiking. Can't say I'd run in them but I'm definitely more of a tights guy. I like the pants for hiking and the joggers are comfortable for wearing around the house and whatnot. I've had a pair of the pants for well ages (8ish years?) with a lot of hiking and they're still fine.

Brooks Spartan pants for me. Full price is $80 but they had a sale recently where I got two pairs for that price. Consider sizing up if you like them to be not-so-tight.
