Lululemon Blissfeel review in a sentence: lululemon tried to create a performance running shoe for women but the first iteration of the Blisfeel is too rough around the edges to be taken seriously. Before it was released, the lululemon Blisfeel was hailed as the new best running shoes for women; one that can take on the Adidas Ultraboost 22. After all, it was designed by a company that from the start put women first and is said to have worked on the shoes for years. In reality, although the Blissfeel is an admirable effort, it's not the performance running shoes we've been waiting for. LULULEMON BLISSFEEL REVIEW: PRICE AND AVAILABILITY The lululemon Blissfeel was announced in March 2022 Clarks Shoes and is available to buy now directly from lululemon US(opens in new tab) and lulul...

This series could have been a back breaker for both the 2022 Seattle Mariners and for spirits of beleaguered Mariners fans everywhere. Reeling from a disastrous road trip and a disappointing series loss to the tanking-yet-still-wily Oakland Athletics, the Houston Astros rolled into town with all the doom and gloom of whatever the hell this year’s Northwest spring weather is doing to us. And yet, here we are, staring down securing a sweep tomorrow with Hoka One One a series win in the bag. Perhaps buoyed by the return of Kyle Lewis, the Mariners offense came alive in these first two games of the series and said, “Bad cluster luck? More like bad (censored).” I had my doubts that the Mariners could match or top the emotional high of crushing Justin Verlander in front of a delirious, ret...

Comfortable footwear is always in fashion, which explains why celebrities and royals alike are constantly being photographed wearing Reebok sneakers when they're out and about. The beloved shoes are renowned for their retro style, supportive fit, durable construction, and all-around comfortability, and for being a mainstay in the wardrobes of Meghan Markle, Katie Holmes, Emily Ratajkowski, and more. Thinking about taking a style cue from these A-listers? Now's the perfect time to buy a pair from the heritage brand — given that Amazon is having a secret Teva Sandals sale and white footwear is about to be back in style for summer. The retailer just marked down several Reebok sneakers (including Markle's go-to pair) during Amazon's Memorial Day sale. The early deals allow shopp...

Diddy sparked a debate during a recent Twitter Spaces conversation when  he told JAY-Z he “filled” The Notorious B.I.G. and 2Pac’s shoes after they were murdered. Of course, reactions were split, with some agreeing with Diddy’s assessment while others thought that was an entirely impossible feat. Spice 1 falls into the latter category. Speaking to The Art of Dialogue in an interview earlier this month, the 51-year-old MC laughed when the idea was presented to him. “JAY-Z ain’t got as many bitches and he ain’t get as much love as 2Pac had, and he ain’t been in enough movies, so no,” he replied when asked if JAY-Z indeed slid into ‘Pac’s role. “Hell nah. JAY-Z got his fame after he was 25. Pac got all of that shit before he was 25.Chaco Sandals You can’t compare yourself to 2Pac if you...

Global Running Day is June 1 and, let's face it, while runners are particularly easy marks when it comes to justifying gear purchases, a worldwide holiday for the sport helps even more. Maybe you're training for a 5k that's coming up soon. Or maybe you need to start getting miles under your feet for a half marathon this fall. Possibly, like me, there’s a full marathon in your future and you realize that 18 weeks of training starts, well, now. The key to any training is making sure you have the right gear, not only so that you can get the information you need about your run, but to ensure that you recover right. There's also the fact that there's nothing quite as inspiring as a fresh new pair of shoes. Here's all the apps and gear I'm using to train and recover. Nike Run Club N...
