The Pick: The only running shoes a gentleman needs

Introducing the ultimate trainer: Nike Free RN Flyknit

With the 2016 Olympic’s opening in Rio today, athletic fervour is sweeping across the country once again, and there’s no better time to get involved with a little sport. The Nike Free RN has been developed to mimic the shape of the foot’s natural posture, allegedly inspired by a group of Stanford athletes who train barefoot, and is one of the most comfortable trainers out there. Made from lightweight and breathable mesh, the trainers’ incredible sock-like fit keeps your feet cool, while the ultra-flexible sole cushions your feet and adds a new dimension of dynamic flexibility. They come in nine different colour combinations, or if you’re feeling really flashy you can even customise your own pair. This summer is the time to get out there, gentlemen.
