JackRabbit sums up our top men’s running fashion for 2020.
No two runners are the same, and that’s especially true for their personalities. While some runners like to show off the flashy colors of their crisp, fresh out-of-the-box shoes, others enjoy an all-black, muted aesthetic.
While some enjoy the fresh crisp air at 5am every morning, others barely struggle to make it out the door.
Here are the JackRabbit top men’s running fashion recommendations … the personality edition.
The Minimalist
What’s more minimalist than the all-black look? You keep it simple. You don’t want to stand out, but people DO notice you because you rock the look so well. Like a vintage wine, you will never go out of style.
