MEGA New Miami Adidas Ultraboost🔥 - The Shoe and Nike/Adidas Thread.

Brooks now has the mile world record. Nice to see it with a proper running shoe company. Kerr predicted he'd get this done on this day months ago. Beast

This is a big win for Brooks marketing but I have to give all credit to Josh. It pretty unprecedented how much of his own money he puts into his craft. He’s personally paying for a team and it’s not like he’s making millions. I’d be surprised if he makes more than $500k a year.

And not that it matters but for the record, these were custom made shoes with the only Brooks part being the upper. He would never race in these shoes. And Brooks’ top runners, Josh and Emily Enfield are not obligated to wear or race in Brooks shoes nor train with Brooks. Emily wears disguised stock Nike Dragonflys. Josh has also mostly raced in Nike Dragonflys and trains in Albuquerque, not Seattle with the rest of Brooks.

The last Olympics I was definitely rooting for Cole Hocker, the American, and he upset Josh to win gold. But I really want to see Josh win Olympic gold. 2028 is probably his last chance.
 
New(er) company that makes hats. There was a separate thread on them at one point.

Most of the hat designs are nice, I ordered two. As you can imagine, I resisted the "rope hat" models.

By far the best hats around right now. I have four hats from there (two are Canes)
 
Hilarious.

I have multiple Nike hats, they are fine. ****, I have 20 year old Nike hats that are still fine.

I have probably over 100 hats, a lot of different brands. Most of them are just fine. I look very dumb in a big crown hat so I don’t like those. ‘47 is probably my favorite. Branded Bills are nice, especially for going to the pool as they are very water friendly. And as a proud Nike propagandist I actually golf in generic Adidas hats. The only newish hat I can complain about are the new Mitchell and Ness. I feel like they changed a lot recently and now they don’t fit my head like they used to.
 
Ventilation good on the fabric models or stick to trucker? That all black trucker model is smooth
I only have the five-panel and performance hat, so I can't speak on the trucker hats. The ventilation on both of those is great

Maybe I am old or old fashioned, but I struggle to justify paying anywhere from $45 to $64 for a freaking hat on Branded Bills. No thanks!
I’m not either. But unless youre trying to get something basic or for golf/baseball im not buying from Nike/Adidas either.

All my hats are usually 47… but I like strap backs (not snapbacks)
 
since undergoing the chia pet theory in hair (i.e. hair transplant), i stopped wearing hats unless im out in the sun the entire day

fwiw, hats aren't great for your hair
