Got my first Half Maratgon done in this top yesterday. I definitely believe in the 'look good, feel good, run good' principle and boy was this tee perfect for that. Not only is it striking in design, colour and pattern, but you can tell it's also made with high quality material. Its a good enough weight as to be very durable, but not so much so that it caused any issues with overheating or chaffing. I got several compliments from other runners who asked where they could get their hands on one. I'm a medium and the fit was perfect for me, but I do like a looser, more relaxed fit. If you prefer a more fitted feel, you may want to go a size down from your usual. Thanks Ben and the team. It was great meeting you all at the National Running Show earlier this year.

Fabulous shirt in a lightweight, breathable technical material. I went for my usual size small in running shirts, and it fits perfectly (6 foot and skinny). Really love the colour scheme too!

I have worn these a few times now before leaving my review. The shorts are comfortable and fit perfectly (6 foot, 30 inch waist, size small). They wash fine and appear durable, so decent value.

The key clip is useful, and there is plenty of room for other essentials. The pockets are well positioned, and I didn't notice any bounce or movement of their contents whilst running.

These are easily the best shorts I own, and highly recommended!

Everything you want from a running top. Hardly noticeable when you’re wearing it, but others notice it and comment on how good it looks.

Great fit. Love the pockets , especially like the key clip . Must have been thinking about my dog whilst running ( see pic)

I have registered to run my first half marathon in 35 years this August! My training relied on watching You Tube videos but I now have a structured plan and hope of running my goal time!! Thank you Ben.

I ordered two running caps, they are absolutely perfect. The service is top-notch, very fast delivery. Cannot recommend this shop enough.

I have 2 pairs now and best running shorts I’ve had 👍

Spot on with size (170cm, 70kg) and very comfortable straight out of the packet. Maybe a coincidence, but ran a 10k by today, so Ben can take the credit for that!

My wife absolutely loves this women’s top, unfortunately we both chose the same style and need to check in when we leave the house to make sure we don’t look like matchy-matchy Japanese tourists. Fit is spot on and very comfortable.

At last, lightweight shorts that have useable pockets, practical space for keys (with a clip), gels, and somewhere to stick your gloves when you realise you didn’t need them.

This is a great bit of kit,fits great and very comfy.

Really nice lightweight cap, will wear for upcoming marathon.

I’ve been genuinely impressed with the Ben Parkes ankle-length running socks and I’ve ended up reaching for them far more than I expected.

For sizing context, I’m typically a UK 9.5–10 depending on the shoe brand, and I went with the Large/XL because that’s what I usually buy in other socks. I’d say I’m pretty borderline in the sizing, but the Large/XL has felt great on-foot—secure and comfortable without feeling tight. That said, I do think I probably could’ve gotten away with the smaller size as well, so if you’re between sizes it’s worth considering whether you prefer a slightly more fitted feel or a bit more room.

Comfort-wise, the cushioning is spot on. They’re well cushioned in a way that actually helps on longer efforts, but they don’t feel overly thick or bulky in the shoe. I’ve used them for runs at a range of paces and distances, including long runs up to 16km, and they’ve been consistently comfortable across 5 different pairs of running shoes. No rubbing, no hotspots, and no issues mid-run—just an easy “put them on and forget about them” kind of sock, which is exactly what you want.

One unexpected bonus: I didn’t think I’d like the pink pair, but they’ve become my go-to. They look better in person than I expected and I keep gravitating towards them when I’m picking kit.

Overall, I’ve enjoyed these socks so much that I ended up buying six pairs. If you’re after a cushioned, comfortable ankle sock that works for both faster sessions and longer steady runs, these have been a great buy for me.

All ordered products are perfect, very fast delivery. Also great communication and service, 100% recommended!
