Ben and Sarah
Ordered 3 shirts and 3 pairs of socks. Shipped to Australia and arrived at my door within a week. Shirts are awesome! Light and breathable, perfect for our warmer climate. Socks are great too, absolutely stoked with the quality. Well done Ben and family, loving the clothes and really appreciate the videos!❤️
So, with running clothing I normally hold off on writing any kind of review until I’ve put it through 4-5 runs, washes and drying - as by this stage you’ll know if it’s a keeper or for the nice but no cigar pile!
I’m happy to report back, this top is a keep - it washes well, hasn’t shrank at all, holds it shape and awesome colours!
However, most importantly, it’s simply bright (important coming into the lower light time of year!) and brilliant to wear! Moves well with my body, no chaffing/rubbing anywhere, wicks sweat and allows me to keep a nice body temp without over heating etc.
Really happy with this top and will be buying another!!
For reference, I’m 87kgs, 6’1’, 42” chest and opted for a large, so the sizing chart was spot on - if you’re after a more fitted muscle fit top, you might get away with sizing down to a Medium, but I like the fit and feel of the large, and its just the right amount of room in the body for me without being baggy! For colder days, you’d be totally fine with a running vest underneath and still be comfy without being restricted.
Nice one Ben and Sarah! Thankyou!
Top quality, right size, bright colours! Worth it!
Thank you very much for your review Maksim! Great to hear you're enjoying your new tee!
As a new runner, been following Ben's videos for a while. It's one of my references, so when I learned I could buy "Parkes Running" socks I instantly pulled the trigger! I absolutely love them! They are comfy, stylish and I was able to get them in the length I love the most, sitting just below the calf, something some top brands don't offer.
Being from abroad, "suffered" a bit with shipping costs, but I wanted to give back and thank you guys for all the amazing content in some way, so I just "ignored" it. Any chance we'll get some more colorful versions? I'll be back for more either way!
The personalized card was touching! Thank you for that!
Getting it done!
Thank you for your review Ricardo! We are hoping to have some more colours soon, so keep an eye on the newsletter and the website. It's great to hear how much you like the socks and the length too. Wishing you many happy runs in your new socks!!
Run the Lyon marathon with it, it was so comfort, light, no issues with sweat, it felt great all the way.
And, the style, loved it.
Thank you very much for your review Dan!! Congratulations on your Lyon marathon run. Well done!!
I started running 4 months ago, not even being able to complete 1k. I was 105kg, a week ago I was able to run a 10k in 47.16 during a race and 47:26 during training. I was able to lose the weight through diet and movement, however this program has allowed me to train and stay consistent, with a goal in mind - this was broken down in a great format and has pushed me to achieve something that was previously impossible for me.
Congratulations on all your progress Simon!! It's great to hear how well you've done and how much your running has improved. 47:16 is so good. Kudos from us!!! 🙌
wore this yesterday at the chester marathon absolutely perfect very light , great fit couldn't even tell was wearing it , no rubbing and looks great as you'd expect from ben and got a 18 pb and sub 4
What a great photo Ian! Thank you very much for your review and congratulations on our amazing 18 minute PB! That's so good. Well done 🙌
Excellent plan, enabled me to complete my goal race this year in far better time and shape I thought possible. Looking at getting the next distance up in readiness for next year’s race.
Congratulations Darryl. What a fantatsic achievement!! Wishing you all the very best on your next adventure!
The product is amazing, made by 100% recycled polyester, material absorb my sweat very well when I run under 29 Celcius Degree with 78% humidity. I live in Indonesia btw.
The design is so good, the sizing fit well into my body and the color match perfectly with my Asics Megablast
What an awesome photo!! Thank you very much for your review and we love how well the tee is working in the humidity of Indonesia. Wishing you many more happy runs in your new tee!
