Tracksmith may have created the most ridiculous piece of running apparel

For US$168 (international shipping not included), you too can lounge in the Tracksmith Post-Run Robe

Tracksmith brings together the worlds of running and surfing, which seemingly have nothing to do with each other.

RELATED: The first Tracksmith store is the dream runner’s hangout.

The New England-based independent running company released a post-run robe, which retails for US$168 plus US$15 shipping (excluding duty, if you’re in Canada, that translates to roughly CAD$230). A slight consolation is that with this purchase, you get a free No Days Off poster with a January purchase.

The recovery apparel, available in black and gray, is the brand’s “experiment in solving some of the post-race and post-long run problems that plague cold-weather runners.”

The apparel, designed like a pullover, is said to be a “different kind of robe” while appearing to basically be a traditional robe at the same time. Tracksmith says, for best results, “go for a run, don your robe, grab the foam roller and find a fireplace.”
