Fountain Valley, CA, November 1, 2019 – Nathan Sports, the leader in running hydration and visibility, is proud to launch the Hypernight Collection of running accessories. This series of gloves, hats, beanies, and headbands feature reflective details to keep you both warm and visible on those winter runs. With November being Run Safety Month, it’s a great time to practice safe running habits–which start with the tools you carry with you. According to the National Safety Council, “the chances of being struck and killed as a pedestrian increase by 1,100% after dark.” And although there is an 800% drop in the risk of being hit by a vehicle if you wear visibility gear, only 40% of runners attempt to be visible at night. With this new product line, Nathan hopes to raise the conversation of safety among the run community. Preparation is a key component to the run safety story, and visibility gear is a great place to start.
Reflective Convertible Glove/Mitt
This wind-resistant, convertible running glove/mitt is the best way to keep your hands warm on the trail. Start off your run with the mitts on for optimal warmth, and then tuck away as you get moving. Conductive TruTouch™ technology makes these gloves smartphone compatible. And most importantly, the high visibility graphics will ensure you are seen by others around you.
Insulated hydration is key for winter activities. While most people think to use insulated flasks for keeping water cold during the summer, it is equally important in the winter to prevent your water from freezing. The VaporHowe (women’s) and VaporKrar (men’s) vests both feature a 2L insulated bladder. This vest has a waterproof phone pocket up front and a back kangaroo pocket for stashing layers, making it the perfect pack for your winter adventures. Like all Nathan vests, the Howe/Krar have reflective hits for 360-degree visibility.
As a unique alternative to the traditional headlamp, this light can be worn around your chest, waist, or removed to clip anywhere on your body. For optimal visibility and depth of field when running at night, you should always use multiple sources of light at multiple angles. The Luna Fire gives the option of many different angle placements depending on where you choose wear it.
