2019 Nest Faves
So whether you're shopping for yourself or your loved ones this season, we put together a list of our season's favorites. Styles we simply cannot live without, I kid you not. The only time some of these styles come off our bodies is to go in the wash.
Love Your Legs... Our Top 5 Tights
Nothing tells us we’ve nailed a design for the season more than your love and feedback. So when Sally asked for my low down on tights, I knew immediately who I wanted to ask and why. You!
Justice is a Marathon: Introducing Oiselle x Time's UP
Today, we’re happy to announce the Oiselle and TIME’S UP partnership. In addition to getting behind their mission, we have produced our first TIME’S UP Collection, with 20% of proceeds will benefit TIME'S UP. It is a partnership that will last into 2020 and beyond.
New! Wazzoh Parkas + Wazzie Wool
Our amazing Nesters Anita (Customer Care, All-American at the University of Washington) and Mo (Design, Steepler at Kent State) are working together in another way: coaching a local high school cross country team! And they’ve got some great XC wisdom to share for athletes and parents alike.
Outer-What? New Outerwear
Outside running is good running. And outside running requires options. For the wind, the rain, the cold, the change body temp, from start to finish. It’s a design challenge - one we happily sign up for. Like that fall marathon. Buckle up, friends. This season’s outerwear is thoughtfully designed, beautifully colored, and technically excellent.
Fall 19 Color Stories
Our Fall 19 palette is mix of hots and colds. Below are just a few of my favorite pairings, though our mantra is that any pairing is a good pairing if it gets you out the door. No stylist required.
Just Wear the Damn Shorts
Shorts. In my experience women fall into two categories when it comes to shorts. They either love them or hate them. The same goes for bathing suits, crops or finding...
Does Your Bum Need a Wrap?
When I first met Sally, I was a running skirt snob…maybe a throwback to my hippie upbringing but I couldn’t understand why anyone would run in a skirt.
Extra fabric, why? Trying to look girly, why?
I was 100% shorts all the time. But, leave it to Sally to change my mind. (I’ve learned to keep my mouth zipped shut when I initially don’t vibe with a new design, because without a doubt I’ll be wearing it enthusiastically within 4 weeks. There’s a reason I’m not on the design team!)
INTRODUCING THE FABRIC FORWARD PROGRAM
It’s estimated that 10-30% of fabrics created for the garment industry end up as waste. Even the best factories often struggle to get that number below 10%. And it’s a problem that has only increased as many apparel makers have been caught up in the world of more-is-more, fast fashion.
