Christmas is coming, but holes in toes don't have to...

I've posted this over on C25K too. But what really caught my eye was the nifty 'hole in toe' repair patch as I know quite a few of us, including me, have experienced this premature death to shoes.

(Also loved the last suggestion on the list)

I am also a fan of the last item as a post run treat! Love a browse at kit. It always intrigues me that trainers make it on to “buy this as a gift” list. I can’t imagine trying to choose trainers for someone else. How do you get the right size? I’m between a 5.5 and 7.5 depending on the brand. Not that I’d say no to new shoes as a gift!!

I think it is for people who don't do surprises (or not for this sort of thing anyway!) I've certainly been asked for contributions to running shoes and I know my brother has got himself shoes that have come out of my mother's funds, by way of a Christmas or birthday gift (and boy has he earned them...)

What a wonderful list…although I have lots of those things already! I would definitely like the big toe armour patches though!! Thank you for posting.🙂

What a brilliant gift list too! Those toe patches are genius 🤯
