$60 for a pair of shorts?
ASTROTURFING GET OUT!
Nice stuff. Swiss textiles that have been around but not used because of expense in building the garments. Retro look interesting but not flattering , looks a little nerdy.
Lots of great running apparel collections in the market extremely well done and well priced.
Tracksmith will have to go the way of lifestyle to survive.
Also, is everything made in MA or are the textiles from Switzerland? Can't have it both ways

Correct. The CEO lives in Wellesley, MA. Real estate is very expensive in that gentle New England town. So please be generous and support this very worthy cause.

that's why I (and probably a lot of other runners) would never buy any of this. The trick is to get the Lululemon types on to this stuff.

Of course you can. You think "made in" means that every input is literally from the soil of the commonwealth, and never leaves the borders until USPS picks up the shorts to deliver them to you?
Is an English suit not "made in England" because the fabric came from an Italian mill, and the wool came from sheep in NZ?
Reviving this thread. Any more opinions on Tracksmith clothes?
It's quite expensive but looks really nice. Better than Lululemon IMO. IF there was an LRC 20%off or something to make it feel like I'm not paying the astronomical markup I'd probably try it.
