Four ways to run, four running styles.
ALPEN RUN STYLE

Four ways to run, four running styles.

Of course, everyone has their own reasons for running, and the distances and locations vary from person to person. While running once became a massive craze, it is now becoming firmly established as a daily habit and part of our culture. Whether you’re just starting out, run 10 km every day, enjoy the treadmill at the gym, or are a trail runner racing through the mountains— We’ve envisioned four different ways of engaging with running and freely styled outfits using apparel found at “ALPEN RUN,” a running shop in Meiji Park. Through these four looks, we present running styles that combine functionality for running with fashion that blends seamlessly into city life.

Someone who runs 10 km in the park every day.

Carry a pink soft flask as if it were an accessory, and pair it with socks featuring graphic patterns. Even running gear designed to support your run can become a stylish accent if you have fun with colors and patterns.

A stylish runner I always pass in the park. He enjoys running about 5 to 10 km every day—whether before work or after—as part of his daily routine, and running has become second nature to him. That’s exactly why, by pairing a neon yellow “Alpen Run” logo T-shirt with the “ROCKET X 3,” making their running gear an integral part of their style. In addition to wearing clothing designed to handle sweat and movement, they choose racing shoes equipped with carbon plates and approach their daily runs with the goal of completing half and full marathons—which is one of the joys of running.
