If you’re a runner and you’re not in the midst of training for a marathon, chances are you have a 5K or 10K next weekend, right? During the summer running season you can never have too many tees and shorts. Since you’re always sweating in them, they go through a lot of wear and tear and could end up getting ditched after only a few months.

So choose recycled workout wear so you don’t feel bad if yours end up being disposable. Start with a Patagonia Capilene T-Shirt. Capilene is a green fabric, it’s just a fancy term for recycled polyester, that’s breathable and moisture-wicking–percet for hot and humid summer runs.

Next go for Patagonia Men’s Long Haul Runners, which are made from 50% recycled polyester. They’re a great style for distance runners because they’re made to reduce the uncomfortable chafe factor and they have an eco-friendly Capilene liner that’s moisture-wicking.
