Somehow, December forgets that there are only 24 hours in a day… Training runs squeezed between holiday concerts, baking marathons, school events, friend parties, work, and the constant question of “Did I already buy that gift or did I just think about buying it?”
If you’re also trying to fit in miles, hop from event to event, and still carve out time for one more Christmas movie while realizing your shopping list isn’t done yet… SAME. This time of year is magical, but wow, is it full.
I do have some good news–> There’s still plenty of time to grab the perfect gifts from adidas, and thanks to their partnership with Amazon Prime, everything shows up at your doorstep at prime speed. These pieces arrive so quickly that even the most last-minute gift-giver (hi, it’s me) still has time to get everything wrapped and under the tree before the big day. Faster delivery = more time for gingerbread house masterpieces, holiday romance novels, and baking all the Christmas cookies.
If you want to be comfortable:
December is basically the month of living in soft layers, and these two pieces take cozy to another level. Both are part of the adidas x Amazon Prime selection, which means if your gifting panic hits at 10 p.m. (no judgment), you can still have these at your door fast enough to wrap in time.
ESSENTIALS FLEECE LONG OVERSIZED CREW SWEATSHIRT
This crew is exactly what I want to wear when I’m sipping hot chocolate after a run or wrapping gifts late at night. It’s warm, soft, and oversized in the best way…like the holiday hug we all need right now.
Andrew has been living in this hoodie. He wears it everywhere. It’s soft, easy, and exactly his kind of everyday layer. He may never have his lower legs covered even when it is snowing but he does love a soft hoodie when the temperatures drop.
Some perfect pieces for runners:
Busy runners deserve gifts that will help them keep training through the holidays, and these items make winter running easier AND arrive quickly so they actually make it under the tree.
I feel faster just by putting these shoes on. These are the shoes you gift to the runner who’s still heading out the door in the dark, cold mornings because training waits for no one. They’re responsive, lightweight, and feel incredible underfoot. They are my #1 shoe for all speed work, tempo, and race miles.
ADI365 RUNNING CLIMAWARM LEGGINGS
They’re one of those “as soon as you try them, you know” pieces. They are so warm. They have a pocket on each leg and a zipper pocket on the back. They will be my below 20°F leggings and the ones that help me get out the door when my warm bed sounds better.
I love a lightweight layer that still protects me. This jacket is breathable, comfortable, and ideal for winter runs or walks. Wind-resistant for the win.
AND A FEW MORE THINGS THAT ANYONE WOULD LOVE:
These are the best gift for kids and teens… They work for school outfits, holiday gatherings, and every day in between. Beck was absolutely thrilled to get a pair of blue Sambas. And now the other three kids have all added a pair to their list.
They are also available with Prime (aka the answer to those “Mom, my friend has these and I really want them!” December conversations). These show up fast, which is lifesaving when you suddenly remember a cousin’s gift exchange is THIS weekend.
If you want to treat someone to a pair of shoes they’ll wear constantly, this is the pair. They instantly elevate anything-> leggings, jeans, sweats, or a holiday sweater. I love the clean, classic look.
These leggings feel like that dependable, comfortable pair you want to wear every single day. They’re smooth, flattering, and make a perfect gift for someone who loves activewear they can live their whole life in. They are so buttery soft.
The holidays are already full… So having adidas partner with Amazon Prime this season is a game-changer. The fast delivery means you can finish your gifting without sacrificing your miles, your traditions, or your downtime.
