    Work It Out In AW77, The Greatest Sport Hoodie From Nike

    You work hard- so should your clothes. The Nike AW77 hoodie, named for Athletics West (Nike's elite track and field club that year) is Nike's hardest working hoodie yet. Crafted from water-resistant French looped cotton, it's supremely comfortable and durable. The head cushioning, fully lined multi-paneled scuba hood zips up to your chin to block out the elements. Day after day, wear after wear, the ribbed cuffs and waistband hold their shape, and the body and hood will keep their form-- they're designed by athletes, for athletes, after all. Not one detail has been spared, from the windproof zippers to the top-shelf pockets and drawcords. It's quilted with insulation for warmth where you need it, and not where you don't. The interior of the hoodie is clean, with no exposed edges, so it's all about comfort. Meet your new favorite hoodie at Nike, and show it what you're made of.

    Hot In The Hive: The Sony W Series Walkman

    One would think that being both a jogger and a musicophile is a personality combo made in athlete's heaven, given all the Apple-Nike collabos and music-friendly running accessories, not to mention all the sweet hour-long cardio remixes I've stumbled across on Pandora. But running with your music device is easier said than done, unfortunately, especially if you're jogging out in the fresh air without a treadmill's shelf to perch your player upon. In an effort to keep my hands free, I've even tucked my iPod under the band of my sports bra... which kept it secure, but soaked in sweat by the time my run was over (sorry, TMI). Sure, you could always buy an armband holster specifically for your mp3 gadget, but I'm still always getting my headphone wires snagged and yanked out by bushes and mailboxes I've narrowly had to bypass. Is it just me, or should combining these hobbies be much less complicated?! With the Sony W Series Walkman, it finally is! The 2-gig gizmo combines the music player and the earpieces into a one-part device, so it's literally just a pair of headphones -- no wires to get tangled in or contraption to tuck anywhere but your ears! It functions similarly to the iPod Shuffle, only let's face it -- this is much more convenient for a girl on the go. Plus, even if you're not sold yet on the concept itself, how can you resist its hot pink design?


    Price: $69.99
    Who Found It: xgalexy was the first to add the Sony W Series Walkman to the Hive.

Here are 10 options €“ some for bigger cups and some for smaller €“ that will let you jump up and down without jiggling. Unless, of course, that€™s your prerogative.

    Just as your fashion accessories make your outfit, workout accessories can help you make the most of your fitness routine.
