Wellness Reviews

The Merrell Moab 3 are some of the best hiking shoes I’ve ever used, with grippy 5mm lugs, a supportive Vibram sole, and a super-cushioned interior.

The Asics Gel-Kayano 33 is a reliable option for runners who need extra support, but I was left a little disappointed by the updates to its midsole.

The Columbia Tellurix Titanium OutDry are great hiking boots as they're rugged, waterproof and sport a durable build. But they aren't made for everyday wear.

The Keen Targhee Apex Mid hiking boots are comfortable, offer great support, and are waterproof — you just need to get past the design.

The TNF Altamesa 500 v2 is the most comfortable and bouncy trail-running shoe I’ve tested, and it was perfect for the varied terrain I tackled while I was on vacation.

Squishy, springy and speedy

The Garmin Forerunner 70 offers nearly all of the brand's top-tier features and insights for runners, in a supremely lightweight, comfy, and fairly priced package.

The Fitbit Air is a discreet and distraction-free (no screen) fitness tracker that's easy to use, accurate, and long-lasting. Subscription-free, it costs just $99.

The Garmin Forerunner 170 offers everything runners need to track their training plus some useful smart features, all in an attractive and lightweight package.

Like its 41 predecessors, the Nike Pegasus 42 is a reliable and good value pick for daily miles, but lacks the comfort and fun of rival running shoes.
