Runners have an intimate relationship with their shoes - they’re the tools of the trade. With every piece of Heartbreak’s Performance Running Apparel, we include a pair of red laces. One lace tip says “LOVE”, the other “HEARTBREAK”. Changing the laces on a pair of sneakers is a commitment. In this symbolic commitment is an acknowledgment that leaning-in to pain, to challenge, to the unknown are defining of our sport. Like racing, we say of “love & heartbreak”: “The two are inextricable. In order to love deeply, you must be vulnerable. A daring risk that can bring great joy.” These laces are a gift from us and a reminder to live, love, and run boldly. Put them on your racers, your trainers, your Jordans, in your hair, on a your race bag, or wherever else you want to remind yourself to go big. Tag us @heartbreak.run and we’ll share.
