Gear By on Mar 15, 2013

When you’re focused on your workout, there’s nothing more annoying than dangling headphone wires tickling your neck the way your girlfriend used to until she broke up with you and now that’s why you’re in the gym every day cuz you’ll SHOW HER! The Klingg ($20) is a 1 oz. weather resistant pair of neodymium magnets that go through your shirt and provide a simple and secure cord management system. No ear buds falling out. No cords slapping you in the face. Because the only time you should be watching The Wire is when it’s on HBO. (Well, was, from 2002-2008.)

The Zemgear 360 Ninja Split-Toe Running Shoes ($50-$60) features include a unique split-toe design, tech bands in the upper for stability, and Gecko-Grip rubber pods for traction. At just 2.5 ounces, they also weigh less than the amount of mental anguish that most psychopaths carry around with them.
