The look is “more Spider-Man” than weekend warrior, but Salomon’s EXO Sensifit running gear could make anyone’s exercise routine less of a chore. A rubberized mesh is built into the pants shown here, creating a “skin-tight exoskeleton” that supports muscles and reduces the vibrations from each foot strike, thus staving off “thigh fatigue” and similar afflictions. EXO shorts are made with a high waistline to provide abdominal support. But use them with discretion. “Nipple-high shorts look bizarre if you run shirtless.”
