Tracksmith Chicago Marathon Swag Drop!

It’s officially Chicago Marathon swag time and Tracksmith is coming in hot with their race kits. Always a brand to bring the class, they did not disappoint with the color scheme and design for 2025. If you are new to the running world, Tracksmith drops a new Chicago Marathon running kit each year that has the freshest colors and design aspects, plus performs at a top level.

This year’s design is dominated with the bright Chicago blue that we all know and love.

The classic singlet comes in both men’s and women’s sizing and is designed in the performance mesh that Tracksmith is known for.

“Our Chicago Singlet is cut from a breathable, lightweight mesh, crafted in a performance silhouette. This year to commemorate the Fall Marathons, we’ve taken note from some of our favorite athletes’ race day rituals – the paint-smeared sash is inspired by the likes of marathon legends Bill Rodgers and Joan Benoit, and the painter’s accessories that became routine in their race day kit.

We know when these icons broke the tape, a lot more than luck played a role in their accomplishments, but a little bit of starting line superstition never hurt anyone.” – Tracksmith website

The sizes are going quickly so if you want to wear this for marathon day, get online and place your order now. You can complete the kit with the Chicago shorts, also available in both men’s sizes with a lightweight brief liner and a 2.5” inseam, and women’s with a 3″ inseam.

The lightweight breathable mesh pair is perfect for all weather types, which is great for our unpredictable Chicago fall days. The marathon has been run in 100 degree heat and 50 degree downpours. It’s best to be prepared for whatever our windy city is going to give you.

Also included in this year’s collection is the seamless Merino Brighton Base layer, which is one of my favorite pieces that Tracksmith makes. It’s soft fabric and fitted design makes this long sleeve great for running or transitioning to brunch.

“Our Chicago Brighton Base Layer is a soft and seamless long sleeve that leverages the natural performance benefits of Merino wool – it regulates temperature, resists odor, and wicks moisture. Essential for the training build and beyond, you might not rely on it for race day, but we bet it will become a part of your routine thereafter. This limited edition commemorates the Fall Marathon in a vibrant colorway inspired by the energy of the race course, featuring the city of your achievement front and center.” – Tracksmith website

Tracksmith will have a pop up in Chicago the weekend of the marathon. Make sure to watch our social media for details about the events they have planned, which will likely included the coveted poster stamping!

Thanks to Tracksmith for creating a running kit that embodies our great city and our even greater runners. See you in blue on October 12th!
