Product Review: INKnBURN's Sweater

INKnBURN launched a new "sweater" this year...the Navy Holiday Sweater Long Sleeve Tech Shirt.  I love the design and had to have it for my holiday races.  I also purchased last year's release, the Holiday Sweater Vest Sleeveless Tech Shirt.  The ugly sweater craze this year was fun but INKnBURN's sweaters are far from ugly.  They're cool looking and fun to wear.  I was inspired to write an acrostic poem to convey just how cool the INKnBURN sweater is to me and why we all need this in our collection.

SWEATER

Santa Monica-Venice Christmas Run!  I ran the 10K and PR'd in this outfit!  Yeah!  I ran the 5K afterward, in the rain, and still felt good in my gear!
S is for seasonal.  Wearing the sweater is perfect for the holidays!  I ran several holiday themed races this year and sported the Navy Holiday Sweater and Sweater Vest proudly!  You can continue to wear the sweater throughout the year though because it'd be awesome to have holiday cheer all year long!


Holiday Half Marathon in Pomona!  I ran into fellow ambassador, Linzie, at the start!
W is for wicking fabric.  INKnBURN's gear never leaves you wet and oddly sweat stained.  (You know what I'm talking about!  I have photos wearing a tech shirt with stains on my front side that were not attractive!)


My outfit helped my running club win Best Dressed Running Club at the Holiday Half!  We won $250 for the club!  Awesome!
E is for excellent and exceptional quality!  INKnBURN's apparel is all well-made and extra care is taken to make sure each piece is just perfect. The designs are methodically placed and sizing is just right.


Holiday Half Marathon!  I got lots of compliments during the race and it was fun to see so many runners dressed up!
A is for art on apparel!  Wearing INKnBURN will make heads turn as people study the designs and color.  Each design has a story behind it, too.  


Ugly Sweater 5K in Los Angeles in my not-so-ugly sweater and Red Denim Shorts!
T is for tremendous.  It is a formidable task to create new, awe-inspiring designs.  INKnBURN's goal is to bring more color, originality and innovation into the world of workout gear.  This is not an easy thing to do.  Yet this small company is doing it and everything is made in the good 'ol US of A!


Operation Jack Half Marathon at Dockweiler Beach.  I saw several INKnBURN sweaters at this race!
E is for entertaining!  Every time I wear the Holiday Sweater or Sweater Vest, I get tons of compliments.  At a race, someone asked, "How did you wear that sweater the whole time?"  It was a warm 80 degrees in SoCal in December.  They really couldn't tell I was wearing a tech shirt!  Awesome!


Ugly Sweater Run!  I was cozy by the fire in my sweater!
R is for relaxing fit.  INKnBURN's gear is comfortable to wear and never has you pulling tags (because there aren't any) or wishing for a longer length or lower collar line.  The fit and feel is incredible.
Turkey Boogie race in Santa Monica!  Sweater Vest with Denim Skirt.
I hope you can get your hands on the Holiday Sweater, Sweater Vest or any of INKnBURN's awesome gear.  As an ambassador, I am not paid to write this review.  I'm just a big fan of the product and am happy to spread the word about gear that makes me happy.  I feel good when I wear INKnBURN and am more motivated to run!  What more can I ask for?
