New Products, June 2008

Under Armour sunglasses are now in stock, just in time for our extememly sunny days! Offering several styles, these are a nice alternative to our Nike glasses.

GU Roctane is also in. Roctane’s advanced formula amplifies GU’s original Energy Gel recipe and adds new ingredients to boost the athlete’s chances of success. Higher citrate levels help speed the conversion of carbohydrates into energy and also mitigate acid build-up in muscles. Increased branched chain amino acids provide extra energy during exercise and play a key role in maintaining concentration. Added histidine slows energy-sapping acid build-up and a new amino acid complex, Ornithine Alpha-Ketoglutarate (OKG), reduces muscle damage.

Several accessories are in from Bunga Pads, including Metatarsal Pads that are worn as a sleeve on the foot, Toe Caps, Toe Spreaders and a new Knee Strap.

Camelbak has released a new product: A Performance Bottle with Strap, similar to the Ultimate Direction Fast Draw but with Camelbak’s bottle!
