Run Little Monkey’s shirts are designed by a woman to fit the bodies of real women. Our sizing is more generous than standard athletic wear and fits women in all the right places. The fabric is a luxuriously soft blend of bamboo, cotton and elastane which is naturally anti-bacterial so doesn’t get stinky like most polyester technical wear. We’re also proudly Canadian, work with Canadian artists and manufacturers when we can. Our brand and our gear are all about having fun out there and building confidence and support for women who are or want to be active.
