RunnerFit
The background behind preparing this project is,
1. Discovery of inconvenience
"Can't I just focus on running?"
Anyone who enjoys running has probably faced this concern at least once.
Smartphone, car keys, energy gel... The essentials you must carry while running
often jangle in your pockets, breaking your rhythm.
Limitations of existing methods: Armbands squeeze your arm, cutting off circulation,
while regular backpacks or small bags don't fit snugly to your body, so every time you run,
they bounce up and down, causing fatigue in your shoulders and back.
Runner's thirst: We thought, "What if we could distribute belongings across the whole body,
so we could run lightly, as if carrying nothing at all?"
2. Efforts to solve the problem
"A design that becomes part of the body, not just something you wear"
We started with the mindset of creating 'running gear,' not just a simple vest.
We repeatedly tested samples by running on city asphalt and tracks for several months.
Ultra-close ergonomic design: The weight is distributed across the chest and back to reduce the load on the shoulders.
Response to intense movement: We have created a pocket structure that keeps your belongings from shaking even when sprinting at full speed.
Now, instead of cumbersome bags or uncomfortable armbands,
Supporters only need to throw on this lightweight vest and step out the door.
The project we are introducing this time
has this story.
1. [Ultra-close Fit Design] Zero bounce, an experience that feels like part of your body.
The biggest difference is the overwhelmingholding power.
To eliminate the 'bouncing phenomenon' where belongings jump up and down while running,
we went through dozens of pattern revisions.
By designing the center of gravity toward the upper body, we reduce shoulder strain
and provide a comfortable, close fit that does not compress the chest.
2. [Smart Storage] Perfect balance, so seamless you'll forget what's inside.
We didn't just focus on capacity, but also carefully considered 'where to put things.'
A safety pocket securely holds even large smartphones,
and front quick pockets let you grab your water bottle
and energy gel instantly without stopping during your run.
The internal partition design minimizes friction noise between items,
so you can focus solely on your footsteps and breathing.
3. [Breathability & Lightweight] For runners who find even 1g too heavy.
Keeps you comfortable even during long-distance running.Ultra-lightweight, highly elastic mesh material is used throughout the front.
Maximizes air circulation to quickly release heat, and even when soaked with sweat, the weight does not increase significantly.
The parts that come into direct contact with the skin are finished softly to completely prevent
skin chafing issues that can occur during long runs.
4. [Reflective Reflector] Your safety shines even at night.
High-brightness reflective reflectors that protect runners' safety even on dark roads
are strategically placed throughout the running vest.
They clearly alert drivers and pedestrians to the presence of runners,
so you can enjoy night running with peace of mind.
5. [Universal Fit]Adjustable straps that perfectly fit any body type.
Regardless of age, gender, or body shape,
anyone can experience the optimal fit tailored just for them.
Precisely designed adjustable buckles and elastic bands conform to your body curves,
providing a flexible and optimal fit that hugs your body perfectly.
Hello, supporters! This is Runner Fit.
The thrill and sense of accomplishment that comes from pushing your limits, and the perseverance and effort required to finish.
It is our way of life and the very value that 'Runnerfit' pursues.
For us, running is not just a simple exercise.
It is a continuous process of training ourselves and moving toward our goals.
Ultimately, it is a series of realizations gained through the process of achieving.
Based on all the experiences and know-how we have gained through running,
we wanted to create products that can further upgrade your running life.
That is why we started the 'Runnerfit' project.
By personally experiencing every moment of running, I have thought countless times about what is inconvenient,
and what aspects need to be improved.
Through numerous field tests, material research, and design revisions,
we completed this product with the same dedication as preparing for a marathon.
Runnerfit is more than just a good product; we are confident it will become a true running partner that helps you run farther, longer, and with more joy.
We are confident it will become a true running partner that helps you run farther, longer, and with more joy.
With Runnerfit, filled with our passion, break through your limits,
and start a new running experience!
The reason we chose Wadiz
"If you run alone, you may go fast, but if you run together, you can go far."
The most valuable lesson we learned from marathon running is the 'power of togetherness.'
Even in a lonely struggle, it was the citizens cheering on the roadside,
and the runners running breathlessly by my side that enabled me to finally cross the finish line.
This is why Runnerfit is taking its first step on Wadiz.
Because your voice completes our product.
With existing ready-made products, you had to fit yourself to what was already made.
But on Wadiz, before the product is released to the world,
We can directly listen to and communicate with supporters who truly love running, enhancing the product's quality.
You are not just a buyer to us, but the pacemaker of the Runnerfit team.
Because this is a place that recognizes the value of challenge.
New attempts are always daunting.
However, we believe Wadiz is a place that deeply appreciates the maker's passion and the essence of the product.
Together with supporters who will recognize my sincerity as I take each step toward the marathon finish line,
I want to cross the finish line of this project.
We wanted to reduce intermediate distribution and invest only in the 'essence.'
Through crowdfunding, we aim to reduce inventory burden and minimize distribution margins,
So that we can return those costs to fabric quality, functionality, and benefits for our supporters.
Our goal is to present the most overwhelming quality in the most reasonable way.
Now, we are ready to run together with you.
This funding is not just a process of launching a product,
It is Runnerfit's first marathon to make Korea's running culture healthier.
