Distance Runwear

Vancouver athletic shops for stylish running apparel

This specialty shop in Riley Park carries performance-focused apparel, shoes and accessories for both road and trail running. Owner Dave Cressman has been long distance running since he was 11 and is a well-known name in the local running community. Rather than offering apparel from big-name athletic brands, Dave has curated a unique collection that favours independent labels and emerging designers. You’ll find apparel from Arc’Teryx, Dynafit, Ibex and Newline made with finely crafted functional, lightweight fabrics and run-specific fits. Distance Runwear is also one of the only spots in Vancouver to find womenswear from award-winning Seattle-based brand Oiselle.
