The Pace GEAR Guide: Must-Have Running Apparel for Your SG Crew
Running in Singapore isn’t just about splits and Strava kudos. It’s about the crew, the camaraderie, and yes—showing up looking like you mean business. Whether you’re sweating it out with The High Panters, clocking Marina Bay loops with your Pace kakis, or rallying at MacRitchie, the right gear makes the run (and the post-run hang) that much better.
Here’s the kit that blends performance, style, and that little edge of exclusivity your crew will notice.
Ciele Athletics: Caps That Rule the Tropics
Every Singapore runner knows the cap is non-negotiable. Enter Ciele Athletics, the Montreal-based brand that’s rewritten the headwear playbook. Their COOLmatic™ mesh keeps you cool in 90% humidity, while the bold colourways and reflective hits mean you’ll stand out on night loops around the Bay. The Ciele GoCap is basically a uniform for crews who run hard and look good doing it.
SOAR Running: Precision Meets Performance
When conditions demand more than just good looks, SOAR Running steps in. Designed in London but tested in every climate, SOAR kit is engineered with technical fabrics that thrive in Singapore’s heat and humidity. The SOAR Race Vest is feather-light, quick-drying, and cut for speed—perfect for chasing PBs at Marina Barrage or the Standard Chartered Marathon.
Pit Viper: Sunglasses With Attitude
Sun blazing down at East Coast or reflecting off Marina Bay? Pit Viper has you covered—literally. These aren’t just performance shades; they’re a personality upgrade. With UV400 protection, bold frames, and a retro edge that screams “don’t mess with my crew,” Pit Vipers turn every run into a statement. The Pit Viper Originals balance function and fun, making sure you see the road clearly and get spotted from a mile away.
Bandit Running: The New York Cool Factor
You know that runner who always looks great, even when they’re just waiting for the green man at a crossing? Chances are, they’re in Bandit Running. With sharp detailing and fabrics built for performance, Bandit turns heads while delivering on the miles. The Bandit Stamina Square Neck One-Piece isn’t just for race day—it’s a statement piece.
Built For Athletes: Because Your Bag Speaks Too
Let’s be honest: your bag says a lot about you. Built For Athletes backpacks are rugged, versatile, and unapologetically bold. With room for gels, towels, shoes, and maybe a teh-peng or two, they’re perfect for run crews on the go. Add a custom patch and suddenly, you’ve got your crew’s signature stamped in Cordura.
Why Your Crew Will Thank You
Running gear is about more than function—it’s about identity. When you show up with kit that’s built for Southeast Asian conditions and looks this good, you raise the bar for your entire crew. And nothing motivates like collective style and performance. Take a look at Atlas Collectif (pictured above) for example - That's a running apparel brand that has the chops to make every run a statement.
So, Singapore runners, assemble. Shop the exclusive collections at The Pace @ Funan or online. Don’t be that friend still slogging in sweat-heavy cotton while the crew looks and feels next-level.
