THE THREADS OF HISTORY THAT WEAVE US ALL TOGETHER

THE THREADS OF HISTORY THAT WEAVE US ALL TOGETHER

Oiselle's social media specialist, Rebecca, began writing a weekly series highlighting the stories of women in athletics. After starting with some better-known athletes, she soon started following the threads of their lesser-known teammates – women whose stories deserved more attention. So, how much richer does the body of women’s sports history become if we dig in and tell more of these stories?

GIVING MENTALITY

GIVING MENTALITY

Food insecurity is a growing stressor for many families during this time of Covid, and there are so many ways to give: volunteering at a local food pantry, donating food items, donating money to food banks. I’ve been inspired by Volée members who are actively supporting programs in their communities, so I asked them where to start.

THE OISELLE GIFT GUIDE

THE OISELLE GIFT GUIDE

They love it, they really do. The daily runs, the gritty workouts, the mileage-infused friendships, and of course, the big moments and races (that will come again)! And though they might love sweat and effort, gifting them shouldn't require it! We've pulled together some of our favorites: the Oiselle designs that avid runners love to give and get.


Fabric is a lifestyle. Or maybe it's that a lifestyle can be made more enjoyable, supportive, and comfortable with high quality fabrics. From the legendary softness of Lux, to the cotton-infused quilted styles, to Bird Hug's reversible and compressive softness, they each bring coziness and warmth - no matter the season or reason.


Quality ingredients paired with timeless silhouettes are what make great lasting outerwear. Whether it's the warmth of our puffy styles, made with Primaloft® insulation, or the water- and windproof shells, including technical fabrics from Schoeller® and Pertex®, our outerwear is designed to span all the fall/winter needs, in both in sport and life.


These are a few of our favorite [runder]things. It's all about the combo of sport and style and comfort. We highly recommend Wazzie Wool bra and briefs, as they are nature's technical basics, as well as the forever softness of Lux and Bird Hug. Don't let anything come between you and your flystyle.


Thank you to all the fellas who fly with us -- at every altitude. From accessories that fit everyone to a few choice pieces made just for you, here's to celebrating our shared flight.


A little sport, a little spice. Small gifts with lots of heart.

BRAS FOR GIRLS: GET SPORTY KICK-OFF

BRAS FOR GIRLS: GET SPORTY KICK-OFF

When Oiselle started the Bras for Girls program in 2017, we knew it felt right. We had extra bra inventory and we also were paying attention to new research that confirmed our suspicions and experiences: middle school girls need to hear about breast development and need access to sports bras! So we enthusiastically embarked on our first giveaways (1,800 bras in the first 2 months). We were grossly
