The Saucony Elite Singlet is a featherweight top that will be perfect in the heat of summer. The singlet has a loose fit and is made from an ultralight microfiber polyester, which made testers’ feel that they were wearing next to nothing on top, while remaining fully covered. Saucony has incorporated a unique grid design within the fabric which will also aid in moisture management. We tested the top in indoor high intensity exercise (treadmill running, spin class, etc.) because it is winter in Colorado, and found that we remained cool and dry. The best test of this garment will be on runs in the humidity of the south, come summertime. The Elite Singlet has a feminine pattern and the colors coordinate with the Elite Short. Overall, the Elite Singlet is a nice running top that could also be used for backpacking due to its wide shoulder and the off-set seams, which prevent chaffing.

Shannon, our fabulous female tester, takes gear testing to a new level for women. When not at work or school, she is most likely training for a marathon, climbing one of Colorado’s tallest peaks, riding her road bike, or skiing down a mountain slope. Like many women, Shannon gets cold easily, therefore, we try to test the best all weather gear to help her stay warm and dry during all day outdoor pursuits. In the warmer months, Shannon enjoys exploring the Colorado backcountry with her friends and dogs and attempts to escape for as many trail runs as her schedule allows. Shannon is a great women’s tester because she gives readers true insight into how a product may perform for an active woman.
