Run to your heart's content with Title Nine's curated collection of Oiselle running clothing and gear. This next-level activewear brand was developed by and for female athletes in an effort to produce running clothes, including compression tights, high waist leggings, drawstring shorts, active pants, water-resistant jackets and racerback sports bras to help us hit our stride, plus gear like mittens, headbands, and socks that don't get in our way while we're running. Title Nine and Oiselle share similar values, especially when it comes to supporting other women and the transformative power of sport, so we make natural partners!
Who founded Oiselle?
Founder and CEO Sally Bergesen started the Oiselle brand in an effort to create clothing for everyday athletes to help us go the extra mile. Using quality performance materials with softness, stretch, durability, and technical properties to control heat and sweat management, Bergesen and her team create supportive sports bras, smooth-waisted running shorts, jackets, leggings, tights, tanks tops, and long sleeve shirts that feel like second skin and that make going on a run truly breezy. Oiselle's team has thought of nearly everything, meeting the needs of women athletes everywhere. For example, Oiselle's running leggings and shorts have ample pockets to stash our running cargo - pockets big enough for our phone, a key, and even a small snack. Comfort is a given with Oiselle's women's running gear. Whether it's a long sleeve t-shirt, a breathable tank top, a pair of must-have running shorts, or leggings, Oiselle running gear is made with breathable, wicking materials that don't pinch or restrict women's movement.
What does Oiselle mean?
The word Oiselle (pronounced wa-zell) is French for "bird". The running apparel brand is inspired by the feeling of weightlessness that runners know and love—when our legs go fast and our heart goes free. Our selection of Oiselle tights, active pants, leggings, and athletic apparel provides breathable running gear for those of us who love to move, run, and fly.
Where is Oiselle based?
Located in Seattle, Washington, Oiselle's weather-resistant, moisture-wicking running gear is made for all kinds of weather—from breathable sweat-wicking running shorts and tank tops perfect for long runs on hot days, to merino wool running gloves, and water-resistant pullovers and base layers perfect for cold weather adventures.
No matter where we're running, Oiselle's running gear for women keeps us going with high-performance, high-quality athletic apparel and gear that makes sure we always get our run in.
What Makes Oiselle Unique?
Oiselle’s running clothes are a game-changer in the world of performance apparel, and they stand out for a lot of reasons. Here's the lowdown on why they’re extra special and beloved by athletes everywhere:
1. Designed by Women, for Women: Oiselle makes gear is created specifically for female athletes, with thoughtful cuts, fits, and fabrics that support your body. The fit is made to move with you, whether you're sprinting or stretching, without compromising on style or comfort.
2. Performance-Driven Fabric Tech: We’re talking high-performance fabrics here, folks. Oiselle uses moisture-wicking, breathable materials that keep you dry, cool, and comfortable no matter how intense the workout gets. These fabrics stretch, support, and recover—because no one has time for gear that holds you back. And those fabrics? They're tested and proven to stand the test of time, not wear out after a few miles or washes.
3. Built for Every Movement: Whether you’re running hills, doing speedwork, or even taking a yoga class, Oiselle’s clothes are designed for movement. The cuts, the seams, the strategic placement of mesh panels—all of it is intentional. Nothing pinches, rides up, or distracts you when you’re in the zone. These clothes don’t just look cute on the hanger; they work with you as you crush your goals.
4. Sustainability with Purpose: Oiselle is deeply committed to sustainability and ethical production. They’re not just about looking good on the outside—they’re about doing good too. With eco-friendly materials, an eye for reducing waste, and a commitment to fair labor practices, Oiselle brings performance with a conscience.
5. Powerful, Bold Aesthetic: Oiselle combines functional athletic wear with bold colors, prints, and empowering designs that make you feel like you could take on the world. This isn’t your average drab workout gear—it’s a reflection of the powerful women who wear it. Whether it’s their signature print tights or the eye-catching crop tops, Oiselle gear isn’t just about performance; it’s about owning your strength and feeling confident while you do it.
How should I care for my Oiselle running apparel?
Caring for your Oiselle running apparel is key to making sure it lasts and continues to perform at its best. You’ve invested in high-quality gear, so let’s treat it right! Here’s how to keep it fresh and functional for the long haul:
1. Wash With Love (and in Cold Water!): Oiselle’s fabrics are built to withstand a lot, but hot water can wear them down quicker than a sprint to the finish line. Stick to cold water (or lukewarm at the most) to preserve the integrity of the materials, colors, and stretch. It helps prevent shrinkage and fading, so you can rock that bold print for years to come.
2. Skip the Fabric Softener: You might love the idea of soft, fluffy clothes, but fabric softeners can break down the moisture-wicking properties of your gear. We know—you need that sweat-wicking power to keep you comfortable on your run. Skip the softener, and your gear will thank you by keeping you dry and fresh.
3. Gentle Detergents Only: Use a gentle, sportswear-friendly detergent to avoid harsh chemicals that can break down the fabric. Your clothes need all that moisture-wicking, breathable magic to stay in place, so treat them with care and opt for something that’s mild and effective (like an eco-friendly detergent). Avoid bleach—it’s a no-go for performance fabrics!
4. Turn Your Gear Inside Out: Before you toss your Oiselle gear in the wash, turn it inside out. This helps protect the outer fabric and keeps those bold prints looking fresh longer. Plus, it minimizes wear and tear on the seams. You’ll also protect the reflective details if you like to run in low-light conditions!
5. Avoid the Dryer (Or Use Low Heat): Air drying is the way to go for your Oiselle running clothes. The high heat of the dryer can damage elastic fibers, reducing the stretch and support your gear provides. If you must use the dryer, opt for a low heat setting and remove the clothes as soon as they’re dry to avoid overheating the fabric. A clothesline or drying rack works wonders for preserving the longevity of your pieces.
6. Give It a Gentle Spin: Running clothes get sweaty, and you need to get that moisture out! Give your Oiselle gear a gentle spin in the washer to remove as much moisture as possible. If your laundry load is heavy, try using a mesh bag for delicate items to keep them from getting stretched or snagged.
7. Quick Rinse After Intense Workouts: If you’re coming straight from a tough training session, rinse off your gear with cold water immediately after use. Sweat, salt, and chlorine from pools can build up and degrade the fabric over time, so giving it a quick rinse helps keep it fresh and ready for your next run.
Treat your Oiselle apparel right, and it will reward you with peak performance and style for many miles to come! Keep it clean, keep it cool, and keep crushing it.
