Next month, companies like Clinique, Escentual and Origins will be donating percentages of sales for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.So we wanted to give a well deserved shout out to Merrell Outdoors for giving £20,000 to Breakthrough – look out for the four special “pink” detailed shoes in Sept/Oct (Merrell are donating 10% of sales). Health, beauty and exercise are inextricably interlinked, and a very recent survey shows that exercise really does help breast cancer patients recover faster, emotionally, mentally and physically.
The special Breakthrough range includes Merrell’s unique QForm® contoured to fit women; the best-selling Chameleon Arc 2 Rival GTX hiking boot (shown); and the light as a feather Siren Vent Mid GTX walking shoe which has a special Vibram® sole, like the Chameleon.
I test-drove a pair past blackberry bushes, through stinging nettles, across fields and woods and loved how light, stable and balanced they felt. Oh yes, happy feet and no sore soles from “pounding”.
