There's a reason the white sneaker has become the go-to champion for so many sneaker stalwarts and DTC upstarts alike: It's a hero product, in the most literal sense of the word. As in, it's here to save you after you swore off sneakers for all of, like, a month, before you realized there's no loafer on earth as comfortable as your favorite pair of runners. Easy to style, endlessly versatile, and somehow always elegant, the white sneaker—in leather, canvas, suede, or even some high-tech knitted fabric—is a year-round staple, and it's here to stay. |

It wasn't until Therabody (née Theragun) started running ads with Cristiano Ronaldo that I realized they want to sell these things. And not just to athletes and PTs. Sure, I knew about them through friends who played college sports almost a decade ago, but now we're getting used to having top-of-the-line tech all around us. It was those Cristiano Ronaldo ads that me realize massage guns—technically, they're called percussive massagers—are a consumer product. CR7 is no longer a Therabody ambassador—speculate amongst yourselves—but ads with the world's biggest sports star signaled how big Theragun would become. And along that same timeline, I was aware of Hyperice, which kind of mastered influencer marketing before it was the thing. I was a teen seeing Kobe, LeBron, and in-his-prime Blake Griffin sitting on benches wearing these weird-ass compression slings with HYPERICE all over them. All my friends and I wanted that weird shoulder sling Kobe wore. So, who actually makes the best massage gun—excuse me, percussive massager? Hyperice or Therabody? |
