Even when brands send us products for editorial consideration, our thoughts and opinions are always our own.
Does a particular pair of sneakers provide enough cushioning and support if you’re training for a long-distance race?
And we get creative with our tests, too.
Does a hair growth serum really work?
Do the belts on an under-$100 treadmill maintain their traction after six months?
Does the most buzzed-about leggings lose its compression, elasticity, or opacity with repeated washing?
