Episode Resources

Keely’s Picks:

Sports Compression Socks by Skins - £23.50, free worldwide delivery

These I wear under my long socks to help keep my calves warm and supported, and helps in recovery.

She-Skins Sleeveless Top - £35.74, free worldwide delivery

This helps wick sweat away from my body and helps it evaporate, rather than soaking into my shirt. Looking cooler means looking calmer.

Under Armor - Women’s Coldzero Subzero Mock Long Sleeve Top - £33.97, free worldwide delivery

Unfortunately, I need to wear this far too often. Even with bare legs, having a warm torso makes a cold weather game bearable and keeps you in the right frame of mind to focus on your decision-making.

Skins Unisex Long Tights - Travel & Recovery - £51.00, free worldwide delivery

These are for wearing during flights to reduce that swelling in your lower body from the sitting and cabin pressure. This helps you recover more quickly from that general feeling of travel fatigue and reduces stiffness.

TK Pisa Skirt (and other brands)

Asics Blackheath - Black

Asics are one of the top manufacturers of athletic shoes in the world and that expertise shows in their hockey shoes. It’s rare to find comfort and performance in a black package!
