Every detail matters when you push your limits. That’s the belief behind EOS Elite, an Irish brand created by athlete Lorcan Healy. Now available at 53 Degrees North, the range includes performance-driven running vests. You can buy them online or in all four stores: Carrickmines, Blanchardstown, Cork City Centre, and Arnotts Dublin City Centre. Whether you train for a marathon, explore trails, or focus on recovery, EOS Elite gear helps you perform better.
An Irish Brand with Global Reach
Lorcan Healy founded EOS Elite to address everyday challenges athletes face. As a professional goalkeeper, he saw how poorly designed gear slowed performance. Many products were either gimmicky or unreliable. He created a brand focused on durable, practical, and intentional design. EOS Elite quickly grew and is now trusted not only in Ireland but in over 50 countries. The philosophy is simple: no gimmicks, just equipment that supports training, competition, and recovery.
Why Runners Value Quality Gear
A running vest is more than an accessory. It is a vital tool for distance runners, marathon competitors, and serious trainers. EOS Elite running vests are lightweight, secure, and functional. They reduce bounce, lower friction, and provide storage without bulk. The main benefits include:
- Comfort on long runs: Reduced bounce and friction for marathon training and daily use.
- Hydration and storage: Secure pockets carry water, gels, and essentials with ease.
- Better recovery: A well-designed vest lowers strain and supports quicker recovery.
- Adaptability: Useful for 5K runs, marathons, or trail adventures.
Lorcan Healy: The Athlete Behind the Brand
EOS Elite began with Lorcan Healy’s story. Born to Irish parents south of London, he moved to Dublin at 18. At University College Dublin, he played professional football while completing two degrees. He often faced small but painful issues like blisters and foot slip. Instead of accepting these problems, he created solutions. EOS Elite products remove obstacles so athletes can focus fully on performance.
What started as a passion project is now a respected brand in running and recovery gear. The growth reflects Lorcan’s vision: performance equipment designed by athletes, for athletes.
- Comfort on long runs: Designed to reduce bounce and friction, making marathon training more manageable.
- Efficient hydration and storage: Secure compartments ensure you can carry water, gels, and essentials without slowing down.
- Improved recovery support: By helping maintain rhythm and reducing strain, the right vest supports better post-run recovery.
- Adaptability: From 5K runs to full marathons and trail challenges, EOS Elite vests are versatile enough for every runner’s needs.
