Mogo Flavoured Mouthguards

cmr / October 23, 2012 / No comments

Mogo produce a range of premium mouthguards with a new twist – they’re flavoured.

Flavoured mouthguards have been around for while but not like this Mogo range: for a start these are top notch for protection and not the cheap throw away junk we’ve seen in the past.

The other unique feature from Mogo is the way they add the flavour; it’s impregnated into the plastic of the mouthguard and so doesn’t fade over time.

There are a load of other technical features but this video explains it a lot better than I can!

Check out the full range here at rugbystore.co.uk.

Under Armour Charged Cotton Storm Full Zip Hoodies

Let me just lay it out there at the start: I’m a bit of an Under Armour fan… but let me word it a bit differently.
I like kit that ‘works’. For me, clothing has to be well made, high quality, simple design, functional… stuff that does what it’s supposed to, but does it really well. If it comes in a good strong colour, even better.

So for these reasons, I like Under Armour stuff. It’s always worked well. Don’t get me wrong though; I’m not a blind following fanboy – it’s got to prove its worth. Read more

Under Armour ArmourBite Product Focus

cmr / June 15, 2011 / No comments

Under Armour have introduced a new product that makes some bold claims for performance benefits: the ArmourBite Performance Mouthwear range. Two products make up the range; the Performance Mouthpiece and the Performance Mouthguard.

Here at rugbystore, we often have the term ‘product geeks’ levelled at us… we’re not going to argue. But the UA Mouthwear range is a different kettle of fish when it comes to performance kit. With claims of average strength increase of 17%, and 25% less lactic acid build up, we had to take a closer look and so it’s been subject to the rugbystore Product Focus.

Base layers have quickly become an essential part of any sportsman or sportswoman’s kit these days and Skins came in on the ground floor on day 1.

With the release of the new Skins A400 range; what makes it different to what’s come before from Skins and all the other manufacturers?

When a new product comes along that we think warrants a bit of extra information and some further testing, we give it an in-depth look and write up a Product Focus on it. This is exactly what we did with the new Skins A400 range and you can read the results here.

We’ve long been fans of the Skins products, and the A400 range takes it to the next level of fit, comfort, compression and recovery.
