I believe in putting my money where my heart is. I also believe that a company should only exist if it's here to make the world a better place. A few brands have stolen my heart that way, and I will probably use and promote them forever:
Icebug
The best and most durable running shoes I've ever owned. From a company going so much further than the rest.
I currently rotate between Horizon for everyday park runs, Arcus for a comfortable mix of every terrain, and Järv during weekend long runs, especially in wet and/or snowy conditions.
Icebug is mostly for trailrunners and hikers, and their "RB9X" non-studded outersoles offer a level of traction that I've never experienced before. I bought my last pair of Icebug shoes during their "Anti Black Friday" - how about that!Proton
Based in Switzerland, this company really wants you to take control of your data. Break free of Google with Proton's rapidly growing suite of services including: email, calendar, cloud storage, AI-chat, password manager, VPN, text editor, spreadsheets, authenticator, wallet, online meets...
According to Proton, free versions will be available forever. But their paid plans are worth every euro. Use my link to get two weeks for free while making me super rich!Fairphone
Fairphone just released their 6th generation smartphone. But I'm still on the Fairphone 3 that I bought in 2019. Smartphones are so much alike these days, so why not buy the fairest, most sustainable, and - let's not forget - European version? An easy decision if you ask me.Whoop
Wearables never really interested me. Until I heard of Whoop. I ordered a free trial, received it, put in on the wrist - and never took it off. Though I was already undergoing some massive positive lifestyle changes at the time, getting the daily insights about my training, sleep, and recovery enabled me to change my behaviour from random to intentional. Wearables and their constant stream of data are not for everybody. But Whoop does a really good job helping you keep your eyes on the ball instead of your wrist (it has no screen). Those guys are clearly changing lives on a massive scale with their precision software, research efforts and beautiful designs.
