In 2002, 4,882 runners and/or pedestrians were
killed by vehicles in the US. Another 78,000 were injured. Of a combined total
of both injury accidents and fatalities, 64% occurred at night or in the early
a.m. in the dark.* Don't be a statistic! Whether you run at dusk, dawn or
somewhere in between, run smart and BE SEEN! Breathable microfiber and the best
of reflective technology make illumiNITE a revolutionary product for runners
looking for visibility on the road. illumiNITE embeds millions of microscopic
particles in the fabric to reflect light back to its source, making you visible
from over 400 feet away. The fabric's reflection shows the full and unmistakable
form of a runner to any approaching motorist.
