The footlights

If you want to take the belt-and-braces approach to safety, choose running shoes with added reflectivity. Asics Gel Nimbus 18 £145, asics.co.uk The Asics logo has subtle reflectivity – every little helps. Brooks Glycerin 14 £130, brooksrunning.co.uk A fluoro section in the forefoot and the midfoot wraps are reflective. Saucony Ride 9 Reflex £120, saucony.com/uk A reflective coating on the midsole make these easy to see at night. Nike Lunar Epic Flyknit Shield £155, nike.com/uk Highly reflective and water-repellent, too.
