About Run Slick
Movement Changes People
We believe people were made to move.
To run farther. Explore new places. Chase difficult goals. Clear their minds. Find their people. And discover what they are capable of.
But sometimes, something as simple as friction gets in the way.
Run Slick was created to help remove that discomfort—so people can keep moving and stay present in the experience.
Born From a Real Problem
Run Slick started during founder Felipe Niada’s training for a full Ironman.
As a chemical engineer and endurance athlete, Felipe had used the usual anti-chafing products. But during long training days in heat, sweat, rain, and humidity, they often felt greasy, messy, uncomfortable, or simply did not last long enough.
So he began developing something better.
The goal was clear: create an anti-friction product that applied easily, dried quickly, stayed where it was needed, and disappeared once movement began.
After months of formulation work, testing, adjustments, and long miles, Run Slick was born.
Made for Movement
Run Slick is a clear, fast-drying, non-greasy anti-friction roll-on designed for runners, hikers, cyclists, triathletes, travelers, workers, and anyone whose movement is interrupted by rubbing or chafing.
Use it anywhere friction shows up—thighs, waistbands, bra lines, underarms, pack straps, wetsuit edges, or other high-rub areas.
You put it on.
It disappears.
And the only thing left is movement.
Tested Beyond the Comfortable
Run Slick was not developed only in a laboratory.
It has been tested through long training days, humid Southern summers, heavy rain, triathlons, trail races, and ultramarathons—including a 100-mile race through Georgia heat, humidity, and storms.
Because a product made for movement should be tested while moving.
Built Differently
Run Slick was developed around a few simple principles:
- It should feel clean, not greasy.
- It should apply clearly and easily.
- It should perform through sweat, heat, humidity, and rain.
- It should protect skin without becoming the focus of the experience.
- It should help more people move comfortably.
We are continually testing, learning, and developing new solutions for the places where friction limits movement.
More Than an Anti-Chafing Product
Run Slick began with a personal problem, but the mission is much bigger.
We want to help more people move—whether that means completing a first mile, hiking a new trail, returning after an injury, working a long shift, finishing an ultramarathon, or simply feeling more comfortable in their own body.
Because movement changes people.
And discomfort should not be the reason someone stops.
Run comfortable. Go further.
